Fittings for peristaltic pumps can be categorized as follows:
1. By connection type: can be divided into Barb fittings and Threaded fittings.
2. By shape: can be divided into straight fittings, reducing fittings, T/Y fittings, L fittings, Luer fittings, etc.
3. By type of tubing connection: can be divided into hose fittings and rigid tube fittings. These fittings are suitable for connecting a peristaltic pump to different types of tubing, with rigid tube fittings generally being smaller in size.
How to choose peristaltic pump fittings?
1. In most cases, peristaltic pumps use barb fittings to connect to external hoses. The standard configuration of peristaltic pumps is barb fittings.
2. If the peristaltic pump needs to connect to rigid tubing, such as when used in a COD online analyzer, the pump outlet connects to rigid tubing, in which case using rigid tube fittings is more appropriate.
3. If the application scenario of the peristaltic pump requires quick connection to external tubing, then threaded fittings or Luer fittings would be the optimal choice.
