What are the effects of chemical compatibility on peristaltic pump

2022-02-17

Now we should use a Peristaltic Pump must understand the chemical compatibility of the pump what impact it has, then the following by peristaltic pump manufacturers for you to introduce it in detail.
The pipe must be chemically compatible with the fluid to be pumped to have good pumping performance and safety performance. With the increasing number of tubes on the market ---- some peristaltic pump models have up to 15 types of tubes available ---- so users can always find a suitable tube that is chemically compatible with a particular fluid.
Many pump line suppliers provide chemical compatibility tables. However, engineers should note that chemical compatibility tables developed specifically for pump pipes and not for ordinary pipes should be used. Because ordinary pipes only have general contact with chemical substances, while the peristaltic pump pipes are in contact with chemical fluids under pressure conditions, the chemical compatibility level of ordinary pipes and the chemical compatibility level of the peristaltic pump pipes cannot be equal. Therefore, should only refer to the pump pipe, rather than the general pipeline and related substances of the chemical compatibility level, otherwise, it will make the pump pipe fail or broken crack leakage, resulting in damage or dangerous accidents of the pump.
When referring to the chemical compatibility table, the user should check the compatibility of each component of the solution, not only the main component, with the pipe to be used. Some acids or solvents in contact with the pump line for hours or days, even traces, will cause sufficient damage to the pump line. The end-user shall verify each chemical in the solution to ensure that it is compatible with the selected pump line.

Also, keep in mind that the chemical resistance of the Peristaltic Pump Tube decreases as the temperature increases. Some chemicals do not affect the pump line at room temperature, but when the temperature rises to a certain level, they will cause damage to the pump line. Specific environmental conditions, especially temperature, must be specified in the chemical compatibility table before they can be used to determine chemical compatibility.
