In flood control, mining operations, municipal engineering, and water conservancy projects, slurry pumps are mission-critical equipment responsible for continuous fluid transfer under harsh conditions. Their operational stability directly affects project schedules, on-site safety, and overall system reliability.
However, traditional slurry pumping systems have long suffered from a fundamental limitation: the lack of integrated intelligent monitoring and system-level coordination. As a result, operators face unclear operating conditions, delayed fault detection, inefficient maintenance, and elevated safety risks. In flood control scenarios especially, unexpected equipment failures can lead to severe consequences such as drainage interruption, water backflow, infrastructure damage, and prolonged downtime.
To address these challenges at their root, ZONDAR leverages years of expertise in hydraulic engineering and intelligent control systems to introduce the ZONDAR Intelligent Hydraulic Slurry Pump System Solution.
This is not a simple pump upgrade—it is a fully integrated, intelligent drainage system combining customized hydraulic power units, high-performance hydraulic slurry pumps, and intelligent drainage robots to deliver safe, efficient, and fully controllable flood control operations.
Industry Pain Points: Hidden Risks of Traditional Slurry Pump Systems
In conventional drainage and slurry transfer operations, pump performance is often judged through manual inspection and experience-based judgement. The absence of real-time monitoring and intelligent diagnostics creates multiple systemic risks:
1. Unclear Operating Status and Hidden Failure Risks
Without real-time monitoring of key parameters such as rotational speed, hydraulic pressure, flow rate, and temperature, operators cannot accurately assess whether the pump is operating within optimal ranges. Abnormal conditions such as overload, dry running, or cavitation often go unnoticed until severe wear or component failure occurs.
2. Delayed Fault Warnings and Escalating Losses
Traditional systems lack predictive alarms. Equipment issues are usually discovered only after a breakdown has already caused pump shutdown. This leads to increased repair costs, extended downtime, and, in flood control scenarios, potentially catastrophic consequences including flooding escalation and project delays.
3. Low Maintenance Efficiency and High Labor Costs
Manual inspections require significant manpower and are limited by inspection frequency and site accessibility. In remote areas, underground spaces, or extreme weather conditions, routine inspection becomes both inefficient and unsafe, further increasing operational risk and lifecycle cost.
A System-Level Solution: Intelligent, Integrated, and Fully Matched
The ZONDAR Intelligent Hydraulic Slurry Pump System Solution is built around a core philosophy:
“Full-chain integration + intelligent control + high-efficiency operation.”
The solution integrates:
Customized hydraulic power units
ZONDAR hydraulic slurry pumps
Intelligent drainage robots
All components are designed, manufactured, and optimized as a single system, ensuring seamless compatibility, faster deployment, and superior operational stability.

ZONDAR offers a full range of ZDP Series hydraulic power units, from compact mobile models to high-output twin-engine systems.
Stable hydraulic output with ≤ ±2% fluctuation
Energy consumption reduced by over 15% compared to conventional units
Reliable operation in extreme environments from –20°C to +60°C
Customizable fuel tank capacity, engine power, and cooling systems (air or water)
Integrated intelligent cooling, overload protection, and operational status monitoring ensure consistent and safe power delivery to all downstream equipment.
High-Performance Hydraulic Slurry Pumps
The ZDTP Series hydraulic slurry pumps cover models from ZDTP-02 to ZDTP-06, offering:
Flow rates from 50 m³/h to 300 m³/h
Head ranges from 25 m to 45 m
Capability to handle slurry with solid content up to 25%
Excellent performance with abrasive and corrosive media
Pump components are manufactured from high-chromium wear-resistant alloys, delivering service life up to three times longer than standard materials. Compact structural design reduces installation space by 20% and enables rapid deployment—often within 30 minutes.
Hydraulic drive ensures smooth startup, wide speed regulation, and overload resistance up to 1.5 times rated load, maintaining stable output under fluctuating conditions.
Intelligent Drainage Robots
The ZONDAR ZDPSC Series drainage robots are engineered for hazardous and confined environments:
Maximum wading depth: 700 mm
Remote control distance up to 1,000 m
Rapid obstacle response time ≤ 0.5 seconds
Autonomous mobility and flexible path planning
Equipped with integrated ZDTP slurry pump modules, these robots can operate independently in deep water, toxic environments, or confined spaces—eliminating the need for personnel entry and increasing drainage efficiency by more than five times compared to manual operations.
Key Advantage 2: Full-Chain Coordination for Higher Efficiency and Reliability
ZONDAR’s solution is not a simple aggregation of equipment but a deeply coordinated intelligent system.
Real-time monitoring of pump performance and hydraulic load
Dynamic adjustment of power output based on actual operating demand
Intelligent alarm systems to prevent sudden shutdowns
Coordinated operation between mobile robots and fixed pump stations
Modular pump units that can be quickly detached and operated independently
This system-level coordination improves overall drainage efficiency by over 40% and reduces equipment failure rates by approximately 60%, ensuring stable, continuous operation even in complex scenarios.
Multi-Scenario Applications Across Industries
Municipal Flood Control
For urban flooding, underground garages, and drainage tunnels, ZONDAR systems can be deployed rapidly. A typical configuration can be operational within 30 minutes, doubling emergency response speed. Drainage robots access narrow streets and underground spaces that traditional equipment cannot reach, ensuring full-area coverage.
Mining Operations
Designed for tailings discharge and underground water removal, ZONDAR systems handle high-abrasion, high-solid-content slurry with exceptional reliability. Large-flow hydraulic submersible pumps combined with high-output power units deliver stable performance, reducing unplanned shutdowns and enhancing mine safety.
Emergency Disaster Response
During typhoons, heavy rainfall, or sudden flooding events, ZONDAR’s modular system design enables rapid transport by truck. On-site assembly requires minimal manpower, while unmanned robotic operation ensures safe and effective drainage in high-risk environments.
Conclusion: Redefining the Future of Intelligent Drainage
The limitations of traditional slurry pump systems—lack of intelligence, poor integration, and low reliability—have become critical bottlenecks for modern flood control and drainage operations.
The ZONDAR Intelligent Hydraulic Slurry Pump System Solution addresses these challenges through full-system integration, intelligent coordination, and scenario-specific customization, delivering a new benchmark for efficiency, safety, and operational control.
