| Applies when | abrasive slurry, abrasive, mining slurry |
|---|---|
| Avoid | centrifugal (Pump) |
| Recommend instead | Graco QUANTM (Pump) |
| Rationale | Centrifugal pumps fail via seal degradation in abrasive slurry service; electric diaphragm pumps remove that failure mode. |
| Confidence | confirmed |
