Indus Industrial Group supplies severe-duty Submersible Sludge, Sand, and Slurry Agitator Pumps engineered across discharge diameters from DN80 to DN250 with heavy electric motor ratings from 7.5 kW to 90 kW (400V 50Hz, IP68) according to ISO 9906 standards. Equipped with high-chromium white iron rotating agitator heads (28% Chrome, hardness 60–65 HRC) mounted beneath the suction plate, these heavy pumps mechanically churn settled mud, dense silt, sand, and river sediment into suspension before pumping, preventing sumps and canals across Iraq from silting up.

Tigris and Euphrates river raw water intake desilting, water treatment plant clarifier sludge removal, deep civil foundation bentonite slurry dewatering, canal dredging, and port sand accumulation removal across Baghdad, Basra, Wasit, Erbil, and Nineveh.
Heavy-Duty Submersible Sludge and Sand Agitator Pumps represent the ultimate heavy slurry dewatering technology for river dredging, water treatment plant clarifier desludging, raw river intake desilting, and civil foundation excavation across Iraq. In the Tigris and Euphrates river basins, high sediment transport deposits thousands of tons of dense silt, sand, and mud in intake basins, intake channels, and water treatment clarifiers in Baghdad, Basra, and Wasit. Standard wastewater pumps cannot pump settled sediment; they pump only the clear water on top, leaving behind solid packed mud that eventually blocks intakes.
Indus agitator pumps solve this operational crisis through a heavy, high-hardness rotating mechanical agitator mounted directly onto the extended pump shaft below the suction inlet. Cast from 28% high-chromium white iron (hardness 60–65 Rockwell C), the agitator rotates at high speed, creating high-energy turbulence that fluidizes compacted sand and settled sludge into a homogeneous slurry that is pulled directly into the high-chrome semi-open slurry impeller. The pump easily handles slurries with specific gravities up to 1.3 to 1.6 and solid concentrations up to 50% by weight.
The motor is protected by a heavy steel cooling jacket that allows continuous pumping even when the motor is only partially submerged. Dual silicon carbide mechanical seals running in an oil bath are shielded by an external labyrinth sand deflector ring. Staged at our Erbil Heavy Yard, Baghdad Central Depot, and Basra Port Hub, Indus supplies agitator slurry pumps with heavy-duty discharge hoses, cable floats, and full EN 10204 3.1 inspection certification.
The rotating agitator head acts like an underwater mixer blade directly below the pump suction. It breaks up packed silt and sand, churning it into a thick liquid slurry that is immediately sucked through the pump and discharged, keeping intake basins completely clear of silt deposits.
All wear components (agitator, impeller, casing liner, and suction cover) are cast from 28% high-chromium white alloy iron vacuum heat-treated to 60–65 HRC hardness, providing up to 5 times longer wear life than standard ductile iron in abrasive sand slurries.
Yes. Indus agitator slurry pumps feature an integrated outer motor cooling jacket where pumped fluid circulates around the motor frame before discharging, allowing continuous 24/7 dewatering even when the motor is only partially submerged.
