Typical Specifications

Typical flow rate range

For this class of equipment, flow rates commonly range from a few millilitres per minute up to several litres per minute, depending on tubing size and drive speed.

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on standard single-phase industrial power, often 230V AC, 50/60Hz, for the UK market.

Control interface

Commonly features a digital display and keypad for precise flow rate adjustment and calibration.

Tubing material compatibility

Designed to accommodate various tubing materials (e.g., silicone, Marprene, Bioprene) to suit different fluid chemistries and application requirements.

IP rating

Many industrial peristaltic pumps offer an IP rating suitable for washdown environments, typically IP31 or higher for the drive unit.

Footprint

Typically a compact benchtop or panel-mount unit, designed for integration into existing systems or laboratory setups.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What are the primary benefits of using a peristaltic pump?

  Peristaltic pumps offer contamination-free pumping as the fluid only contacts the tubing, making them ideal for sterile or sensitive fluids. They also provide high accuracy and are easy to maintain by simply replacing the tube.

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

• Can this pump handle viscous fluids?

• What maintenance is typically required for a peristaltic pump?

• Is this pump suitable for continuous operation?
