Peristaltic hose pump used for mining industry
Peristaltic hose pumps have been used in industrial fields for many years, and the earliest original design of hose pumps can even be traced back more than half a century ago. The peristaltic hose pump was first used by firefighters in transport lime slurry for mining industry.
There is no strict distinction between hose pumps and peristaltic pumps. Generally speaking, peristaltic pumps refer to small flow (in milliliters/min), low outlet pressure (not more than 3kg/cm2), and are mostly used in sanitary fields and laboratory measurement. The hose pump refers to a large flow (up to 80 cubic meters/hour), high output pressure (up to 16kg/cm2), and is mostly used for large flow transportation and measurement in industrial situations.
The designer and user of hose pumps first value its ability to transport strong abrasive media. It has no valve and no seal. The only part in contact with the medium is the inner cavity of the rubber hose. The rotor of the compressed hose is completely independent of the medium.
In addition, peristaltic hose pumps have many unique features: no other pump has better self-priming ability than hose pumps, and can almost produce a perfect vacuum to suck liquid; transport gas-containing liquids and foam liquids without air resistance; Transporting high-viscosity and shear-sensitive media is also a strong point; it is a natural metering pump with a fixed displacement per revolution regardless of the outlet pressure. Various advantages make hose pumps more and more widely used in gold smelting, non-ferrous smelting, chemical industry, mining, food processing, brewing, ceramics, water treatment and other industries.
A high-quality peristaltic hose pump has a life span of 7-10 years. The biggest challenge lies in the hose of the hose pump, which is the core component of the hose pump, and its life is directly related to the cost of the pump. It can be said that the hose pump is designed to maximize hose life.
Leadcrete heavy-duty industries hose pump is a kind of peristaltic pump. An elastomeric tube is squeezed along a length by rollers. The tube's restitution after squeezing produces a vacuum that draws fluid continuously into the tube. That doesn't cause any damage to the product. And contaminations are avoided.
