Product Description
Low-pressure Norprene peristaltic tube assembly designed specifically for Chem-Tech XP and XPV series peristaltic metering pumps. Supplied as a complete, ready-to-install tube assembly with pre-attached 1/4" compression fittings, this replacement tube is optimized for reliable operation and extended service life in low-pressure chemical feed applications.
This product is intended as a direct replacement wear component, helping maintain proper pump performance, dosing accuracy, and system reliability.
Why Choose This Low-Pressure Chem-Tech Replacement Tube
Optimized for low-pressure applications – engineered to operate within lower PSI ranges, reducing mechanical stress and extending tubing service life
Longer service life under reduced load – low-pressure operation minimizes fatigue, helping reduce replacement frequency
Ready to install – ships as a complete tube assembly with factory-installed compression nut and ferrule
Chemical-resistant Norprene tubing – resists swelling, cracking, and degradation from commonly used treatment chemicals
Leak-free connections – 1/4" compression fittings ensure secure suction and discharge connections to 1/4" OD chemical tubing
Maintains dosing accuracy – proper tubing fit and material help preserve consistent metering performance
Compatibility & Tube Selection
This low-pressure peristaltic tube assembly is designed exclusively for Chem-Tech XP and XPV series pumps. Tube size and maximum pressure rating vary by pump model.
Low-pressure tube assemblies are intended for use with compatible low-pressure pump configurations, such as Chem-Tech XP low-pressure peristaltic metering pumps, where system pressure remains within standard operating limits.
Selecting the correct tube size is critical. Always verify your pump model and required tube size before ordering to ensure proper fit, pressure capability, and service life.

FAQs
1. How do I choose the correct tube size?
Tube size depends on your specific Chem-Tech XP or XPV pump model. Always match the tube size and pressure rating to your pump model using the compatibility table before ordering.
2. What is the difference between low-pressure and high-pressure tubes?
Low-pressure tubes are designed for applications with lower system pressure and typically offer longer service life under reduced mechanical stress. High-pressure tubes are required when operating at higher PSI.
3. Are the compression fittings included?
Yes. The tube assembly ships fully assembled with a pre-attached 1/4" compression nut and ferrule, ready for installation.
4. How often should the peristaltic tube be replaced?
Peristaltic tubing is a wear component and should be inspected regularly. Replacement frequency depends on pressure, chemical type, and operating hours. Tubing should be replaced at the first signs of cracking, softening, or loss of accuracy.
5. Does tubing condition affect dosing accuracy?
Yes. The Chem-Tech XP and XPV manuals note that pump output varies with tubing condition and operating pressure. For accurate dosing, pumps should be recalibrated after each tubing replacement.
6. Can operating above the pressure rating damage the tubing?
Yes. Exceeding the rated pressure can significantly reduce tubing life and may cause premature failure or leaks. Always operate within the pressure limits specified for the selected tube size.
7. Is this tube assembly installed as a complete unit?
Yes. Chem-Tech XP and XPV pumps are designed to use complete tube assemblies, not loose tubing. The entire tube assembly is removed and replaced during maintenance, which helps ensure proper fit and safe operation.
