Tobee® Dredge pump parts can be delivered in three different configurations:
• Heavy Duty; a double-walled dredge pump construction fully equipped with interchangeable wear parts. Excellent configuration for the most demanding operations.
• Performance; a single-walled construction furnished with, where possible, replaceable wear parts. An all-purpose dredge pump and balanced option as regards weight, size and replaceable wear parts.
• Easy; for operations that are less demanding. This is a single-walled construction without any replaceable wear parts - a pump construction with as few components as possible.
The material to be dredged is almost always abrasive, sometimes to extremes. The threat of wear does not so much lie in the direct cost of an item to be replaced, but in the resulting downtime due to installation, in the case of both larger and smaller vessels. An installation which is not working while undergoing maintenance or repair can cost many times more than a worn part. Therefore dredge pump casings, dredge pump impellers and dredge pump wear plates are available in extremely wear-resistant materials.
