The pump works by using compressed air to create a vacuum for material suction and then discharge the collected material to the designated location. This working principle allows the pump to handle materials with relatively high solids content, viscous sludge and other difficult-to-flow substances. With no electric motor or other electrical components on the pump, the equipment can also be used in working environments where reducing electrical equipment is an important consideration.

Depending on the application, GN Solids Vacuum Pumps can be used for a wide range of material transfer and cleanup operations. Typical applications include thickener de-sludging, tunneling and TBM operations, sump and shaft cleaning, tailings and ash pond cleaning, digester and pond cleaning, oil spill recovery and transfer, under-belt spillage cleanup, hazardous waste recovery, drilling mud and cuttings transfer, mining slurry transfer, and offal transfer.

The equipment is also suitable for transferring high-volume sludge, muck, slime and other materials that may be difficult to handle with conventional pumping systems. Its pneumatic operation provides flexibility for applications where the installation location is remote, wet, dirty or subject to demanding operating conditions.

For sludge transfer and cleanup projects, the selection of a suitable pump depends on several factors, including material characteristics, solids concentration, required capacity, suction distance, discharge distance and installation conditions. GN can provide different pump models according to the customer's specific working conditions and transfer requirements.
