Applications. Peristaltic pumps are typically used to pump clean/sterile or highly reactive fluids without exposing those fluids to contamination from exposed pump components.

What is the advantage of a peristaltic pump?

Peristaltic pumps provide excellent problem solving pumping solutions especially when the product being pumped is particularly abrasive, corrosive, or viscous. Their lack of valves, seals, and glands makes them inexpensive to maintain as the only maintenance cost is the hose or tube.

How efficient are peristaltic pumps?

Peristaltic pumps are suitable for dispensing, metering and general transfer applications. Typically, peristaltic tubing pumps offer flow rates as low as 0.0007 mL/min to 45 litres/min and are able to generate pressures up to 8.6 bar (125 psi).
