To determine if a peristaltic pump can transport a liquid medium, you can consider four aspects: viscosity, temperature, pressure, corrosiveness, and chemical state: 1) Liquid Viscosity: Viscosity affects the ease of transport by a peristaltic pump. We generally use absolute viscosity to indicate the viscosity of a liquid medium. Common liquid media viscosities are as […]

There are two main ways to install an OEM peristaltic pump: 1. Installing through the mounting holes on the peristaltic pump. In this case, a hole of the same size as the motor needs to be pre-drilled at the installation location, along with matching screw holes around the motor. This method is also known as […]

What are some commonly used peristaltic pump hoses?

主图

Because peristaltic pumps have varying requirements for hose hardness, chemical corrosion resistance, and resilience, the types of hoses available are relatively limited. Based on differences in transparency, corrosion resistance, and hardness, they can be categorized as follows: 1. Silicone tubing: Currently the lowest hardness hose used in peristaltic pumps, it also boasts excellent resilience and […]

How to control a peristaltic pump?

Generally, peristaltic pumps are controlled by their rotation speed and running time. However, there are many ways to control these speeds and times. Here are some of the more commonly used methods: 1. Start and Stop Control: This involves controlling the power supply to start and stop. It can also be seen as keeping the […]
