Boyser AMP22 Peristaltic pump

• Dosing and transfer of viscous fluids in chemical processing.
• Handling abrasive slurries in mining and mineral processing.
• Accurate metering of ingredients in food and beverage production.
• Transfer of shear-sensitive liquids in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
• Pumping corrosive chemicals in water treatment plants.

Typical flow rate

For this class of peristaltic pump, flow rates commonly range from a few litres per hour up to approximately 1.2 m³/h, depending on the specific hose diameter and drive speed.

Maximum temperature

Units of this type typically handle fluid temperatures up to 80°C, which is dependent on the hose material.

Inlet/outlet connections

Commonly found with 25mm connections, suitable for various industrial piping standards.

Maximum viscosity

Peristaltic pumps are well-suited for high-viscosity fluids; units like this typically manage viscosities up to 20,000 cP (centipoise) or cSt (centistokes).

Power supply

Industrial peristaltic pumps commonly operate on a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz in the UK.

Footprint

The footprint for a pump of this capacity is generally compact, suitable for integration into existing lines or skid-mounted systems.

• What are the main advantages of a peristaltic pump?

  Peristaltic pumps offer excellent dosing accuracy, handle abrasive and viscous fluids well, and prevent product contamination as the fluid only contacts the inside of the hose.

• Is this pump suitable for food-grade applications?

• What maintenance does a peristaltic pump require?

• Can this pump handle solids?

• How do I control the flow rate?

Peristaltic pumps are valued in laboratory and pharmaceutical settings for their gentle, non-contact fluid handling, making them suitable for delicate samples and sterile applications. When buying used units, buyers typically prioritise checking tubing condition, motor functionality, and calibration history. Industry sentiment favours these pumps for their reliability, low maintenance requirements, and consistent flow rates. Common strengths include versatility across various fluid viscosities and compatibility with corrosive or shear-sensitive media. Prospective buyers should verify spare parts availability for specific models.
