	Peristaltic pumps are typically used to pump clean or sterile or aggressive fluids because cross contamination with exposed pump components cannot occur. Some common applications include pumping for fluids through an infusion device, aggressive chemicals, high solids slurries and other materials where isolation of the product from the environment, and the environment from the product, are critical. It is also used in heart-lung machines to circulate blood during a bypass surgery as the pump does not cause significant hemolysis.

	* No contamination. Because the only part of the pump in contact with the fluid being pumped is the interior of the tube, it is easy to sterilize and clean the inside surfaces of the pump.		* No contamination.
