Dewatering
Latest Articles in 60 Seconds
Industrial consultancy M Bond Pumps has engineered wheel-free drag-skid dewatering units, the diesel Cape Cobra and electric Anaconda and Boa series, for open-cast operations from the Northern Cape through Zambia to the Democratic Republic of Congo. Built from Pr. Eng.-certified S355 marine-grade steel with a 6 mm solid steel drag-floor and tractor-tow mobilisation, the skids resist theft and overturning while an isolated jackshaft drivetrain protects pump-to-engine alignment on rugged terrain; triple-failsafe priming, Silicon Carbide or Tungsten Carbide seals and automatic dry-run shutdown further guard against unplanned stoppages.
Dewatering specialists prepare for Electra Mining Africa 2026Integrated Pump Technology will showcase its Godwin diesel-driven and Grindex electric submersible pump ranges at the exhibition, advising on emergency flood response, groundwater ingress and long-term dewatering strategy. MD Jordan Marsh says success depends on selecting the right technology, correct sizing and rapid deployment, backed by a distributor network across South Africa and the rest of Africa.
Weir positions dewatering within integrated flowsheetWeir will use the same event to promote its South African-manufactured Enduron Elite screens, Warman slurry pumps and Linatex wear linings, framing dewatering as part of a flowsheet spanning comminution, classification and wear management, with local manufacturing at Alrode, Isando and Gqeberha reducing lead times.
