DC6V 310 Peristaltic Liquid Pump Mini Peristaltic Pump

DC6V 310 Peristaltic Liquid Pump Mini Peristaltic Pump offers precise and non-contaminating fluid transfer in a compact form factor. Driven by a reliable 310 series DC motor, this mini pump uses the peristaltic principle: rollers compress a flexible tube against a housing, moving the liquid inside without the fluid ever touching the pump mechanism itself. This key feature makes the pump an essential component for any application requiring high-purity dosing, such as chemical sampling, medical equipment, or hydroponic systems. Operating on a low 6V DC supply, this quiet and efficient pump is easy to integrate into battery-powered or space-constrained projects, giving you accurate control over small volumes of liquid.

Key Features:

• Non-Contaminating Design: Only the inside of the tube contacts the liquid, preserving the purity of the transferred fluid.
• Self-Priming Capability: The pump can lift fluids from a lower reservoir without prior filling, simplifying setup.
• Reversible Flow: Simply reverse the polarity of the DC voltage to change the direction of liquid flow.
• Compact and Quiet: The mini size and low-voltage operation make it highly suitable for portable devices and noise-sensitive environments.
• Accurate Dosing: Provides consistent flow rates, ideal for precise liquid dispensing and metering tasks.

Technical Specifications:

• Rated Voltage: 6 V DC
• Operating Voltage Range: 3 V to 8 V DC
• Rated Flow Rate: Varies by tubing size (Typically 50 mL/min to 100 mL/min)
• Motor Type: 310 Series Brushed DC Motor
• Current (No Load): ≈ 80 mA to 150 mA
• Current (Working): ≈ 200 mA to 400 mA

Mechanical Specifications:

• Pumping Principle: Peristaltic (Roller Type)
• Pump Head Material: Engineering Plastic (ABS/PC)
• Tubing Material: Silicone or BPT (Chemically resistant)
• Suction Head (Max): ≈ 1 meter
• Delivery Head (Max): ≈ 2 meters

Dimensions:

• Applicable Tubing (Inner Diameter): Typically 2.5 mm to 3.0 mm
• Weight: ≈ 60 g to 80 g

Pinout and Wiring:

• Red Wire (+): Connect to the positive terminal of the 6V power supply to initiate flow in the default direction.
• Black Wire (-): Connect to the negative terminal (Ground) of the power supply.
• Direction Control: Reverse the polarity of the Red and Black wires to reverse the flow direction of the liquid. For automated control, you can use a simple H-bridge circuit or a relay module.

Commonly Used in:

• Aquarium Keepers: Implementing automated water dosing and additive dispensing.
• DIY Bio-Hacking and Lab Work: Metering reagents and culture media precisely.
• Robotics Developers: Integrating liquid handling into compact prototypes and test setups.

Applications:

• Hydroponics/Aquaponics: Dispensing nutrients and pH balancing agents on a schedule.
• Medical Equipment: Low-flow sampling, micro-dosing, and gentle drug delivery simulation.
• Scientific Instrumentation: Moving small, sensitive volumes of fluid in chromatography and analysis.

Equivalent Models:

• 12V 370 Peristaltic Pump: A higher voltage and potentially higher flow rate/pressure alternative.
• Diaphragm Pump: Offers higher pressure but may cause contamination as the fluid touches the pump mechanism.
• Submersible Mini Pump: Used for higher volume transfer but lacks the precision and non-contamination feature of a peristaltic pump.

Package Includes:
