What are the common problems of peristaltic pump head

Peristaltic pump is widely used in our daily life. Do you know the common problems of peristaltic pump head? Now please follow the peristaltic pump manufacturers Xiaobian to understand it.

What is the upper limit of pump head pressure?

It depends on the pump pipe used. Normally, the upper pressure limit of pump pipe is 40 psi (2.7 bar); The nominal pressure is 25 psi (1.7 bar). The upper pressure limit of our polytetrafluoroethylene pump head is 100 psi.

What is the upper limit of inlet pressure?

It depends on the inner diameter, wall thickness and material of the pump pipe. Normally, the upper pressure limit at the inlet is 40 psi (2.7 bar). The upper pressure limit of our polytetrafluoroethylene pump head is 100 psi.

What is the maximum suction height?

The maximum suction height is 29 foot water column.

Do you need a check valve?

unwanted. The company's unique pump body structure eliminates this need.

Can the peristaltic pump run idle?

sure. It can pump gas, liquid and multiphase mixed fluid. But the company's PTFE pump head will overheat when idling, so it can't pump gas.

Is peristaltic pump self-priming?

yes. It creates a vacuum of more than 26 inches of mercury (660 mm Hg).

Is peristaltic pump a positive displacement pump?

yes. The flow of water is proportional to the speed of the rotor (within the maximum capacity of the driver).

Is peristaltic pump non siphonic?

yes. At any time, there is always a roller pressing over the pump pipe to lock it, so there will be no backflow.

Is it possible to pump slurry or abrasive solutions?

sure. But the upper limit of viscosity and particle size is related to the inner diameter of pump pipe.

Why are so many pump head types and pipe sizes available?

This enables the fluid to be pumped at the optimum speed in as many applications as possible.

Is it possible to pump fluid in the opposite direction?

sure. When the pump head rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, all specifications are the same.
