EP118C23 Slurry Pump Lantern Restrictor is used for 6x4 EE AHP Slurry Pump
In slurry pumps, a slurry pump lantern restrictor is located between slurry pump gland packing and slurry pump impeller. It works as a lantern ring, but at the same time has clearances that restrict the flow into the pump. These clearances result in significantly more flush water being required, as there is no longer the interference fit between the ring of gland packing and slurry pump shaft.
By using a lantern restrictor, if the gland flush is always on, at a higher pressure than in the slurry pump wet end parts and the flush water is clean, the packing never encounters slurry and the sleeve and packing life is usually acceptable. Because the sleeve remains in good condition, the leakage is acceptable.
