Selecting the right peristaltic pump hose and lubricant plays an important role in the safe, stable, and efficient operation of peristaltic hose pumps. The hose is one of the most critical components of a peristaltic pump, while the proper lubricant helps protect the hose and internal pump components against heat and wear.
Choosing an unsuitable hose or lubricant can lead to increased operating temperature, premature wear, reduced hose service life, hose failure, leakage, and, under certain conditions, risks to equipment and operators.
At Pars Hesgar Paj, technical consultation goes beyond simply selecting a hose. Actual process conditions, fluid characteristics, operating pressure and temperature, viscosity, pump type, hose material, and operating conditions are evaluated to select a peristaltic pump hose and lubricant suitable for the application.
Evaluation of Pump Operating Conditions
The following technical parameters are considered when selecting the appropriate hose and lubricant:
- Fluid type: acidic, alkaline, abrasive, corrosive, or containing solid particles
- Operating pressure and fluid temperature
- Ambient temperature
- Viscosity and physical properties of the fluid
- Pump operating mode: continuous or intermittent
- Hose material: NBR, NR, EPDM, Hypalon, and other suitable compounds
- Pump type and model
- Pressure class and suction and discharge conditions
- Pump speed and operating conditions
Evaluating these parameters helps ensure that the selected hose is suitable in terms of chemical compatibility, pressure, temperature, and mechanical operating conditions.
Selecting the Right Lubricant for Peristaltic Pumps
Lubricant plays an important role in the proper operation of peristaltic hose pumps. Using an unsuitable lubricant may increase friction and operating temperature, reduce hose service life, and, under certain conditions, cause chemical incompatibility with the hose material or process fluid.
Therefore, lubricant selection should take into account the hose material, fluid type, operating temperature, and pump operating conditions.
Using approved lubricants that are compatible with the hose specifications is an important factor in extending hose service life and maintaining stable pump performance.
