Gas scrubber
pumps
Since the introduction of the first
Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) systems in the 1970s, Weir Minerals
has led the world in the supply of more than 4,000 specially
designed Warman® FGD pumps.
Realizing that modern flue gas
absorber technology would require new and innovative pump designs,
Weir Minerals developed the new high performance
Warman® GSL pump.

Benefits
Back pull out design
- Minimum number of larger diameter fasteners allows all rotating
and wearing components, including the mechanical seal, to be
inspected without disturbing the suction or discharge
pipework.
Modular design bearing cartridge
- Allows simple removal of the entire assembly for maintenance in
a clean environment. Split release collar fitted on bearing side of
the shaft sleeve making impeller removal fast and simple.
Long wear life
- Specifically designed for handling abrasive and corrosive
conditions found in FGD applications, the GSL design fully utilizes
Weir Minerals' long experience in solids pumping and FGD with a
design built to last.
Lower corrosion in impellers
- Specially designed high chromium irons, developed in Weir
Minerals' material technology laboratories, combined with optimum
impeller vane designs minimize wear in pumps.
No corrosion in liners
- Natural rubber liners are corrosion proof against acidic
limestone / gypsum slurries, avoiding corrosion risks which can
plague metal lined pumps, particularly when low pH slurries are
left within the pumps when not operating.
Long bearing and mechanical seal life
- Large diameter, very stiff shaft and short impeller overhand
minimizes shaft deflection and so provides excellent conditions for
the mechanical seal. Fully protected oversized heavy duty oil
lubricated roller and taper roller bearings carry all the radical
and thrust loads with unusually high service factors.
