Progressive Cavity and Peristaltic (Hose) Pumps
Specialized applications require a pump designed to accommodate a wide range of substances and consistencies. Progressive cavity and peristaltic pumps provide a solution by delivering the high performance you need and the ability to handle sensitive materials.
Progressive cavity and peristaltic pumps are user-specific and require special setup that typically involves using a gear reducer. Our team has the expertise to help you determine the exact pump setup your application needs. Contact us for assistance in exploring our industrial pump solutions.
Progressive Cavity Pumps
Progressive cavity pumps are positive displacement pumps used to transfer high viscosity fluids, including sludges and slurries. The screw-style rotor produces eccentric movement to move liquids progressively through a series of cavities. This pulsation-free operation makes progressive cavity pumps ideal for abrasive solids and fluids with high shear sensitivity.
Additional advantages of progressive cavity pumps include:
- Precise flow rates
- Bi-directional operation
- Self-priming
- Quiet operation
Peristaltic Hose Pumps
Peristaltic pumps, also referred to as hose pumps, are positive displacement pumps used to pump fluids. This style pump has a circular casing that contains a flexible rubber tube or hose. As the pump rotates, it creates a vacuum that pulls fluid through the tube slowly. These versatile pumps will not damage solids and work well for high-viscosity liquids and slurries. Hose pumps also meet sanitary pumping requirements for applications where high purity is essential.
Use peristaltic pumps in a variety of applications, including:
- Wineries
- Breweries
- Food & Beverage Processing
- Pet Food Production
- Paint, Lubricant, and Adhesive Production
