Great video and explanation! Helped me realize why the rollers in my pump weren't turning. The tube on the inside must have been old or have been pinched by the rollers in the same place for a long time so they stayed deformed and took too much force to turn. Also resulting in less friction of the motor shaft so it would only slip. Replacing the tubing fixed it!
Peristaltic pumps are cute in their simplicity and function...and really only possible with super-flexi silicon tubing which doesn't mind (and returns completely from) repeatedly having the walls crushed to more than being in contact (a completely enclosed cell of payload is then essentially moved along the tube by the rollers...the action is not unlike milking a bovine teet...only in a circle...and you don't have to worry about being stepped on!)...only trouble I see with this one is it is driven by a DC motor which will haul-ass (and relatively uncontrollably) at high speed as soon as power is applied...medial peristaltic pumps typically use a stepper motor because combined with the high accuracy/repeatability of the volume that is trapped and moved between the two rollers in contact with tubing, their highly accurate speed/position (including at dead-slow) control allows a ultra-accurate dosing. You would not get anywhere near that accurate a dosing control with just a DC motor which free-runs at quite a high speed...sure you could time power to it, but power applied for even just a fraction of a second would result in a comparatively huge dosage compared to an accurately controlled stepper. ...not that I like steppers, their complicated control makes them less attractive for the experimenter/hobbyist, but I'd prefer to see this pump outfitted with a gearmotor or at the very least, or a PMW speed-control, so that dose would be a lot less and more precisely controlled. Please perform power-up and volume/on-time tests, without and with a speed controller added. Thanks for another great video BC!
Hello. I bought a pump exactly like this from ebay. I build some bio/chem lab equipment as a hobby and was interested in peristaltic pumps as they allow for the sterile transfer of fluids because the fluid never touches the pump components. Mine came pre-loaded with the tube segment like yours. It seemed to function when I first used it but when I tried to change the tube by removing the face plate and adding a longer segment of tubing I could not get the rollers to spin again. I did use some special ordered smaller tubing, it still might have been about 1mm or so larger than the segment that was in there when it arrived so that could have contributed. When I re-assembled the motor I am having issues getting it to spin even on the tubing that was originally included. I'd say that if you're working with an application that you can just use connectors to connect tubing to the piece that's already in there that this pump is a good cheap option (ex. aquarium, laundry, alcohol, as you mentioned). If you are looking for an application where you need to frequently lay a new segment of tube across the rollers that this is not going to be a good fit. Commercial peristaltic pumps that handle sterile fluid have a easy on-off clamping mechanics for changing tubing. There are also a lot of really great posts out there right now on 3D printed peristaltic pumps, I think this may be what I try next. Thanks for the video it helped me understand that it was the pressure of the tube forcing the spinners against the motor shaft, I was initially confused how something that had no threading made them spin.
+Thom Fraleigh The rollers inside have to be placed into a little track or spindle holes. If you assemble the unit with the rollers not in their correct position the motor will not be able to drive them. The last bit to be inserted into the roller mechanism is the shaft of the motor itself as it presses against the rollers to drive them.
Really handy to hack with a stepper motor and driver board + Ardino or similar for really accurate and repeatable liquid measuring. I once used an instrument with a few of these pumps in to suck up and dispense reagents and samples. It cost £££££££!
We can use stepping motor controlled by PC, it will be extremly precision pump. But remember that after some time we must replace tubing, otherwise it will break and leak! Professional pumps will say you when you should replace tubing.
We had those on the wife's dialysis machine, the older ones. The blood would be drawn through the plastic lines by the rollers. Bit like massaging and squeezing through with the fingers.
It may have already been mentioned, but peristaltic pumps can be found in inkjet printers as part of the head cleaning system. They usually don't have a dedicated motor, though; they're driven by the sheet feed roller shaft iirc. You'd need to be a bit creative to hack one into a project, it's probably not worth the effort.
+ProdigalPorcupine I concur about "not worth the effort", I've torn apart a printer that had one of those, and it was ABSOLUTELY caked in ink residues. I basically had to chisel the hardened ink out of it. Even tho the one i took apart had seen especially heavy use (classroom printer), I'd think it's a pain to deal with the ink if the printer has seen even a single cartridge thru it. You'd at least need to know what solvent will both dissolve the ink and NOT dissolve the plastic. 3-d printing can probably take care of making an adapter to drive the thing from a stepper motor, as well as adapters for input and output of the fluids. This is just a first-pass at the idea from general principles, but the concepts should be sound.
Isopropyl alcohol works wonders on those things. In some cases, Acetone can be used to flush the tube. Wash entire thing in scalding hot water in order to get rid of residues and undissolved ink cruds.
I wonder how precise these pumps still are with that gearing principle. As it's not driven directly, the gear ratio depends on the size of the rubber wheels, and I imagine that can variate a lot between cold (hard) wheels and warm (soft) wheels.
I had one of these reducing the fluid in my knee after an operation. They stitched the pipe in, so could't pull it out after. US medical system. You dont get what you pay for.
