Flexible Clear Peristaltic Pump Tubing Soft High Chemical Resistance
Chemical tubing
• Applications: Ink and solvent production, battery acid filling, specialty chemical production/
processing, diagnostic testing, sensitive fluid transfer.
• Characteristics: Long flex life in peristaltic pumps, superior chemical resistance, plasticizer-free ;
bore, resists absorption/adsorption of aqueous fluids, virtually unaffected by chemical sanitizers and cleaners.
• Certifications: Meets FDA criteria for food contact.
• Temperature range: -75°F to 165°F
We recommend you to use Prefluid approved tubing!
There are two types of tubing to choose from, each one consist of different material, Prefluid tubing and Prefluid long-life tubing. They own similar chemical performance. Under the same condition, Prefluid long-life tubing will bewith much longer use life. In the event you need to run your pump for a long duration, we recommend you use Prefluid long-life tubing. Prefluid tubing is the number one option, when using Prefluid requirements.
Tubing Life
The factors which will influence tubing life include pump speed, pressure, tubing material and its chemical compatibility, and fluid abrasion rate.
The chart to the right displays the maximum continuous running time of 17# and 25# tubing under thecondition of speed of300rpm, temperature of23°C (73°F). The result is the average number of 10 samples.
