OverviewHose designed for cooling systems, wastewater and sewage handling in rail vehicles and rail industry applications.
Applications- Cooling water and coolant circuits on rail vehicles
- Heating systems
- Roof drainage and condensation drainage
- Railroad cars and rolling stock
- Sanitary installations on board
Flow medium- Standard cooling water with common additives (normal concentrations)
- Condensate
- Sewage and excrements
- Treated and untreated cooling water
Inner liningNon-porous, smooth inner surface for reduced fouling and improved hygiene.
Further propertiesInner layer electrically conductive, R < 10^6 Ω/m; transition resistance through the hose wall R > 10^11 Ω; outer layer electrically insulating, R > 10^11 Ω/m; Complies with fire and smoke gas toxicity standard DIN EN 45545-2 HL3 (requirement set R22 + R23).
Temperature rangeFrom -40 °C / -40 °F up to +95 °C / +203 °F.
