About Dragflow

Dragflow was founded in the late 1980's as a manufacturer of high quality submersible dredging pumps for
the European market. With early successes we expanded the product line to a full range of electric and
hydraulic pumps and small turn key dredges.
Through our commitment to quality products, dependable service and continuous improvement dragflow has
become established worldwide as the pump of choice for severe service conditions where other pumps fail.
Dragflow North America offers the toughest Slurry Agitator Submersible Pumps and Dredges in the Industry
for handling rocks, gravel, sand, minerals, bentonite, bitunen and others, with the shortest delivery times to
the US market.

Dragflow Submersible Pump and Cutter Features


DRAGFLOW PUMPS are very heavy duty submersible pumps
capable of handling sand and slurries with up to 5 inch rocks.
The slurry can be piped to its destination eliminating haul
trucks, conveyor belts and other mechanical earth moving
equipment. Using Dragflow pumps saves labor and
maintenance costs.
With its incorporated agitator the pump will dig into the
material and is capable of handling up to 70% solids by
weight.
Optional water jets and cutter heads (shown in picture) allow
these pumps to disaggregate and pick up sediments in a
slurry of high density and high specific gravity.

1. HIGH EFFICIENCY AGITATOR

5. THRUST BEARINGS

The excavating action is created by the hardened high


chrome agitator blades. They create a current that lifts
settled sediments conveying them to the suction of the
impeller which delivers a continuous flow of solids to the
pump discharge.

All Dragflow models have been designed with dual thrust bearings
to reduce vibration and counter thrust loads in both directions.

2. LOW OPERATING RPM


Low operating RPM promotes low wear rates and
extended component life. When compared to other
pumps of similar capacity Dragflow has a lower operating
speed. For example the EL-150 has an amazingly low
operating speed of 650 rpm.

3. OVERSIZED MOTORS
All Dragflow electric motors are oversized and are
designed for slurries up to 1.6 SG. An Hydraulic drive
version is also available providing higher output. Dragflow
hydraulic augers EXHY can be attached directly to the
pump creating a self contained excavating system for
hard compacted sand where a mechanical excavator
would otherwise be required.

4. ROBUST CONSTRUCTION
Long life and reliability are guaranteed by robust heavyduty construction. Extra strong wear components provide
extended life between spare part changes. El-150 weights
3,500 Kg. which is significantly heavier than comparable
150 HP sand pumps. All parts that are exposed or
subjected to abrasive wear are manufactured in GS 500 or
Hi Chrome alloys.

6. SOLIDS HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS


Dragflow sand pump parts have been specially designed and
shaped to provide outstanding performance, providing superb
solids handling capabilities but with reduced wear (and solid size
up to 120 mm).

7. STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS
Adjustable Hi-Chrome suction side Wear Plate maintains
maximum performance for extended periods by a simple
adjustment of the gap between the wear plate and the impeller.
Service Bolt: These bolts allow easy pump disassembly, a built in
service tool. Replaceable wear parts: casings, impellers, wear
plates all can be replaced independently
Reversible agitator: doubles the life of the agitator
Lube Oil Inspection Ports: A wide-angle port outside the pump
ensures easy inspection of shaft seal oil levels as well as providing
easy access for oil replacement.
