JIHPump Peristaltic Pumps: A Great Helper for Robot Vacuums

With the accelerating pace of modern life, fewer people have the time or energy for household chores. Driven by technological progress and the demand for convenient living, robot vacuums have become an indispensable part of daily life.

The evolution of robot vacuums has passed through several stages, from basic dry mopping to models with micro-pump water control, and now to systems using peristaltic pump technology for more precise fluid delivery. A peristaltic pump works by rotating rollers to compress flexible tubing, drawing liquid in through the inlet and pushing it out the outlet. This design ensures cleaning fluid never touches the pump housing, resulting in higher sanitation, better sealing, and greater durability, all of which significantly improve the mopping performance of robot vacuums.

The application of peristaltic pumps in robot vacuums mainly focuses on two core functions: the automatic water supply/drainage system and mop cleaning. First, in the automatic water system, peristaltic pumps draw and discharge water by compressing tubing, enabling automatic wastewater removal. Second, for mop cleaning, the base unit uses a peristaltic pump to connect to the clean water tank. As the mechanism moves back and forth on a sliding rail, it completes washing, scrubbing, and drainage automatically.

JIHPUMP models WX1/ZL and 293KC/ZL, equipped with DC motors, allow accurate control of water output. Compatible with various inner-diameter tubing, they support a wide flow range from as low as 10.5 mL/min up to 270 mL/min to meet different requirements. They can also be fitted with Pharmed BPT tubing, which withstands acidic and alkaline cleaning solutions of moderate concentrations, extending the overall service life of the equipment.

In particular, the WX1/ZL model is roughly the size of a one-yuan coin, with a compact footprint and minimal space occupation, greatly saving internal room in the robot.

Thanks to their compact size, high flow rate, low power consumption, and stable delivery performance, JIHPump peristaltic pumps are widely used in robot vacuum systems.
