Operating instructions Peristaltic Pump ISI Series
3 fUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The ISI Series is a positive displacement pump. The feed liquid is conveyed
by the rotor squeezing the hose in the direction of flow. No valves are
needed for this. This ensures gentle handling of the metered media.
Maximum pressure on suction/inlet side is 3 bar (45 psi approx.)
NB: Maximum pressure on suction/inlet side is 0.5 bar (7.25 psi approx.) for ISI 19.
The ISI Series has been designed for safe and uncomplicated operation, as
well as straightforward maintenance.
The ISI Series can be used for many different media. However, this pump
type is often the optimal solution for abrasive, shear-sensitive and viscous
media.
Typical areas of use include processes where only a low discharge pressure
is required (max. 8 bar).
