Accessories
Verderflex Reinforced Hose
The successful use of hose pumps in a number of situations led Verder
to develop a hose with an enhanced construction. Hoses in peristaltic pumps
generally fail due to fatigue of the reinforcement layer. Verder hoses
are specifically designed and manufactured to maximise fatigue resistance,
resulting in an extremely long hose service life.
Specification:
- 12 standard hose sizes from 5mm (3/16”) to 125mm (5”)
- All hoses are designed to maximize hose life by increasing the the hoses’ fatigue strength
- Standard VF Hoses are available in Natural Rubber (NR), Nitrile Buna Rubber (NBR), Food Grade NBR (NBRF), EPDM and Hypalon® (CSM)
- Hoses have colour coded identification tapes bonded into the outer surface during manufacture to clearly identify material type
-
NR - Natural Rubber
Suitable for use with lightly corrosive chemicals, highly abrasive slurries and inorganic products. Temperature range -20°C/-5°F to +80°C/+175°F.
-
NBR - Nitrile Buna Rubber
Suitable for use with lightly corrosive chemicals, highly abrasive slurries and inorganic products. Temperature range -20°C/-5°F to +80°C/+175°F.
-
Food Grade - NBRF
The NBRF hose has an FDA CFR21 & EC No. 1935/2004 approved food grade liner for use in hygienic applications. Temperature range -20°C/-5°F to +80°C/+175°F.
-
Verderprene
For Dura pumps only. Good chemical resistance, mechanical properities Temp. range: 10°C/50°F to +85°C/185°F Meets EC regulation No.1935/2004 FDA – CFR 21 Parts 170 to 189 – Item 177.2600 Maximum Discharge Pressure - 3 Bar.
-
EPDM
This hose is suitable for corrosive chemicals and inorganic products. Solid construction, made totally from EPDM rubber. Temperature range -20°C/-5°F to +100°C/+210°F.
-
Hypalon - CSM
The CSM or Hypalon® hose is used to pump highly corrosive products. The hose has a CSM inner liner and an SBR/NR outer cover. Temperature range -20°C/-5°F to +85°C/+175°F.
Verderflex Tubing for Peristaltic Pumps
For safety reasons we do not recommend pumping liquids greater than 85°C (185°F). Verderflex produces a range of standard tubing to meet the requirements of the wide and varied applications of its tube pumps. However, not all tubes are suitable for use in a peristaltic pump. The following criteria are important when selecting a tube:
- Chemical resistance
- Food grade quality
- Tube life
- Physical compatibility
-
Verderprene - General Purpose Tubing
The standard choice for use in peristaltic tube pumps. This beige coloured tube has:
- Excellent mechanical strength
- Wide chemical resistance, excellent strength against oxidising agents (ozone, peroxides and hypochlorides)
- Temp. range: +10°C to + 85°C (50°F to 185°F)
- Food Grade Meets FDA, EC1935 USP class VI and NSF criteria
- Can be autoclaved
- Compatible with most CIP solutions and SIP
-
Silicone - High Sterility Tubing
A translucent medical/food grade tubing which is odourless, non-toxic and has FDA and USP Class VI approvals. It is
- Auto-clavable and is used in many applications
- Temp. range: - 20 to + 80°C (-4°F to 185°F)Temp. range: +10°C to + 85°C (50°F to 185°F)
- Meets FDA, EC1935 USP Class VI and NSF criteria
- Platinum cured for reduced residual levels of siloxanes and other volatiles
- Reduced spallation than Verderprene
-
Tygon - Chemical Fluids Tubing
Specifically designed to handle many fuels and industrial lubricants this tubing resists the swelling and hardening caused by the chemical attack due to hydrocarbon based fluids. These properties significantly reduce the risk of failure due to cracking and leakage.
- Temp. range: 0°C to +50°C (32°F to 122°F)
- Yellow colour for positive identification
- Suitable for many fuels, heating oils, glycol, coolants and cutting fluids
-
Viton - Agressive Chemical Tubing
Viton is strong, resilient and flexible tube which provides excellent resistance to corrosive acids, alkalis and some solvents.
- Temp. range: 0°C to + 85°C (32°F to 185°F)
- Resists ozone, sunlight and weathering
- Opaque black color helps protect light sensitive fluids
Lubricants
Peristaltic hose pumps such as the VF and Dura, require lubrication to
work effectively and to maximise the service life of the hose. Verderflex
have developed Verderlube and Verdersil high performance lubricants, which
is specifically designed to work with the Verderflex hose range. Additionally,
the textured surface of the Verderflex hose creates micropockets of lubrication
which promotes even coverage along the hose, assisting in the hose cooling
process and extending hose life.
Verderflex have two standard lubricants covering the majority of
all applications however, if you require an alternative lubricant please
contact us and we will be able to offer advice on the most suitable product.
-
Verderlube - Glycerine-based Lubricant
Verderlube is a specially formulated food-grade lubricant containing glycerine.
This lubricant promotes heat transfer from the hose to the pump casing to maximise hose life. The lubricant is blue in colour and can be used at temperatures ranging from -40°C to 100°C (-40°F to 210°F). -
Verdersil - Silicone-based Lubricant
In most cases Verderlube is a very stable compound, but where it could react adversely or dangerously when mixed with certain nitrogenous compounds (such as Nitric Acid), strong oxidising agents (Peroxides) and certain other exothermic reactants chemicals including Potassium Permanganate. Then an alternate lubricant is required.
In these cases or at elevated temperatures, Verderflex recommends use of a food grade silicone oil based product, Verdersil.
Other Accessories
-
pH Probes
pH probes are available in epoxy (plastic) or glass. The probe consists of two electrodes the reading electrode (platinum coated) and the reference electrode. There are two different types of connection available, BNC or S7 (screw). Full scale is 0-14 pH.
-
