Nutrient pumps
Peristaltic pumps are designed for accurate dosing of plant nutrients and diluted acids in greenhouse and controlled growing environments. They are well suited to growers who require reliable, low maintenance pumping without the risk of internal blockages or contamination.
Unlike traditional pumps that rely on valves and seals, the liquid is contained within a durable, easily replaceable tube. This design reduces wear on internal components and helps eliminate the risk of clogs or premature pump failure.
The pump is fully self priming and prevents backflow or siphoning, helping maintain accurate dosing rates and system stability. For concentrated acids, diaphragm pumps are recommended as a more suitable alternative.

FAQs
Peristaltic pumps are commonly used for dosing liquid fertilisers and diluted acids into irrigation systems. They provide controlled, accurate delivery to maintain stable EC and pH levels within the root zone.
Peristaltic pumps are ideal for nutrients and diluted acids because the liquid only contacts the internal tube, reducing corrosion and maintenance. For concentrated acids, diaphragm pumps are generally recommended due to their higher chemical resistance.
Maintenance is typically limited to periodic tube replacement, depending on usage and chemical strength. As there are no valves or seals exposed to the liquid, servicing is simpler compared to many conventional dosing pumps.
