Typical Specifications

Typical flow rate range

Units in this class commonly offer flow rates from microlitres per minute up to several litres per minute, depending on the pump head and tubing size.

Power supply

Typically operates on standard single-phase mains power, commonly 230V, 50Hz in the UK.

Tubing compatibility

Designed to work with various tubing materials such as silicone, Marprene, or Tygon, selected based on chemical compatibility and application.

Control interface

Often features a digital display and keypad for setting parameters, with some units offering remote control capabilities.

Footprint

Benchtop design is common for this series, offering a compact footprint suitable for laboratory environments.

Pump head type

Typically employs a multi-roller pump head to ensure smooth, pulsation-reduced flow.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What are the main advantages of a peristaltic pump?

  Peristaltic pumps offer contamination-free pumping as the fluid only contacts the tubing, making them ideal for sterile or sensitive applications. They also provide precise flow control and can handle viscous or shear-sensitive fluids.

• How do I choose the correct tubing for my application?

• Is this unit suitable for continuous operation?

• What kind of maintenance does a peristaltic pump require?

• Can this pump handle abrasive slurries?
