Direct answer

Yes. LibertyCES has documented Peristaltic Pump in Municipal Water applications, including Blue-White FLEXFLO A-series. The right model depends on the fluid, concentration, temperature, flow and duty cycle, so send James your process data for a free spec review before final selection.

Install / Failure Note

Peristaltic pumps pass slugs of off-gassing chemical like sodium hypochlorite safely without vapor lock — Blue-White's own engineering note flags this as the real reason to choose peristaltic over diaphragm metering when the dosed chemical outgasses in the line.

Sodium hypochlorite off-gasses, and a diaphragm metering pump's check valves can vapor-lock on that gas — Blue-White's own note on why peristaltic handles this cleanly is the real reason the Municipal M-series, not the CD diaphragm line, is usually the safer default for hypo dosing on a drinking-water contract.
