Deltec Peristaltic Pump - PP1ML

Peristaltic pumps can be a simple and controllable way of metering water within the aquarium and we have developed the three models in the range based on reliability and function rather than to the lowest price.

A non variable peristaltic pump designed specifically for feeding Nitrate Fluid to a Nitrate reactor.

Delivers 60ml/hr = 1ml/min = 1 drop per 10 seconds.

Peristaltic pumps will meter a continuous flow of liquid day in day out and are not prone to variations in output and pressure like a standard impellor driven pump.

The PP1ML pump was designed specifically to be used with the Deltec NFP range of denitrification filters but can equally be used to dose small levels of trace elements and other chemicals.

As the pump delivers 1ml/min then it is easy to connect it to a digital timer, (one that times own to minute intervals), to dose a certain number of mls per day.

The three pumps in the range are all non variable. The reason for this is that variable pumps from almost any manufacturer will have a lifespan of approximately 6-12 months if used continuously, due to wearing of the carbon brushes on the DC motor which have a finite life and can not be replaced.

All D-D pumps use Santoprene tubes for their longevity compared to cheaper silicone tubes which can split during extended operation.

All pumps use 3 or 4 rollers which will ensure that the tube is always nipped in at least one point.

Other lower cost pumps with 2 bearings can easily back siphon if the pump is stopped.
