When standard pumps choke on high-density solids, the TUSSU® Hydraulic Submersible Dredging Pump takes over. Engineered for the most punishing marine, mining, and industrial environments, this heavy-duty excavator-mounted and crane-suspended dredge pump delivers unmatched solids-handling performance where electric pumps fail.
From deep-sea sand mining to high-concentration tailing management, TUSSU® transforms your existing hydraulic machinery into a high-capacity dredging powerhouse.
Why Leading Marine & Mining Contractors Choose TUSSU®
1. High-Concentration Solids Handling
Equipped with proprietary high-chrome wear parts and integrated side cutters (or dual agitators), the TUSSU® hydraulic slurry pump breaks up compacted sediment easily. It moves up to 60% solids by weight, making it ideal for thick sludge, bentonite, and coarse sand.
2. Seamless Excavator & Power Pack Integration
Designed for maximum versatility, our pumps easily mount onto standard excavators (CAT, Komatsu, Hitachi, Volvo) or connect directly to hydraulic power packs (HPU). It utilizes your machine’s existing hydraulic circuit to deliver maximum torque and variable speed control.
3. Rugged Durability in Abrasive Environments
Mining and dredging are brutal on equipment. TUSSU® pumps feature heavy-duty casting, specialized mechanical seals, and replaceable wear plates to withstand extreme abrasion, reducing downtime and lowering your total cost of ownership (TCO).
Core Applications
-
Marine & Harbor Dredging: Capital dredging, port maintenance, silt removal, and coastal reclamation.
-
Tailings & Mining Operations: Pumping tailings ponds, clearing fly ash pits, iron ore slurry transfer, and open-pit dewatering.
-
Industrial Sludge Management: Cleaning settling ponds, oil sludge recovery, and bentonite pumping for civil engineering.
-
Inland Waterway Restoration: Desilting rivers, lakes, canals, and agricultural reservoirs without damaging surrounding infrastructure.
Frequently Asked Questions (Google Rank-Ready)
What are the advantages of a hydraulic submersible pump over an electric dredge pump?
Hydraulic submersible pumps offer a much higher power-to-weight ratio and can handle fluctuating loads without risking motor burnout. Unlike electric pumps, hydraulic models are inherently safe for deep-water submersion, offer infinitely variable speed control, and can handle highly viscous slurries without stalling.
Can the TUSSU® pump be mounted on any excavator?
Yes. TUSSU® hydraulic dredging pumps are designed with universal adaptation plates. They can be mounted on the boom of most major excavator brands or suspended from a crane/A-frame, depending on your depth requirements.
How does the pump handle packed or consolidated sand?
Our pumps can be equipped with mechanical agitators, high-pressure water jetting rings, or hydraulic side cutters. These attachments agitate and fluidize settled solids, mixing them with water so the impeller can easily pump the high-density slurry.
