What is a Peristaltic Pump, and why use one?
Peristaltic pumps (also known as hose pumps) are a type of positive displacement pump that move fluid through a flexible tube by compressing it with rotating rollers — similar to how our intestines move food!
This simple but effective design makes them ideal for:
✅ Chemical dosing
✅ Abrasive, viscous, or shear-sensitive fluids
✅ Slurries, suspended solids, and corrosive chemicals
With no valves or seals, and no contact between the pump mechanism and the fluid, they offer:
✅ Easy maintenance
✅ High chemical compatibility
✅ Accurate metering with a predictable pulsed flow
Peristaltic pumps are widely used across industries such as water treatment, mining, food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing.
If you are looking for reliability and precision in tough fluid handling tasks, then Peristaltic pumps deliver.
ASCO’s high-performance N Series and VPH Series peristaltic hose pumps, offer flow rates up to 415 m³/hr. Whether you’re transferring delicate biological fluids or dosing harsh slurries, these pumps deliver reliability, versatility, and precision.
The pumps are fully protected against highly corrosive acids and challenging chemicals. The chemical version is well-suited for applications such as dosing and transferring ferric chloride, sodium hypochlorite, hydrochloric acid, and sulphuric acid. Key components, including the pump casing, front cover, rotor, shoes, brackets, frames, and hub, are coated with Halar® or ECTFE for enhanced durability. Connections are available in Polypropylene, PTFE, or Stainless Steel.
