Peristaltic pumps are a type of positive displacement pump used to move various fluids through a flexible tube, making them ideal for handling abrasive, viscous, or shear-sensitive liquids. These pumps are commonly used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and chemical processing due to their gentle pumping action and ease of maintenance.
Check the pump's condition, including the state of the tubing and the rollers. Verify the pump's compatibility with the fluids you intend to use and review any available maintenance records.
Use a reliable shipping service that specializes in delicate machinery. Ensure the pump is securely packed and cushioned to prevent any damage during transit.
Regular maintenance includes inspecting and replacing the tubing as needed, checking the rollers for wear, and ensuring the pump is free of blockages. Consult the manufacturer's guidelines for specific maintenance intervals.
