Product Advantages
 

Absolute Isolation and Contamination Prevention

Fluids come into contact only with the tube walls and have zero contact with the pump body, eliminating cross-contamination and ensuring high-purity transmission

Sealed with Zero Leakage

Fluids remain fully enclosed within the tube throughout the process, eliminating the risk of external leakage and enabling safe transportation of hazardous and expensive liquids.

Ultra-Low Shear Force

Laminar flow propulsion protects sensitive media (such as cells and protein solutions), maintaining activity and stability.

Easy Maintenance and Low Cost

The pump tube is the only consumable part, with quick replacement requiring no specialized tools, significantly reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

 

Product life time

 

Main affecting Factors as follow

1) Pump speed
2) Pressure during pumping
3) Silicone tubing material
4) Chemical compatibility
5) Corrosiveness of the fluid

Our testing method for the life time of peristaltic pump silicone tubing as follows:

1) Pumping medium is distilled water at room temperature and pressure
2) Peristaltic pump speed is 300 rpm
3) Continuous testing for 24 hours without interruption
4) The maximum continuous operating time of the peristaltic pump silicone tubing is approximately 500 hours, which is considered a qualified product

FAQ

 

Q: Why do pump tubes easily burst?

A: Main causes: Too-thin tube walls, excessive pressure, excessive roller compression, aged tubing material
Solutions: Use thicker-walled tubing (e.g., 1.6 mm), reduce pump pressure/speed, calibrate pump head clearance

Q: Why does flow rate decline in silicone peristaltic pump tubing?

A: Main causes: Elastic fatigue of the tube wall leading to insufficient rebound, permanent deformation of the inner diameter
Solutions: Switch to high-rebound platinum-cured tubes, replace regularly (after >2 million cycles), avoid continuous high-pressure operation for 24 hours

Q: Why do peristaltic pump tubes experience wall adhesion or swelling?

A: Main causes: Transporting lipids/organic solvents (e.g., xylene, acetone) causing silicone swelling
Solutions: Switch to fluororubber tubing, verify fluid compatibility

Q: Why does silicone tubing in peristaltic pumps become contaminated with particles?

A: Main cause: Tubing exudates, wear debris, silicone oil leakage after sterilization
Solutions: Use platinum-cured tubing, pre-flush new tubing, avoid dry running
