Operating Principle
Peristaltic hose pumps operate with an elastomer hose arranged in a circular form inside the pump and a rotor system.
As the rotor rotates, pressure shoes compress the hose and push the fluid forward. As the compression point moves along the hose, a new suction volume is created, ensuring continuous flow.
With this operating principle:
- resistance to dry running
- valveless operation
- low pulsation flow
- prevention of backflow
- transfer of high-viscosity and particle-laden fluids
are achieved.

Design & Material
Peristaltic hose pumps are designed with different hose and housing options depending on the chemical structure, particle content, and viscosity of the fluid to be transferred.
Hose Options
- NR (Natural Rubber)
- NBR
- EPDM
- Hypalon
- Viton
Housing
- Cast iron
- Steel
- Compact closed housing design
Rotor & Shoes
- Alloy steel
- Wear-resistant coating
Lubrication System
- Glycerin-based special oil
- Long-life internal lubrication system
In pump selection;
- chemical structure of the fluid,
- particle content,
- required pressure,
- flow rate requirement,
- hose material compatibility,
- operating duration,
- ambient temperature
must be taken into consideration. Incorrect hose selection may cause cracking, flow rate loss, and premature wear.
