Mining
In the mining industry, equipment performance and uptime are crucial. Many processes require a constant flow of gland water—regardless of pressure fluctuations—to protect pumps and seals from damage and wear.
BT-Maric constant flow valves are widely used in mining operations to maintain stable, pre-set flow rates for gland water systems, particularly in demanding and remote environments.
Key Advantages in Mining Applications
- Gland Flushing Systems: Provides stable flushing water to centrifugal and slurry pump glands, maintaining performance and protecting internal components.
- Mechanical Seal Protection: Maintains a steady water flow to mechanical seals, reducing risk of failure due to pressure variation or inconsistent supply.
- Water Conservation in Remote Sites: Prevents excess gland water usage in remote or arid mining locations where water availability is limited.
- Flow Stabilization in Shared Supply Systems: Ensures even distribution of water when multiple pumps rely on a shared gland water line, supporting system reliability even during partial failures.
1. Protects Pumps and Mechanical Seals
BT-Maric constant flow valves ensure a consistent supply of gland water to gland-packing, stuffing boxes, and mechanical seals—minimizing wear and preventing overheating or contamination of pump components.
2. Prevents Overuse and Waste of Water
By regulating flow precisely, the constant flow valves conserve valuable gland water, which is especially important in arid mining regions with limited water supply.
3. Improves Reliability of Gland Water Systems
In systems where multiple pump glands share a common water supply, limiting flow ensures that sufficient gland water remains available—even if one or more glands fail.
4. Reduces Slurry Dilution and Maximizes Gland Life
Controlled water flow helps prevent unnecessary dilution of slurry or product while extending the life of gland components—reducing maintenance and unplanned downtime.
Common Mining Applications
BT-Maric constant flow valves are ideal for the following tasks in mining operations:
