Technical Specifications
Construction
This reference is manufactured with three polyester fabric reinforcements and a stainless steel wire spring, everything encased inside the hose.
SIL 650/V AC: The hoses are equipped with a copper wire fitted parallel to the stainless steel wire spring to improve static electricity discharge1.
1. The hose must be properly earthed to allow the current dissipation of the static charge, earthling the hose metallic fittings or directly the copper wire of both ends of the hose.
Use Precautions
- Extreme working conditions or the use of materials with low compatibility with silicone can attack the inner surface of the hose. It is advisable to inspect the inner appearance for cracks or swelling, and replacement of the hose, if necessary.
- Hose cover: Should be inspected over the entire length for signs of hardening, abrasion, cuts, kinking or crushing.
