Product Details
The Graco SoloTech ST23 pump is a heavy-duty peristaltic pump engineered for accurate transfer of abrasive, shear-sensitive, and viscous fluids. Its hose-based pumping design minimizes product contact with mechanical components, reducing contamination risks and simplifying maintenance requirements.
Configured with a stainless-steel construction and industrial-grade wetted materials, this ST23 model is suitable for demanding fluid handling applications across manufacturing, chemical processing, water treatment, mining, food processing, and other industrial environments. The peristaltic operating principle delivers smooth, low-pulsation flow while maintaining consistent performance during continuous-duty operation.
Key Benefits
- Designed for efficient transfer of abrasive and viscous materials.
- Peristaltic pumping technology reduces seal and valve wear.
- Stainless-steel construction supports demanding industrial environments.
- Gentle fluid handling helps protect shear-sensitive products.
- Simplified maintenance with hose as the primary wear component.
Typical Applications
- Chemical transfer and dosing operations.
- Industrial fluid processing systems.
- Water and wastewater treatment facilities.
- Mining slurry and abrasive material transfer.
- Food, beverage, and hygienic process applications where compatible.
Frequently Asked Questions
The SoloTech ST23 is a peristaltic hose pump that moves fluid by compressing and releasing a flexible hose, eliminating the need for internal valves or mechanical seals in the fluid path.
It is commonly used for abrasive slurries, viscous products, shear-sensitive fluids, and other challenging industrial materials compatible with the hose and wetted components.
Routine maintenance primarily involves inspection and replacement of the pump hose and lubrication according to the manufacturer's service recommendations.
Peristaltic pumps offer gentle product handling, dry-run capability, accurate metering, and reduced maintenance because the fluid only contacts the hose interior.
