How to select the right peristaltic pump?

As we all know, choosing the right Peristaltic Pump is very important. Peristaltic pump products can be applied to all walks of life, and some industries must be used peristaltic pump, to ensure the cleanliness of fluid transmission and flow accuracy. So, when we need to use the peristaltic pump when how to choose the peristaltic pump model?

1 Determine requirements

First, the requirements must be confirmed through the flow/accuracy/number of channels/transmission medium/working pressure/suction or lift/working environment/communication/control mode.

2 select pump head

Flow rate - depends on pump head fitting hose specification

Number of channels - depends on pump head structure

Several rollers - determines the output medium pulsation size, such as the requirement of small output pulsation, should choose the number of rollers more pump head.

Material - determines the type of transmission medium, such as medium containing organic solvents, corrosive substances, should be selected suitable for the material of the pump head.

3 choose hose

inner diameter -- determine the flow rate of the transmission medium, proportional to the flow rate. Wall thickness - determines the output pressure of the medium. The greater the wall thickness, the greater the output pressure. Material - determine the type of conveying medium, and hose service life, such as the medium contains organic solvents, corrosive substances, should choose suitable material hose. Note: If the hose is used for a long time, it may break due to wear and tear, resulting in fluid overflow, which may cause harm to the human body or equipment. Therefore, the hose should be checked frequently and replaced in time.

4 Select driver

Speed - determines the flow rate of the transmission medium, proportional to the flow rate.

Accuracy - depends on the accuracy of the speed control

Material - Determine the working environment of the product. If the working environment contains corrosive substances, select a driver suitable for the material.

Protection level - determines the working environment of the product. If the working environment requires water and dustproof, the driver suitable for IP level should be selected.
