Ocmis MFTRS 94-40K PTO Driven Slurry Centrifugal Pumps

Overview

The Ocmis MFTRS 94-40K is a high-performance PTO-driven slurry centrifugal pump engineered in Italy for demanding agricultural and industrial applications. Manufactured by Ocmis, a renowned specialist in irrigation and liquid handling equipment, this version K pump is specifically designed for lifting and transporting thick sludge, fibrous slurry, and heavily contaminated water. The MFTRS 94-40K combines robust construction with advanced centrifugal technology to deliver reliable performance in challenging environments where conventional pumps struggle, making it an ideal solution for agricultural waste management, slurry spreading operations, and industrial fluid transport.

What distinguishes the MFTRS 94-40K from standard slurry pumps is its comprehensive engineering approach to handling difficult fluids with high suspended solid content. The pump features a powerful rotary blade chopper and counter-chopper system manufactured from heat-treated and ground steel, which effectively processes fibrous materials before they reach the impeller. Its special three-blade open impeller design works in tandem with the chopper system to handle thick slurry with suspended particles, whilst the silicon carbide mechanical seal with external auxiliary lubrication ensures long-term reliability. The multiplier gearbox incorporates an exclusive internal water circulation cooling system that guarantees extended service life even during prolonged operation under demanding conditions, setting this model apart as a purpose-built solution for high-pressure slurry pumping applications.

Key Features & Benefits

• Rotary Blade Chopper and Counter-Chopper System: Heat-treated and precision-ground steel components effectively macerate fibrous materials and solid particles before they enter the pump chamber, preventing blockages and enabling continuous operation with thick agricultural slurry, reducing downtime and maintenance interventions whilst extending component life.
• Special Three-Blade Open Impeller Design: The vanguard design with three open blades provides optimal hydraulic efficiency for thick fluids whilst allowing passage of suspended solids and fibrous materials without clogging, delivering consistent high working pressures essential for slurry distribution systems across agricultural operations.
• Silicon Carbide Mechanical Seal with Auxiliary Lubrication: Contact faces manufactured from silicon carbide offer exceptional wear resistance and longevity, whilst the external tank auxiliary lubrication system ensures continuous seal cooling and lubrication, dramatically extending seal life even when pumping abrasive slurry mixtures.
• High-Performance Helical Spur Gear Multiplier: The gearbox features two precision helical spur gears operating in an oil bath, with the pump shaft and driven pinion forming an integrated assembly supported by double-row ball bearings and taper roller bearings, ensuring smooth power transmission, reduced vibration, and exceptional durability under continuous high-load operation.
• Internal Water Circulation Cooling System: The multiplier gearbox incorporates an exclusive internal water circulation cooling mechanism that maintains optimal operating temperatures during extended working periods, preventing thermal damage to mechanical components and guaranteeing reliable performance even in harsh agricultural environments with continuous duty cycles.
• Volute Design Pump Body with Flexible Configuration: The single-impeller volute design optimises fluid dynamics for efficient slurry handling, with axial suction inlet and upward radial outlet positions providing versatile installation options, and the ability to rotate the suction inlet by 90 degrees in both directions accommodating diverse piping configurations without additional fittings.
• PTO-Driven Power System: Direct connection to tractor power take-off eliminates the need for separate engines, reducing initial investment and ongoing fuel costs whilst providing reliable power delivery matched to agricultural equipment already present on farm operations, maximising operational flexibility and cost-effectiveness.
• Robust Italian Engineering: Manufactured in Italy to exacting quality standards, the pump combines superior materials selection with precision manufacturing processes, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding agricultural and industrial applications where equipment failure results in costly operational disruptions and environmental concerns.
• Multi-Application Versatility: Beyond agricultural slurry handling, the pump's robust design makes it suitable for industrial applications including transport of pulps, molasses, and other viscous fluids with suspended solids, providing operational flexibility for contractors and industrial facilities requiring a single pump for multiple challenging fluid handling tasks.

Technical Specifications

Ideal Applications

• Agricultural Slurry Spreading: Purpose-designed for pumping thick livestock slurry containing fibrous materials and solid particles from storage lagoons to field distribution equipment, with the chopper system processing straw and bedding materials for continuous flow.
• High-Pressure Irrigation with Contaminated Water: Ideal for mobile and fixed irrigation systems requiring elevated working pressures whilst handling water sources with suspended solids, mud, and organic matter, ensuring reliable operation where water quality prohibits use of standard irrigation pumps.
• Agricultural Waste Management: Effective for transferring digestate from biogas plants, processing dairy and livestock effluent, and handling agricultural by-products with high solid content, providing essential infrastructure for modern farm waste handling and nutrient recycling programmes.
• Industrial Fluid Transport: Suitable for industrial facilities requiring transport of viscous fluids including pulps, molasses, food processing waste streams, and other challenging liquids with suspended particles, offering versatility beyond agricultural applications.
• Dirty Water Pumping for Construction and Mining: Capable of handling heavily contaminated water from construction site dewatering, mine drainage, and excavation operations where suspended sediment and debris would damage conventional pumps.
• Municipal and Environmental Applications: Effective for wastewater treatment plant operations, stormwater management with high sediment loads, and environmental remediation projects requiring reliable pumping of contaminated fluids under demanding continuous-duty conditions.
