## About <!--about-->
Includes any products that can be described/observed as a peristaltic pump. Peristaltic pumps contain fluid trapped in a flexible hose. The hose is pinched between the rollers and the inside wall of the housing. As the rollers revolve around a central axis, they squeeze the fluid through the tubes towards the discharge outlet, similar to what happens when you squeeze a tube of toothpaste at one end, and it squirts out the opening.

### Excludes

Excludes products such as Dynamic Pumps, Reciprocating Pumps, Pneumatic Pumps and Pumps not specifically designed for use with Fluids.
Specifically excludes other Rotary Pumps.
