Used For De-Sitling Of Dams And Can Assist To Resolve The Water Crisis In Drought Stricken Areas Hazlet on Pumps has been actively involved with the de-silting of tailings dams – specifically in Canada. The HIPPO Flameproof Medium-High Voltage; High Volume; Submersible Slurry Pump® has successfully been used to de-silt the tailings dam at the Oil Sands mines in Fort McMurray, Alberta since 2005. The HIPPO Model 250-300M HIPPO Submersible Slurry Pumps are used to successfully combat the threat of pollution by de-silting the tailings dams. The pumps operate at a power supply of 4160 Volts; absorbing 350 kW while pumping slurry at a rate of 1 000 m3/h and at a head of 78 m, under temperature conditions varying from -40 oC in the winter to +30oC in the summer.
