Peristaltic Pumps
Peristaltic pumps are a reliable choice for spill response and demanding transfer applications where oily water, viscous liquids or abrasive media need to be moved without causing unnecessary emulsification. Their gentle pumping action also makes them well suited for use alongside oil water separators and skimmers.
The M300 Series combines the advantages of standard peristaltic pump technology with a compact, mobile design. Depending on the selected drive configuration, the range offers capacities of up to 20 m³/h and can handle entrained solids up to 12 mm.

Product Details
Product Information
Darcy’s peristaltic pumps are designed for challenging pumping operations involving abrasive, viscous and shear-sensitive liquids. They can also handle liquid and gas mixtures, fibrous material and entrained solids, while the low-shear pumping action helps avoid emulsifying oily water.
The M300 Series is designed for safe, quick and mobile operation and works particularly well with Darcy’s range of skimmers and oil water separators. The pump is self-priming, capable of dry running and designed for straightforward cleaning and servicing.

Usage Guidance
Select the drive type and hose material to suit the liquid being transferred and the operating environment. The pump should be operated within the specified pressure and solids limits for the chosen model.
For applications involving oily water, the minimum-shear pumping action makes the system particularly suitable where avoiding emulsification is important.
Optional Extras
Available options include:
- Suction and discharge hoses
- 180 litre transport drum
- Hose cleaning device and balls
- Suction baskets
- Suction nozzles
- Special suction pipes
- Residue suction nozzles
- Vacuum hose
