Sand suction equipment is widely used to recover underwater materials from great depths and can also extract sand from below a clay overburden. Sand suction equipment is also called jet sand suction dredger. Sand suction equipment is equipped with high pressure water pump and powerful sand suction pump. The water pump can produce high pressure high speed water jet to impact the bottom of sand layer and splashing the mixed sand around the suction head, and the sand suction pump conveys the sand to the destination through the discharge pipe.

OCEAN Pump brand Sand suction equipment consists of dredger body, high efficiency wear resistant marine sand pump, high pressure water pump, famous brand diesel engine and discharge system.

OCEAN Pump had been dedicated in designing and manufacturing sand pump, slurry pump, gravel pump and sand dredgers for over 20 years. Our sand pump and sand dredge products had been exported to over 60 countries.

Our high efficiency jet suction dredger series are widely used for sand dredging in rivers, delisting lakes and ponds, reclaiming land, cleaning ports and pumping sand, it is also suitable for exploiting seashore, clearing port and pier, etc.

Our Cameroon customer wanted to order a Suction dredger to suck the fine sand from a small river. There were no big stones or gravels in the river. The dredging depth was around 5-10 meters, and they required 100 m 3 sand per hour, the discharge distance was 500-800 meters. According to these data, we chose a jet suction dredger specification for customer. We recommended OCEAN PUMP 200 PNS -30 high efficiency wear resistant marine sand pump to be equipped into the jet suction dredger, the sand pump was driven by Yuchai 162 KW diesel engine. As the dredging depth was not very deep, we chose manual hoist instead of electric winch to lift the sand suction rubber hose in front of the jet suction dredger. The high pressure water pump and anchor winch were both driven by diesel engine. By this way, the whole river dredging system was not need to use the generator set, it was not only retains the use of function, but also saved the customer’s costs.

In the process of communicating with customers, we understood that the customer had the ability to weld the jet suction dredger body by himself. So we can only provide the main pontoon, he would weld the side pontoons by himself. In the main pontoon, we connected the sand dredging pump with diesel engine, water pump with diesel engine, and other accessories. At the same time, we provided the side pontoons drawings to customer, and then he welded the side pontoons in the local place. With this way, customer saved processing costs and transportation costs.

For sand discharge pipe and jet suction dredger floater, customer needed 8 inch HDPE pipes, it would need 3 pairs floaters every 10 meters pipes, 500 meters pipes needed 150 pairs floaters. As customer had some old oil drums around his worksite, so he used the oil drums instead of floaters.
