- The EDDY Pump – A Solid Performer for Pumping Solids
A solids handling pump offers several benefits when pumping and transporting fluid mixed with a concentration of solids. Most traditional pumps do not do well on solids handling applications. The EDDY Solids Handling and Slurry Pumps are designed with a large flow path that is well suited for high solids, stringy materials and heavy slurry situations. These slurry pumps and solids handling pumps are designed to handle difficult, abrasive slurries commonly found in dredging, manufacturing, mine tailings, and many other industrial applications.
On other traditional pumps, these slurries will quickly wear down the pump system and the pump’s critical components. When this happens, maintenance must be performed at much quicker intervals than what would be found when pumping non-solids, thus creating unnecessary downtime and loss of production. In these types of applications the EDDY Pump is the premier choice.
Solids Handling Pump Features
Some of the common features found on solids handling pumps include alternative impellers (to prevent clogging with better solids handling), recessed impellers (to allow passage of larger solids), different metal types (to withstand corrosion and/or abrasive materials). Sometimes, in critical applications such as sewage handling in wastewater applications, solids handling pumps are fitted with grinders or cutters to reduce the size of solids, making it even easier to pump through the whole system with high efficiency and without issues.
Solids handling pumps are indispensable in wastewater applications, providing reliable and efficient transport of solids-laden fluids throughout the treatment process. Their design and functionality are critical for maintaining the smooth operation of wastewater treatment facilities and safeguarding wastewater treatment processes.

Large Solids Handling Capabilities of an EDDY Pump
Recessed Rotor
Rotor Designed for Solids
Our rotor technology effectively agitates and pumps material of up to 70% solids by volume using a geometrically shaped energy generating rotor. This is why Eddy Pump models are some of the strongest, and most helpful solids handling pumps for a variety of applications.
No Critical Tolerances
Heavy Duty Construction
100% Made in the USA, the EDDY pump is one of the toughest solids handling pumps in the world and can withstand most of the harshest pump applications that exist. The pump is available in a variety of metals and alloys to meet your application needs, and requires very little service to perform with high efficiency.
