The basic principle of the peristaltic pump traces
back to human “peristalsis” a term referring to the
alternating contraction and relaxation of muscles
around a tube to force the contents through it.
An elastomeric tube is squeezed along a length by
rollers that push the fluid contained within. The
tube’s restitution after squeezing produces a
vacuum that draws fluid continuously into the
tube. This creates a gentle pumping action that
doesn’t cause any damage to the product.
Contaminations are avoided because the fluid is
contained within the tube (one contact part with
product). The pump employs a rotor with rollers
mounted on it that continually compress and
occlude some portion of the tube. This action
moves the fluid through the tube with a constant
rate of displacement for each revolution of the
rotor, enabling a precise measurement of the volume
of fluid pumped through the tube.
