Key product features
- silicone construction → Matches the product-contact material to the intended medium.
- Application focus: single-use biopharma, pH control, media feed, dosing, transfer and filtration → Supports targeted material selection instead of a generic hose choice.
- Peristaltic product containment → Keeps the process liquid inside the replaceable pumping element.
- Replaceable wear component → Simplifies routine maintenance and spare-parts planning.
- No mechanical seal in the product path → Reduces potential leakage points around rotating seals.
- Material-specific chemical resistance → Helps protect tube or hose life when compatibility is confirmed.
- Suitable for controlled dosing and transfer → Supports repeatable peristaltic pumping behaviour.
- Compatibility depends on pump model → Prevents incorrect use across different realAx sizes.
- Operating conditions affect service life → Encourages correct pressure, speed and temperature selection.
- AxFlow selection support → Helps confirm medium, pump and pumping-element compatibility.
realAx SILICONE Tube is a replaceable pumping element for realAx peristaltic pumps and is intended for single-use biopharma, pH control, media feed, dosing, transfer and filtration. Because the process liquid is contained within the tube, the material of the inner product-contact layer is a central selection factor for chemical compatibility, hygiene and wear resistance.
The pumping element is manufactured from silicone and is repeatedly compressed during pump operation. This allows the peristaltic pump to move the medium without mechanical seals in the product path. The material is particularly relevant for APY applications.
The published temperature range is -10 to +135 °C. The published pressure limit is 2 bar. These values describe the published material or product range and must be considered together with the selected pump model, speed and process conditions.
Service life depends strongly on pressure, speed, temperature, chemistry and solids. Available for apy; suitability depends on the medium and process conditions. AxFlow can help confirm pump-model compatibility and the most suitable hose or tube material so maintenance intervals and lifecycle cost can be managed predictably.
