Peristaltic Chemical Metering Pumps for Injection & Transfer

Traditional pump technologies often rely on check valves, mechanical seals, or stuffing boxes. When exposed to harsh chemicals, these components wear quickly, leading to leaks, blockages, vapor lock issues, and high maintenance costs.

Peristaltic chemical metering pumps eliminate these risks. The reinforced hose liner is the only component in contact with the fluid, ensuring excellent chemical compatibility and isolating the pump mechanics from corrosion and abrasion. Because there are no internal valves or seals, performance remains stable even when handling aggressive or difficult chemicals.

Peristaltic chemical metering pumps move fluid through a flexible hose using rotating rollers or shoes. As the hose is compressed, the chemical is pushed forward in a controlled flow. Once the compression passes, the hose returns to its original shape, creating a strong suction effect.

This design provides excellent suction lift capability and prevents vapor lock, even when handling volatile or gas‑forming chemicals. Because the hose is fully compressed, backflow is eliminated and no check valves are required. The seal‑less design also allows the pump to run dry without damage, improving safety and reliability in chemical environments.

Peristaltic chemical metering pumps are widely used across the chemical industry for both injection and transfer duties. Common applications include acids and acid neutralizers, alcohols, aluminum sulphate, and catalytic agents, where accurate dosing and corrosion resistance are critical.

They are also extensively used in water treatment for chemical injection and sludge conditioning. Abrasive and solid‑laden products such as lime slurry, titanium dioxide, and PVDF latex are handled reliably because wear is confined to the hose liner, with no impact on metering performance.

Other typical applications include polymers, resins, plating solutions, hydrocarbons, solvents, and soaps. In each case, the pump delivers stable flow across a wide range of operating conditions.

Many chemical processes involve fluids that contain suspended solids or abrasive particles. These materials can quickly damage centrifugal or diaphragm pumps and cause frequent maintenance issues.

Peristaltic chemical metering pumps are particularly well suited for these conditions. The hose absorbs abrasion while the rest of the pump remains protected. Even with changing fluid consistency, high solids content, or shear‑sensitive products, the pump continues to deliver accurate and repeatable flow.

Maintenance costs are a major concern in chemical plant operations. Leaks, clogging, seal failures, and valve wear can cause downtime and safety risks.

Albin Pump peristaltic chemical metering pumps reduce maintenance by design. With no mechanical seals, check valves, or complex internal parts, service is simple and predictable. Maintenance typically involves replacing the hose, which can be done quickly and safely.

This results in reduced downtime, improved reliability, and a lower total cost of ownership. In many applications, pump payback is achieved in months rather than years.

With their ability to handle aggressive chemicals, abrasive slurries, and shear‑sensitive fluids, Albin Pump solutions are a proven choice for peristaltic metering pumps.

They deliver accurate dosing, reliable operation, excellent chemical compatibility, and long service life while minimizing vapor lock, maintenance, and operational risk in demanding chemical and water treatment environments.
