Water jet mining dredger is widely used to recover materials from great depths and can also extract sand from below a clay overburden. The water jet mining dredger is also called jet sand suction dredger. Water jet mining dredger is equipped with high pressure water pump and powerful sand suction pump. The water pump can generate 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 water jet mining dredger consists of dredge body, high efficiency wear resistant marine sand pump, high pressure water pump, famous brand diesel engine and discharge system. Our water jet sand suction dredger feature integrated design, high efficiency, good wear resistance, flexible operation, energy saving in the delivery of solid particles. Our water jet mining dredger is the most economic sand dredging equipment for loose fine sand in the water bottom. We can customize various small and medium water jet mining dredgers for your demands.

In March 2021, we received requests from Mali client for our B55 dredge pump units which sold years before, and learned that they need to transport the sand in the mining area which is a big river to a distance of 500 meters to get profit from mined sand business.

After many discussion, we proposed that the pump unit installed on the floating pontoons and equipped with suction head. This is very convenient for their project site. We recommended the 10 inch model to meet his high sand capacity and also the 8 inch same pump model with complete boat .

The client lived in Guangzhou and he intended to visit out factory to report to his boss in Mali. So we show him around for a day and discussed the dredger decision. Finally the client chose the 8 inch model.

However, due to the long distance required by the customer, OCEAN PUMP’s engineers suggested to choose a Yuchai 163 kilowatt diesel engine with a high head dredge pump. Meanwhile, in order to match the speed, use the famous domestic Hangzhou FENJIN 135 model gearbox.
