Pump Tubing
Peristaltic pump tubing is a wear consumable that directly controls the precision and stability of sample and reagent delivery in ICP-OES, ICP-MS, flow injection analysis, and continuous flow systems. As tubing walls fatigue from repeated compression cycles, inner diameter consistency degrades and flow rate reproducibility declines — a change in nebulizer uptake rate of even a fraction of a milliliter per minute shifts sensitivity, alters internal standard response, and introduces drift across a long analytical sequence. Tubing material must also be chemically compatible with the acids, solvents, and matrix modifiers passing through it continuously during instrument operation, and color-coded size identification is essential for maintaining correct flow rate assignments across multi-channel pump configurations.
Ibis Scientific supplies peristaltic pump tubing from Elemental Scientific™ and compatible manufacturers in Tygon™, PVC, and solvent-resistant formulations across a full range of color-coded internal diameters for ICP-OES, ICP-MS, FIA, and continuous flow analytical system applications.
