The Pump That Doesn't Quit

One roller. No seals. No babysitting. SoloTech keeps flow moving where every other pump taps out.

Direct answer: Graco SoloTech peristaltic pumps are seal-less, single-roller pumps that cover roughly 0–18 GPM across models SoloTech 6 through 32, at up to 125 psi and 176°F. The single-roller design delivers about 4× the hose life of conventional multi-roller peristaltic pumps, and because there are no mechanical seals, the pumps are self-priming, reversible, and can run dry without damage.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What flow range do Graco SoloTech peristaltic pumps cover?

LibertyCES specs the full SoloTech lineup across the SoloTech 6 through SoloTech 32 model sizes, covering roughly 0–18 GPM (0–68 LPM) at the top end — the largest SoloTech 30/32 models top out around 15.8–18 GPM at 125 psi max working pressure. There is no SoloTech model that reaches 41 GPM; for higher flow, LibertyCES specs Graco's Husky AODD line instead.

Why does SoloTech last longer than a standard peristaltic pump?

Its single-roller design applies one compression per revolution instead of multiple, delivering roughly 4× the hose life of conventional multi-roller peristaltic pumps, with seal-less construction eliminating seal-kit maintenance entirely.

Can SoloTech pumps run dry or self-prime?

Yes. SoloTech pumps are self-priming and reversible, can move abrasive or viscous fluids, clear lines, and run dry safely without damaging the pump.

What is the maximum pressure and temperature rating for SoloTech?

Up to 125 psi (0.9 MPa / 9 bar) and up to 176°F (80°C), hose-material dependent — enough headroom for thick slurries, polymers, and caustics without cavitation.
