Overview
High pressure hose pumps
The latest design
PT pumps combine the best available materials with smart design solutions in order to maximise running time and minimise maintenance.
The PT series pump is an extremely reliable pump with a wide performance range, up to 150 m3/h and 15 bars, that can handle most fluids in most applications.

Available hoses materials
The PT series is designed to make hose changes quick and easy with no technical knowledge required. We only work with high quality compounded rubbers, reinforced with 2 to 6 individual layers of braided polyamide and with an outer layer made to strict tolerances to ensure perfect compression. The characteristics of Tapflo hoses enable them to last approximately 30% longer than other hoses on the market. They also fit the majority of other hose pumps.
For the hose inner layers, 6 materials are available to suit the diversity of the pumped fluids.

Special Versions
PTX 150
High pressure , high capacity
This pump has all the benefits of other peristaltic pumps, with the two key additional benefits of a much slower speed for a given flowrate; and rotating rollers for soft hose compression. These two features greatly increase hose life & reduce power consumption.
Example of applications
- Effluent Processing
- Mining Waste / Cake Transfer
- Mud slurry Transfer
- Sea Tanker Offloading
- Sand Slurry Transfer
- Fish boat doffloading
Features & Benefits
- No mechanical seal or stuffing box
- Reversible flow
- Damage-free continuous dry running
- Without lubricant
- Suitable for aggressive or viscous fluids
- Hoses available: NR and full EPDM

PTS series
Bare shaft execution
For customers who require a long shaft technology, Tapflo has also developed the PTS series.
These pumps are equipped with a removable bearing case for easy bearing maintenance and can be converted into a close coupling PT type pump at any time.

PT CIP
The revolutionary high pressure CLEAN IN PLACE
10 inline connections: Tapflo as the leader of innovative peristaltic hose pump has developed a solution for easier and better clean in place hose pumps - A unique wheel to meet the requirements of its industrial customers from food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
The new PT CIP pump has a patent pending designed pump-wheel that will allow the pressing shoes to retract (not to compress the pump) for an efficient clean in place process.
Operating data
Capacity: | from 0,5 up to 10 m3/h |
Discharge pressure: | up to 15 bar |
PT pumps are available in "CIP wheel” (Clean In Place) option. It allows users, by simply reversing the direction of rotation of the pump (½ turn), to be able to retract the shoes automatically, in order to make the cleaning and sterilization operations, without any action on the pump. The client saves time and will keep the highest level of functionality in the process.
Features & Benefits
- Seal-less design
- Can run dry without damage
- Does not damage or shear the pumped fluid while maintaining a high level of hygiene
- A maximum amount of function and production time
- Min. use of moving parts and requires a min. amount of maintenance
- Only the inner part of the hose is in contact with the pumped fluid
Available hoses materials
Tapflo can offer food grade hoses in EPDM FDA, NBR FDA and NR FDA and meet the certifications EC 1935/2004 and FDA CFR21§177.2600.
The internal of the hose is white (NR FDA and EPDM FDA) or black (NBR FDA), according to the pumped fluid.
