Dredge Sled Mini Dredge
The DAE Pumps Dredge Sled Mini Dredge is a robust dredge pump system that cleans silt and sediment from the bottom of lagoons, basins, ponds, small lakes, and other waterways. The Dredge Sled performs similarly to a pool cleaner robot that rides along the bottom cleaning up dirt and debris. This small dredge offers a couple powerful, non-clogging pump options. For heavy-duty applications the Dredge Sled is equipped with the EDDY Pump patented high solids pump that can move up to 70% solids. For light- to medium-duty application for less solids up to 30%, the DAE Pumps low solids pump can remove silt, sediments, and slurry between 125 to 150 yard per hour.
Suitable for waterways of up to 60,000 square feet surface areas the DAE Pumps Dredge Sled is ideal for smaller dredging projects that the large dredging operations cannot access. The Dredge Sled mini dredge is connected by a cable and pulley system controlled by a single operator that controls the forward and back, up and down operations. Dredge Sled is used in agriculture recycled water ponds, power plants, paper/pulp plants, mines, chemical plants, oil fields, and other industries need to keep the capacity of their tailings and cutting ponds while following the environmental impact standards. The unique design feature of this pontoon dredge does not harm poly, clay, or concrete liners. This mini dredge operates in water depths between 3 and 20 feet of water.
Facilities that often outsource the maintenance of their ponds and lagoons to dredging companies can now safely and easily perform their own dredging. The Dredge Sled can be transported by a truck or trailer and deployed without heavy equipment. DAE Pumps’ mini dredge pumps are easy to set up and run.

Small Sand Dredge
The DAE Pumps pontoon dredge pump performs ideally as a small sand dredge. With the heavy-duty submersible slurry pump that is capable of suctioning sand, silt, sediment, and slurry, the pontoon dredge pump skims across the bottom, pumping material, sand, and debris. The angled bars allow the pontoon dredge pump to move freely as heights increase and decrease.
This small sand dredge is capable of reaching the center and edge of ponds, tanks, and lagoons where most other dredges can only access just one location. The versatile dredger is a must-have for anyone with small to medium size dredging projects.

These accessories, such as tanks, are designed to integrate seamlessly into the overall pumping process, ensuring efficient material handling and process optimization. Choose from multiple sizes of slurry hoses for the transferring of materials, wireless flow meters for measuring the flow rate in gallons per minute of liquid, and power units for operation. Parts are always in stock and available for immediate shipping to anywhere in the US and the world.
Maintenance and Repair
Regular maintenance is essential for ensuring the optimal performance and longevity of slurry pumps, including electric slurry pumps and submersible slurry pumps. In demanding applications such as mining, dredging, and construction, pumps are often exposed to high viscosity slurries, abrasive materials, and challenging conditions that can accelerate wear and increase the risk of clogging. To address these challenges, modern slurry pumps are constructed with wear resistant materials and specially designed impellers and wear parts, significantly reducing the frequency of repairs and minimizing downtime.
One of the standout features of today’s electric slurry pumps is their easy maintenance. Many models are engineered for quick and straightforward replacement of wear parts and seals, allowing operators to perform routine maintenance with minimal disruption to operation. This not only helps to keep operating costs and energy consumption in check, but also ensures that the pump continues to deliver efficient and reliable performance, even when handling tough materials like fly ash or sediment.
Regular inspection and verification of key pump components—such as the impeller, seals, and pressure systems—are crucial for identifying signs of wear before they develop into major issues. By adjusting the impeller and replacing worn parts as needed, operators can optimize the pump’s efficiency and extend its service life. This proactive approach to maintenance is especially important in industries where downtime can be costly and where the security and reliability of pumping systems are paramount.
In addition to in-house maintenance, many manufacturers offer specialized repair services, spare parts, and expert technical support to help operators maintain the quality and performance of their slurry pumps. When selecting a pump, it’s important to consider not only its suitability for your specific application, but also the maintenance requirements and support services available. By investing in high-quality, wear resistant pumps and adhering to a regular maintenance schedule, operators can reduce operating costs, minimize downtime, and ensure safe, efficient operation across a wide range of industries.
Ultimately, prioritizing maintenance and repair is key to maximizing the productivity and reliability of your slurry pumping systems. Regular verification and prompt response to any issues help maintain the security and efficiency of your operation, allowing you to meet the demands of even the most challenging pumping applications.
