Peristaltic pumps
Peristaltic pumps are devices that can pump liquid without actually touching it. These pumps are based on state-of-the-art engineering solutions that ensure accurate and trouble-free operation of the pump.
Operating principle of the peristaltic pump
Such pumps are used for pumping a large amount of liquids and are a type of volumetric pumps. The liquid in the pump moves through a flexible tube. It is based on the principle of effective pumping - peristalsis. The process is based on the fact that the tube is compressed by special rollers. Accordingly, the liquid in the tube will move with each such compression and return of the tube to its original shape. In fact, the entire process of movement ensures that the liquid is sucked in by the tube and then squeezed out in the desired direction.
The tube is flexible enough to allow the liquid to be squeezed out even in cases where the liquid has increased viscosity and density indicators. Peristaltic pumps can provide metered pumping. Moreover, the dosage accuracy will be as high as possible. In addition, due to the physical properties of the tube, the pumps can work with aggressive liquids. The design that holds the tube inside the pump is optimally selected to prevent chafing or chemical contamination. Therefore, such devices have an extended service life and can work smoothly for a long time.
Advantages of a peristaltic pump
Among the main advantages of a peristaltic pump are:
- Easy and convenient installation;
- Ability to configure for a ready-made system;
- Stability and uniformity of the flow of the pumped liquid;
