7. Layout and Function
The Verderflex Ds500 is an industrial peristaltic, self-priming
pump designed for metering, dosing and transfer (fluid/
chemical) with a focus on accuracy and minimum downtime,
at pressures of up to 7 bar(g).
7.1 Design Details
The medium to be pumped is contained within the tube
and additional pipework and is totally contained within
the cartridge. A rotor shoe passes along the length of
the enclosed tube, compressing it. This motion forces
the contents of the tube directly in front of the shoe to
move forward along the length of the tube in a ‘positive
displacement’ peristaltic movement. In the wake of the
shoe’s compressing action, the natural elasticity of the
tube material causes the tube to recover and regain its
round profile. This creates suction pressure which refills
the tube.
