Abstract

A double-suction, submerged pump fitted with an agitator beneath its lower suction inlet is disclosed. The pump intended particularly for use as a slurry pump is driven by an elongated drive shaft by a remote motor. The motor and drive shaft bearings are located in a substantially non-corrosive, non-erosive environment above the body of slurry being pumped.
