Varkie S220

Varkie S370

Varkie is an Amandla Pumps registered trade name with the registered trade mark for the SVA and S series of pumps. These versatile sludge/slurry pumps have a solids handling capability from 45mm on the S40 to 95mm on the S370 handling up to an SG of 1.3.

The Varkie S-Series is the series that has superseded the models of the SVA series. The pump performance of the S Series is very similar to the SVA Series, with the addition of the S370, a 37kw unit for more demanding applications. The construction of the S Series has been done to improve handling and to extend the working life of the pumps.

The redesigning of the SVA series is in line with Amandla Pumps policy of continually improving through research and development. This resulted in an aesthetically pleasing, lighter unit having greater longevity of service which was easier to handle.

When the level, of the product being pumped, drops below the top of the pump guard inlet, the pump loses its prime and stops pumping, makes a snorting sound similar to that of a wild pig, thus getting the name of Varkie which is an Afrikaans word meaning Little Pig.

Amandla Pumps - Introduction

IntroductionAmandla Pumps is a proud South African company driven by passionate people who have a love for the design and manufacture of pumps and submersible pumps.

The secret to our success is from the vision and commitment of our staff to keep up with the latest technologies, setting high standards and ensuring a good service to industry.

With over 100 cumulative years of experience in the industrial pump industry, we started Amandla Pumps in 2002. The primary goal was to design and manufacture industrial submersible pumps for use in heavy industries of all types, which would be totally sourced and manufactured in South Africa for local and global use. Emphasis of the business was also to ensure good product backup by making sure spares were readily available for the aftermarket. Amandla Pumps is:

�3rd party certified to ISO9001:2015 quality management system with the key focus on continual improvement.

�certified to manufacture flameproof units to SANS60079-1.�a level 2 BBBEE contributor with 51% black ownership.

Geographical PositionOur home base in Sebenza, Edenvale ideally positions our company to service local industries using our products. This base of operation is also well positioned in close proximity to the largest international airport in South Africa, facilitating dispatch of spare parts and complete units globally.

GrowthOver the past 16 years the Amandla Pumps team has designed and manufactured a range of quality products that match world standards which we are proud to call ours. We are now recognised by other international pump manufacturers and are continuously achieving an average annual growth in excess of 30% per annum.

Proudly South African People of Amandla Pumps from various ethnic groups, with common enduring values, work together to build a quality product, a great company, a better life for themselves and for the generations that will follow in their footsteps.

HistorySince 2002 from humble beginnings our product range and manufacturing plant has grown steadily. One of the key focuses from the start was to produce a local, South African, product with one of the best backup services in terms of new and spares supply. Today we pride ourselves in having:�a well-equipped CNC machineshop with good repeatability in part

manufacture and inhouse quality controls and standards to ensure good interchangeability of spares for the aftermarket.

�a well-established research, development and design department headed by our Technical Director and resident engineer as well as a well-equipped manufacturing facility.

�3rd Party Certification for ISO9001:2015 and certification to manufacture flameproof units.

Quality Assurance - ISO 9001:2015Amandla Pumps has a 3rd party certified ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System.

Research and DevelopmentResearch and development is driven through continual data gathering, which forms the core inspiration for research and development of existing and new models of pumps. This helps us at Amandla Pumps to dynamically meet client needs by reducing weight, improving efficiency of the pumps and creating new solutions for problem areas. Focus during design is also given to the manufacturing processes to help reduce machining time of parts and lower manufacturing costs.

Amandla Pumps manufactures parts from a combination of sand castings and investment castings.

Sand castings are used for manufacturing general components where the geometry is not critical.

Investment castings, or lost-wax castings, is used for parts with critical dimensions and smooth surface finish requirements. This helps achieve a high quality and accuracy with pump impellers which have a direct impact on the pumps performance.

The Varkie S and Jenny J series are available in standard or flameproof construction in accordance with SANS 60079-1.

Often pumps exceed our initial expectations, placing Amandla Pumps as a well-respected pump manufacturer.

At the end of the machining process, pump components and electrical motor enclosure components are examined and measured ensuring they conform to drawing and material specifications. The units are then pressure tested to ensure no leakage and to ensure good mechanical strength of the castings. All flameproof models are dimensioned and built to conform to SANS 60079-1 and the standard as defined when the unit was originally tested during flameproof approval.

On completion of the assembly process our pumps are tested to ensure that they conform to published data for the specific model as per ISO 9906:2012.

All mechanical seals are inspected with a monochromatic light, before being issued. Suspect seal faces are re-lapped to improve seal face flatness, ensuring a good seal during the pumps expected life span.

100% testing gives Amandla Pumps a very high level of confidence that the unit once installed on site will be ready to be put to work.

All units pass through final inspection before final packaging, ensuring that when the pumps are dispatched they conform to the correct standards as per customer requirements.

Amandla Pumps has a comprehensive warranty policy to give the customer peace of mind, giving at least 12 months of trouble free service in good conditions.

Amandla Pumps - Our Manufacturing Plant

ProductionThe pumps we manufacture today get their first breath of life on state of the art CAD systems, thereafter following a carefully planned and monitored manufacturing and testing process, turning a dream into reality.

Components are Manufactured on modern CNC machinery operated by trained skilled people. Units are assembled by trained and experienced people.

Complementing our stocked complete pumps is a well-stocked parts store, offering excellent aftermarket service. Interchangeability of spare parts is guaranteed by components that are manufactured to well-controlled specifications.

We manufacture two submersible pump ranges:�Varkie S Series - 6 models - horizontal submersible configuration,

for Slurry/sludge and solids handling�Jenny J Series - 9 models - dewatering submersible pumps, for

dewatering/clean/dirty water

Our ProductsAmandla Pumps has two good successful ranges of submersible pumps, entirely manufactured in South Africa, with a local content of above 70% by weight. The units are specifically designed to meet difficult pumping applications, offering solutions to challenges in the Mining, Sewage, Power Generation, and industry. Materials, like 27% High Chrome Iron and polyurethane for linings, are chosen for wear parts to give the products long service life. For acid applications we manufacture the units completely from Stainless Steel 316 or a combination thereof.

Stock holding is reviewed and updated continuously to ensure our ex-stock parts store and ex-stock fast moving pump models are adequate to meet market demands, increasing the investment in stock holding on and ongoing basis. This requires careful planning to meet the market requirements. This is over and above the investment that takes place into our Research and Development division and CNC Machines ensuring that we are always ready for the next generation of pumps.

Our slogan is “Your Pumping Challenge Our Opportunity”.
