Multi-Channel Peristaltic Pump Benefits
Feature |
Accu-Staltic |
Competition |
Accuracy |
Works at +/– 5% of average flow over its speed range and the life of the tube for most tubes. |
Most must be hand-calibrated and verified each channel, each time. |
Tube Swell |
Patented design keeps older, swollen tubes from pinching and rubbing, for longer tube life. |
Swollen tubes can pinch and rub inside competitor pumps, causing premature failure. |
Product Contamination |
Our double-sealed, synthetic-lubed bearings are impervious to contamination. All parts are stainless steel or coated to resist all but the strongest alkali solutions. |
Competitor pump rollers can become contaminated and seize, causing premature failure. Also painted/plated steel, and plastic, become susceptible to UV and chemical degradation. |
Serviceability |
Four bolts or less remove any component. All parts available individually "off the shelf." |
Often built to be disposable, or integrated with a drivemotor, which limits serviceability. |
Rebuildable |
Rebuild your Accu-Staltic at a fraction of a new pump's cost, often within an hour. |
Competitor pumps offer limited ability to rebuild the product. |
Turnkey Drive Options |
Wide range of options include fixed speed, a sensorless Variable-speed AC, hydraulic, or mechanical link. |
Primarily low power DC drives. |
Multiple Channel |
One drivemotor can turn up to 24 pump channels with 1/2" tubing with our pumps. |
Most pumps are single-channel with limited multiple channel capabilities and tube sizes. |
Anti-Backflow |
Positive occlusion (seal) is guaranteed with any commercially-available tubing. |
Pumps may need to be adjusted to prevent backflow, and may backflow under pressure. |
Security |
Hoses can be inspected without a total pump disassembly, making for easy routine maintenance. |
Many models must be disassembled to inspect hose; hard to know when it might fail. |
Flexibility |
Pumps can handle a range of tube sizes, with flows from a few mL per minute to 16 LPM, by reconfiguring manifolds. |
Most models are built for a single tube size, so if you need to change your flow rate you must also change your pump. |
Pressure |
Handles pressures over 70 PSI, with the proper tubes, with minimal effect on flow rate. |
Can't perform under pressure without flow rates degrading or motor stalling. |
