- Typical capacity
- For this class of peristaltic pump, flow rates commonly range from a few litres per minute up to approximately 20-30 litres per minute, depending on tube diameter and drive speed.
- Power supply
- Units of this type typically operate on a 3-phase industrial power supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with a variable speed drive.
- Tube diameter
- The stated 2.5-inch (approximately 63mm) diameter refers to the internal diameter of the peristaltic tube, which dictates flow rate and particle handling capability.
- Materials of construction
- The stainless steel frame is standard for food processing applications, with the pump head and tube materials varying based on product compatibility and hygiene requirements.
- Footprint
- Peristaltic pumps with a stainless frame are typically compact, designed for integration into existing lines or as standalone mobile units.
- Control
- Variable speed control is a common feature, allowing for precise adjustment of flow rate and dosing volume.
