Flowrun Industries manufactures the FRFP — a Filter Press Side Suction Centrifugal Pump engineered for reliable, high-efficiency slurry transfer across diverse industrial processes. With a side suction configuration optimised for abrasive fluids and solid-laden media, the FRFP maintains uninterrupted flow to filter press systems, ensuring consistent filtration cycles and maximum uptime.
Built from corrosion-resistant, heavy-duty materials, the FRFP is designed to perform in the most demanding environments — from chemical processing and mining to ceramics and wastewater treatment. Its hydraulically efficient design minimises energy draw while sustaining the high discharge pressures that filter press feeding demands.
Low maintenance, long service life, and sector-proven reliability make the FRFP the dependable choice for plant operators who can’t afford process interruptions.

Key Features
- The FRFP’s side suction geometry draws in abrasive, solid-laden fluids with minimal turbulence — reducing inlet wear, protecting internal components, and sustaining consistent flow from the first stroke to the last.
- Built to run hard and run long. The FRFP’s robust casing and internals are rated for sustained high-pressure duty cycles — engineered for plants that operate around the clock without room for mechanical failure.
- The high-performance impeller in open and semi-open configurations handles slurries and particulate-laden media without clogging — delivering steady discharge pressure and high hydraulic efficiency across variable loads.
- Engineered to absorb high radial and axial loads without fatigue. The FRFP’s shaft and bearing assembly keeps operation smooth and vibration-free — significantly extending pump service life in demanding slurry applications.
- Delivers the sustained discharge pressure that filter press feeding demands. The FRFP maintains pressure consistency cycle after cycle — ensuring complete cake formation and reliable filtration output every time.
- Replaceable wear components and accessible internals mean servicing the FRFP is fast and straightforward. Planned maintenance stays planned — with minimal unscheduled downtime and extended pump life built into the design from the start.
