What is a Peristaltic Pump and How Does it Work?

A peristaltic pump transfers chemicals sealed inside a tube to prevent cross-contamination. This pump is the best choice for medical, agricultural, and water treatment purposes that require precise dosages of liquid. Here's what you need to know about how a peristaltic pump works and where you should use one.

Excellent job. Thank you.

[@saraboo10001]

Excellent video on basic terms of understanding.

Thank you...I totally understood What is a Peristaltic Pump and How Does it Work?

[@habibmohammed4034]

Thank you. Can you explain the drawbacks of this pumps?

[@parisp647]

thanks for the explanation! Can it also work to move thin powder-like particles?

[@cinematoart1621]

Can these pumps operate in the vacuum environment?

[@strongmind6584]

can this be used for gease trap suction in a room?

[@kenlee5711]

Definitely! I’m looking for an alternative for about $100 that I could market to distributors for servicing their customers

[@ignacioe4761]

Could I use it in Resin or polyurethane?

[@shridharpowar8384]

could it be used for lubrication purposes for small engines

[@nancyhopetikolu7591]

Is it the one for implants

[@norcoatomik1]

How long do they last then

[@ganeshkethe4559]

how to change the flow rate

[@ahmedmahrous9651]

I need the hose only

So I can fertilizer dose with this in a mixing tank thats awesome . , how do you adjust them? I see a pump that say 5-100ml/minute so it must be adjustable ?? I can hook a perstaltic pump up to my orbit sprinkler timer that I'm using to run orbit electronic valves in my irrigation system , I can have my regular 120v timer set off 120v 500gph res pump , to deliver water thru a by pass system run on a orbit valve as well ,set to the orbit timer , to direct it into a mixing tank with an agitator , then after several minutes of mixing have the pump turn on to my mixing tank to deliver to the plants I could even use another perstaltic pump to adjust my ph as well , the by pass is so I can send regular water to my plant as well and all the tanks would have flood protection from timed shut off valves,check valves , and float valves have to do the trial and take notes, no room for trial and error , just trial and take notes , then I can time everything perfectly . :) I wonder if they have electronic shut off valves that will shut a pump off ..like cut the power , other option is to go for what I know exists , like a psi shut off switch, so many options when yea learn a few things

Hello John, I am a mechanical engineer and I want to ask you how much head can a peristaltic pump provide, and at what range of horse power can it provide. Also I want to ask how many stages can be a peristaltic pump. Reply as soon as possible Best Regards Youssef S.Sebaaly

It varies depending on the condition of your tube and rollers. It's better to check at different RPMs against a measuring beaker for the flow rpm correlation.

If you didnt know, now you know.

Meh - not enough detail on the content that can flow. Meh!
