DC 12V Peristaltic Dosing Pump AquaTech Aquarium Pump 19-100ml/min

Description

Product Overview

The DC 12V Peristaltic Dosing Pump by AquaTech is engineered for high‑precision fluid delivery in demanding environments. Featuring a medical‑grade silicone tubing loop, the pump provides a smooth, non‑pulsating flow that can be accurately adjusted between 19 and 100 ml per minute. The compact housing is constructed from corrosion‑resistant ABS plastic, ensuring longevity even when handling aggressive chemicals or saltwater solutions. Powered by a low‑voltage 12 V DC motor, the unit operates quietly, producing less than 30 dB of sound, which makes it suitable for noise‑sensitive laboratory benches and home aquariums. Integrated flow‑rate calibration markings on the pump body allow users to set the desired dosing rate without the need for external meters. The pump includes a built‑in safety shut‑off that activates if the tubing becomes kinked or if the motor detects an overload, protecting both the device and the fluid being pumped.

Usage

This dosing pump excels in a variety of applications. In scientific laboratories, researchers rely on its precise dosing capability for titration experiments, reagent addition, and sample preparation where milliliter‑level accuracy is critical. Aquarium hobbyists appreciate the silent operation and reliable performance for automated nutrient dosing, pH adjustment, and water change systems, ensuring a stable environment for fish and corals. The pump is also well‑suited for industrial chemical handling, such as adding catalysts or inhibitors in small‑batch production lines, where consistent flow rates reduce waste and improve product quality. Its low power consumption and universal 12 V DC input allow it to be powered from standard adapters, battery packs, or solar panels, providing flexibility for field deployments and remote monitoring stations. The pump’s easy‑to‑install design, with quick‑release clamps and universal tubing adapters, means it can be integrated into existing fluid circuits with minimal downtime.

FAQ

What types of fluids can the pump handle?

The pump is compatible with water‑based solutions, mild acids, bases, and most laboratory reagents. Its silicone tubing is resistant to many chemicals, but extremely aggressive solvents should be tested for compatibility before use.

How do I calibrate the flow rate?

Calibration is straightforward: fill a graduated cylinder with the fluid to be pumped, run the pump for a set time, and compare the measured volume to the expected volume. Adjust the flow‑rate knob until the desired rate is achieved, then lock the setting.

Can the pump be integrated with an external controller?

Yes, the pump’s 12 V DC input can be connected to programmable power supplies or microcontroller‑based relay boards, allowing automated dosing schedules and remote control via IoT platforms.

Is the pump suitable for continuous operation?

Designed for long‑term use, the pump can operate continuously for up to 8,000 hours when kept within its specified temperature range (0‑40 °C) and supplied with proper ventilation.

What maintenance is required?

Periodically inspect the tubing for wear and replace it if cracks appear. Clean the pump housing with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly to prevent residue buildup. Lubricate the motor bearings annually with a few drops of silicone‑based oil.
