Imparting a little know-how on tubing material choice and replacement can lead to cost and efficiency benefits for those using cleaning equipment, argues Lily Lei, global marketing manager of Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics.
As any production manager can tell you, proper cleaning is vital to the safe and successful operational performance of any industrial or institutional facility. However, to continue operating at the highest possible levels while also maintaining the all-important bottom line, end-users of industrial cleaning equipment need to seek out solutions that are not only extremely effective but also efficient.
When dispensing concentrated, caustic and costly chemicals with peristaltic pumps used in industrial cleaning applications, it is imperative to use high-performance pump tubing solutions that minimise waste, downtime, maintenance and replacement costs – all potentially significant drains on precious financial resources. The challenge facing the end-user is how to navigate the complex sea of factors involved in weighing cost versus performance.
In addition to providing high-performance tubing solutions, OEMs can assume another important role – that of trusted guide. By providing valuable expertise on proper care and maintenance, they can help customers enhance the performance and increase the lifecycle of washing equipment.
