- Neutral in taste and odour
- Temperature Range: -35°C to +100°C
Product Description
This red hygienic TPE-S hose, identifiable by a white longitudinal stripe and white liner, is fortified with a steel spiral and polyester thread for enhanced durability. Its inner and outer surfaces are impeccably smooth, facilitating optimal flow properties and facilitating straightforward cleaning and sterilisation processes. Notably, this hose is manufactured with tighter tolerances than an equivalent vulcanised rubber hose.
The hose’s cover exhibits exceptional resistance to ozone, aging, UV rays, and weathering. Its extruded TPE-S tube boasts low porosity, minimising permeation issues. This hose maintains a highly neutral taste and odour profile, preserving the organoleptic qualities of the transported medium. It also demonstrates good chemical resistance to acids and alkaline solutions and offers reliable impermeability.
Furthermore, this versatile rubber hose can withstand an alcohol concentration of up to 50%. It is crafted without the need for vulcanisation, thereby eliminating the risk of leaching curing agent residues (such as peroxide or platinum volatile rests) into the end product. When properly grounded, it can be rendered conductive (R<10² Ohm/m).
In terms of compliance, this hose is food-grade, adhering to EU 10/2011 standards (Classes A, B, C, D1) and FDA CFR-21-177.2600 regulations. It serves as an adaptable suction and delivery hose, specifically designed for conveying food liquids. Its versatility extends to accommodating a wide range of media, including wines, fruit juices, vinegar, and spirits with an alcohol content of up to 50%. Additionally, a blue version of this hose is available for the purpose of delivering milk and dairy products.
Sizes highlighted in green on the datasheet are available from stock and have shorter lead times.
