Is it possible to have different reduction ratios to achieve various flow ranges?

Yes, upon request. It is also possible to install additional pre-torque to further increase the reduction ratio. Moreover, VX versions can be equipped with hydraulic variators instead of mechanical ones, allowing operation from flow rates below 1 l/h.

What should be done if the solid particle size exceeds the pump capability?

We can only move up to the next pump size.

Which is the maximum solids concentration?

The maximum concentration of solids that a peristaltic pump can handle depends on several factors (type of solids, particle size, viscosity of the carrier fluid, pump speed, and the type and material of the hose).

As a general guideline, however, we can state that our largest pump models are capable of handling up to 80% of soft solid content in water solution.

How do suction lift height and fluid viscosity affect the performance?

The suction lift is the factor that most affects the pump’s performance loss; therefore, it is recommended to install the pump as close as possible to the fluid intake point. To compensate for flow rate loss, the operating speed can be increased, but only within certain limits that must be evaluated on a case-by- case basis.

Viscosity also has a significant impact on a pump’s performance, although it is impossible to determine exactly how. We provide a manageable operating range with our pumps up to 150,000 cP.

To determine which model to use, we always ask customers to send us a product sample so we can simulate the required operating conditions.

Is it possible to change the orientation of the process connections?

On all models in the AS and ASP ranges, the pump head can be rotated in 90° increments to position the connections facing up, down, left, or right.

Naturally, depending on the chosen orientation of the head, the motor must be wired with the correct electrical phase to ensure proper rotation direction.

Are all the pumps reversible?

Yes, the entire range is fully reversible.

Do the pumps run dry, or do they require an oil bath?

All pumps in the range are designed to run dry, and they do not require an oil bath for operation. When installing a new hose, it must be properly lubricated with MOLYKOTE 7CPD grease or a similar lubricant.

How does the leak detector work?

The system consists of a PP container with a capacitive sensor inside. It is mounted on the pump body, with a hole at the lowest point.

In the event of a hose breaks, the fluid is directed into the container, triggering the sensor. The sensor then provides a clean output contact, which can be connected to the pump’s power supply, a visual or audible alarm, or other monitoring systems.
