2-Inch Slurry Pump | HD-2000
Move More Solids. Waste Less Water.
Designed for 40-70% Solids by Weight
The EDDY Pump HD-2000 is a 2-inch slurry pump for high-solids slurry transfer, sludge, grit, sand, sediment, tailings, and industrial solids where a compact pump still needs meaningful solids handling and production.
Built around the patented EDDY Pump non-clog design, this pump platform is available in multiple configuration paths depending on the application, power source, duty point, and deployment method.

Why Choose the HD-2000?
Choose the HD-2000 when the job requires more solids handling and production than a 1-inch pump, but the flow target, pipeline, or access conditions do not justify moving to a 4-inch platform.
Strong fit for small industrial slurry pumping where the 1-inch platform is too small but the 4-inch platform is more pump than the duty point needs.
Built around the EDDY Pump patented non-clog slurry pump design.
Designed for abrasive, dense, and solids-laden slurry service.
Flexible configuration options for plant, field, dredging, and engineered system applications.

Same EDDY Pump Platform, Multiple Configurations
The HD-2000 pump platform can be configured for multiple slurry pumping applications depending on the jobsite, power source, installation method, and material being pumped. Start with the core pump size, then choose the configuration that fits how the slurry will be collected, moved, and discharged.
| Configuration | Best Fit | When to Choose This Configuration | Link |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flooded Suction Slurry Pump |
Fixed plant, process, tank, pit, and sump applications where the pump is installed below liquid level and gravity helps feed the suction side. |
Use when the slurry source can gravity-feed the pump and the customer wants a surface-mounted installation. |
View Flooded Suction Pumps → |
| Submersible Slurry Pump | Pits, ponds, lagoons, tanks, basins, and applications where the pump operates directly in the slurry source. |
Use when suction lift is a problem or when the pump needs to sit close to settled solids. |
View Submersible Slurry Pumps → |
| Electric Self-Priming Slurry Pump |
Surface-mounted applications where electric power is available but the pump must sit above or away from the slurry source. |
Use when the customer wants surface access, clean electric power, and self-prime capability. |
View Self-Priming Pumps → |
| Diesel Self-Priming Slurry Pump | Remote jobsites, dredging support, construction, bypass, emergency pumping, and mobile field applications where grid power is unavailable. |
Use when mobility and a self-contained field package matter. |
View Diesel Self-Priming Pumps → |
| Hydraulic / HPU-Powered Slurry Pump |
Excavator attachments, cable-deployed pumps, diver-operated pumps, dredging systems, and hydraulic power unit applications. |
Use when the pump is driven by an excavator, hydraulic power unit, cutterhead system, auger system, or specialty dredging package. |
View Excavator Pump Attachments → |
| Booster / Pipeline Support |
Long discharge lines, elevation changes, high friction losses, or large pipeline transfer projects. |
Use when one pump cannot maintain the required flow and head across the full discharge line. |
View Booster Pumps → |
| Dredging and Solids Removal Systems |
Pond, lagoon, mine tailings, sediment, sludge, and industrial cleanout projects where the pump is integrated into a dredging system. |
Use when the buyer is solving a material-removal problem, not just buying a standalone pump. |

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 2-Inch Slurry Pump used for?
The 2-Inch Slurry Pump is used to pump abrasive, high-solids slurry, sludge, grit, sediment, tailings, ash, dredged material, and industrial solids in applications where conventional centrifugal pumps may clog, wear quickly, or require excessive dilution water.
How do I choose the right 2-Inch Slurry Pump configuration?
Start with slurry density, solids size, percent solids, required flow, total dynamic head, discharge distance, power availability, and installation method. Then choose the HD-2000 configuration that fits the jobsite: flooded suction, submersible, self-priming, diesel, hydraulic / HPU-powered, booster-supported, or dredging system integrated.
When should I move up or down in pump size?
Move down when the duty point does not require the 2-Inch Slurry Pump flow, solids handling, or production range. Move up when head, discharge distance, solids size, slurry density, or production target pushes the 2-Inch Slurry Pump beyond the efficient operating range.
What is the 2-Inch Slurry Pump best used for?
The 2-Inch Slurry Pump is best used for small industrial slurry pumping where the 1-inch platform is too small but the 4-inch platform is more pump than the duty point needs where abrasive, dense, or solids-laden material must be moved with less clogging and less dependence on dilution water.
Can the 2-Inch Slurry Pump handle high-solids slurry?
Yes. The 2-Inch Slurry Pump platform is designed for high-solids slurry service and is commonly specified around 40-70% solids by weight, application dependent.
What configurations are available for the 2-Inch Slurry Pump?
Depending on the final duty point and application review, the platform may be configured as electric direct-drive, submersible electric, electric self-priming, diesel self-priming, hydraulic / HPU-powered, booster-supported, or integrated into a dredging system.
How should the 2-Inch Slurry Pump be selected?
Final selection should be based on slurry density, solids size, total dynamic head, discharge distance, pipe size, elevation change, abrasiveness, percent solids by weight, available power, and duty cycle.
