Flow Rate Stability of Medical Peristaltic Pump Tubing Materials

Do you want to see a comparison of the flow rate stability of different medical peristaltic pump tubing materials?

Positive displacement pumps, more specifically peristaltic pumps, are a critical component to many medical procedures. Two such procedures are the intravenous infusion of fluids and enteral feeding. In both of these procedures, the stability of flow is critical for the patient’s care. Specialty tubing formulations across a number of material solutions can be used for such critical, life saving devices. In order to understand how each material family and specialty product performs, an investigation was conducted into the two aforementioned medical applications where flow rate is critical.

Download the complete white paper to see the results of the investigation on the flow rate stability of seven different medical peristaltic pump tubing materials.
