What LibertyCES's vendor documentation shows

S Series names Coal Preparation and Heavy Media directly, plus Aggregate Production, Cyclone Feed, Mill Discharge, Ore Transport, Plant Process, Tailings. Heavy Media (magnetite/ferrosilicon dense-medium circuits) is a distinct coal-prep sub-application the generic 'Mining' bucket erases — the medium is abrasive AND recovered/recirculated, which is why interchangeable metallic vs. elastomeric liners is the real selection axis.

Products cited in this application

Schurco Slurry S Series (heavy-duty end-suction/split-case, discharge 1"-18", head max 240 ft, flow max 22,000 gpm, working pressure max 300 psig; impellers with pump-out vanes front and back, interchangeable metallic or elastomeric liners)

Install / Failure Note

S Series' front-and-back pump-out vanes reduce pressure at the stuffing box/seal area — a direct design response to the packing/seal wear that's the most common failure point on an unmodified centrifugal slurry pump in heavy-media service.

Heavy media dense-medium coal-prep circuits recirculate magnetite or ferrosilicon that's both abrasive and expensive to lose — S Series' interchangeable metallic-vs-elastomeric liners are the real selection axis here, since the wrong liner choice means replacing recovered medium along with the wear part.
