What to consider when selecting a Peristaltic Pump

What is a Peristaltic Pump?

Peristaltic Pumps, often referred to as Hose Pumps, are Positive Displacement Pumps that move fluid through a flexible hose. As the media is contained entirely within the hose, no other pump components come into contact with the fluid, making them ideal for a wide range of applications. Available in both low- and high-pressure models, Peristaltic Pumps also provide exceptional self-priming performance of up to 9 metres.

What are common industries and applications of Peristaltic pumps?

Peristaltic Pumps can be used for a wide range of applications, specifically those containing solids as the hose maintains shape, protecting the media within the pump.

 

  • Wastewater Treatment
  • Anaerobic Digestion
  • Mineral Processing
  • Agricultural
  • Surface Conditioning
  • Chemical Manufacturing
  • Food & Beverage
  • Pharmaceutical
  • Cosmetics
  • Heavy-Duty Industrial Applications
  • Paint & Print
  • Pulp & Paper
  • Ceramics

Are Peristaltic Pumps self-priming?

Yes, Peristaltic Pumps are highly self-priming. They can remove air from the suction line and pump chamber to create a vacuum, allowing fluid to be drawn into the system automatically.

Can Peristaltic Pumps run dry?

Yes, Peristaltic Pumps are designed to run dry safely, enabling operation in the absence of fluid without adversely affecting pump performance or integrity.

What to consider when selecting a Peristaltic Pump

When selecting the right Peristaltic Pump for your application, consider the following questions:

  • What type of media will you be pumping? Assess the chemical properties of the fluid, including whether it is chemically neutral, corrosive, abrasive, or shear-sensitive.
  • What is the viscosity of the media? Consider any viscosity limitations and the fluid’s sensitivity to shear forces.
  • Does the fluid contain solids? Ensure the pump is suitable for handling suspended solids or particulates.
  • Will the pump operate in an explosive environment, or will it transfer explosive fluids?
  • Is self-priming capability required?
  • Do you require Clean-in-Place (CIP) or Sterilise-in-Place (SIP) functionality?
  • What type of hose is best suited to your application?
  • Will the pump remain in a fixed location, or does it need to be portable? For mobile applications, Peristaltic Pumps can be mounted on trolleys of various sizes to meet your operational requirements.
  • Are any additional accessories needed? Options such as pulsation dampeners can help minimise vibration and pulsation within the piping system, while a range of hose assemblies and fittings are also available.
