The STRATEC Peristaltic Pump is designed for handling challenging fluids, such as acids, bases, and fluids with high viscosity, particles, or tendencies to form clumps. Liquid waste disposal in IVD systems is the pump’s primary application. Its multi-channel capability and the option to equip the pump with up to three cassettes provide maximum flexibility. The pump functionality resides in the peristaltic tubing therefore no valves are needed to generate flow. The design ensures a strict separation of mechanics and fluids, as the Tube Kits are the only components in contact with the transferred media, which helps to avoid cross-contamination.
Maintenance is straightforward, as the Tube Kits can be replaced quickly and easily. The cassette cover features a bayonet lock, allowing fast access for the Tube Kit replacement. Pressure shoes contain integrated springs ensuring constant pressure independent from the casette configuration and the number of channels over lifetime. Depending on the application, the pump can be equipped with different cassettes and channel configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the main advantages of the STRATEC Peristaltic Pump in OEM systems?
The STRATEC Peristaltic Pump is a displacement pump designed for handling problematic liquids, it offers the highest level of volume and application flexibility and can be configured depending on the application. The pump also helps to reduce service and maintenance costs for the end user, since the Tube Kits are the only components in contact with the transferred media, and the replacement can be done easily.
- What makes the STRATEC Peristaltic Pump suitable for challenging fluids?
There are no moving parts or sealing surfaces exposed to the pumped fluids, so the pump mechanics are not adversely affected by the fluid properties. Special materials for the wetted components enable the conveyance of liquids including acids, bases, and distilled water.
- How flexible is the STRATEC Peristaltic Pump's configuration?
The pump can be equipped with different cassettes and channel configurations. Up to three channels can be combined into one channel, or one channel can be distributed to up to three channels.
- How is constant pressure maintained?
Pressure shoes contain springs that ensure constant and stable pressure performance independent of the cassette configuration and the number of channels over lifetime.
- Why is the STRATEC Peristaltic Pump easy to maintain?
The Tube Kits can be replaced quickly and easily. In addition, the cassette cover features a bayonet lock, allowing fast access for the Tube Kit exchange. A cycle counter supports preventive maintenance by indicating when the kit should be replaced.
