TBG Ready-mix Concrete, Germany
		The project: Recycling basin on a ready-mix concrete mixing facility Executing company: TBG Transportbeton Lüssen, Bremen The problem: The concrete mixer is cleaned with water, which is then diverted to the recycling basin where cement slurry is deposited. Our solution: A type KTZ45.5 submersible pump is used to pump the recycling water containing the cement slurry to the mixing system. The pump has been in continuous operation for three years and shows no signs of wear.
In the event of abrasive and corrosive utilization, stronger wear and tear will take place naturally in certain components. With regards to the above application wear and tear can take place mainly in impeller, suction plate, shaft sleeve, oil ring, mechanical seal, pump casing, strainer, motor casing and discharge coupling. Depending on the working conditions the lifetime of those parts might vary significantly and can be shorter than the legal warranty period. In this regard, please pay attention to our general conditions of sales (www.tsurumi-europe.com/english/GCS.htm) that we also send to you by mail on request.