i don't think it would be thin enough pipe, but my mum's old oxygen machine used something called oxygen bubble tubing, and to make sure it fit any fitting, every 1metre there was a "bubble" or flared bit of tube, so it could be cut at any point in the flared bits to fit any sized fitting, I though it was a fault in manufacture when I 1st saw a flare in it, but when told about what is was really for, I thought, how clever!, I have a nearly new 30m box of it that I'd be prepared to send to you if it's any use for just cost of postage, it says internal diameter 3mm but that might be the flared bits? its made by universal (un8800)
I wonder what kind of flow rate the 1/8th tube gives? Scaled down electric version of the Dave Brown Six Shooter peristaltic pump, i wonder how long this would take to pump 32oz of methanol?
I'm doing project that have to pump fluid in and out so I wonder if I can use only one pump, pumping in the fluid first then pumping out the fluid? If yes, how can I do that?
I'm fairly new to electrical wiring/soldering, I have a stupid question... What is the safest way to wire up one of these pumps for a project long term. Assuming it will run unattended on a schedule. Would you just buy a 12v power supply and cut the wires and solder then heatshrink? or is there a safer way?
I wouldn't expect this pump to put in continuous long term use. But for short bursts of operation it's fine. I'd suggest using a small connector to connect the pump to the power supply as that allows easier maintenance later.
is there any possibilities to change the DC Motor used on the peristaltic pump? Bc i want the pump to work slower (to produce very small flow rate). And im wondering can it be done by replacing the motor with the slower RPM (higher torque)
Thank you for the Video. I bought a pump, but the wheels/rollers do not turn. The space in the middle is larger than the shaft. So, there is no friction between the shaft and the rollers. The tube that was installed is not clear and and kind of compressed . Based on your video, I removed the tube and swished it back, but it did not help. I then replaced the tube with the smallest clear tube I could find, but that did not help. You mentioned you ordered a tube in the video. So, I was wondering if you were able to get the pump to work/ get the rollers to spin? If so, what is the size tube that worked for you?
Thank you for reply. Based on your video, was able to realized that, but I want I need to know is what size tubing did you use to get it to work? The other issue for it not working is that there is some flex in the sprocket holding the wheels. I was able see what the Tubing the company in china should have provided, which is 2MM ID and 4mm OD. However, because it did not work, I thought I would ask you want size tubing you did use that worked for you. I believe that having the correct tubing size would force the roller sprocket together, but with the wrong size tubing it will never work. The rollers clearly need to be very tight on the shaft, but cannot be too tight. So, the perfect size would be required to work correctly. It may be better for me to just buy another one, but it seems like it would make more sense to buy the correct tubing size, as I only need 3 inches of tubing.
I'm not sure I'd trust it for such a mission critical application as that. Especially given the deliberate low output designed more for dosing chemicals than bulk fluid flow. The best type of pump for that application is probably the re-purposed aquarium style pumps designed to pump the coolant at a high enough speed with minimum noise.
Hey, great video. Did you try using other tubes? I was thinking maybe 4x5mm or even 4x6mm. I just want to get the max ml/min and Im trying to get different tubes to test.
superpomme I only tried it with the standard aquarium tubing. The only way I could get it to work with that was by keeping the tubing supplied in the unit and pressing the aquarium tubing over it on either side of the pump. Not ideal.
+Jeremy Ardley It's a smaller size than the common aquarium tubing. It may vary between models, but the Chinese sellers on ebay do stock a range of silicone tube sizes.
+bigclivedotcom i belive this is my problem, my tubes are getting air in ... am driving crazy tring to fix this problem , am using normal aquarium tube, and i belive that is the problem :(
+Miguel Pires Plastic tube is not going to work. The basic working principle of the pump uses the fact that a silicone tube springs back to it's previous form after squeezing. Plastic tube tends to flat after some time.
+bigclivedotcom I haven't found any suitable connectors but I have found that you can slide a bigger tube over the supplied pump tube ends and get a good seal. I've also found that some people sell 'silicone' tube that's actually PVC - and that's not just ebay.
+Jeremy Ardley Caveat Emptor, as always. I'd bet that sometimes the seller doesn't even know the difference. aka: "I'm no expert, I just sell the stuff".
It could be powered from a battery pack or a DC mains adaptor. The motor voltage is generally about 12V DC, but it will run at reduced speed with a lower voltage.
bigclivedotcom How low the voltage can be for it to run? I'm between this 12v pump and the 6v pump. I need two for aquarium Co2 and nutrition liquid dosing (about 5-10ml/day). They will be running from two separate battery packs through 12v programmable timers (I couldn't find 6v timers) to a voltage regulator (for speed control). I'm I able to get as minimum as 5 ml/min from these pumps knowing that the min interval time of these DC timers I found on ebay is only 1 min (not seconds)? Many thanks in advance.
I know this is an old video but we use this kind of pumps for our color feeders at work. (Work in injection molding, we use parisatic pumps like that to "Measure" the amount of coloring that gets pump in with the pellets of material. www.ptonline.com/knowledgecenter/blending/Liquid-Color-Dosers

Thanks for another great video BC!
I was looking for exactly this! A take apart of these pumps! Just so happens to be one of my favorite youtubers too, awesome. Cheers Clive!
That is the same type of pump (but much smaller) that they used in the water pics back in the 70"s when I took one apart. You remember those things
Very cool! I have the sudden urge to make an automatic detergent dosing system for my washing machine now....

+Edward Spencer Also blood and plasma donations.
the same principle, though..
A smaller version is also used in some ink jet printers.

Hey, great video. Did you try using other tubes? I was thinking maybe 4x5mm or even 4x6mm. I just want to get the max ml/min and Im trying to get different tubes to test.
The pump only works properly with the correct size of tube, so you can only change the flow rate by varying the speed or duty of the motor.
