Peristaltic pumps
How they work:
Peristaltic pumps (also known as tube pumps) work according to a biological principle, similar to the transportation of food in the oesophagus. The fluid is transported by successive deformation of a flexible tube.
Advantages:
- Ideal for aseptic, corrosive and abrasive liquids
- Easy installation and maintenance
- Cost-effective maintenance due to no need for valves, seals or bushings
- Reversible flow direction for line emptying and blockage removal
- Pulsation-free operation
- Suitable for charged liquids
- Adaptable delivery hoses for different media
- Suitable for continuous operation when correctly designed
Areas of application:
- Laboratory environments
- Conveying and dosing of aggressive media
- Transport of shear-sensitive liquids
- Volumetric pumping of a wide range of liquids
This type of pump is particularly characterized by its versatility and robustness. The simple design enables cost-effective and efficient maintenance with high operational reliability.
