The simplest way to select a hose.

Application guide

Plastic Resin Conveying

Good

flexFLO™ lite U 100

Medium-duty polyurethane dry material handling hose

flexFLO™ lite U 100 uses a polyurethane-lined PVC tube for dry-material abrasion resistance and a clear wall for flow inspection. It does not supply a hose-grounding wire.

Better

flexVAC™ 180 STAR

Heavy-duty abrasion resistant suction and discharge hose

flexVAC™ 180 STAR combines abrasion-resistant SBR construction, static-dissipating carbon black and a copper grounding wire for demanding dry-material handling.

Best

flexVAC™ lite U Boom ST

Medium-duty wet & dry material remote hose with grounding wire

flexVAC™ lite U Boom ST provides a polyurethane liner, static-dissipating construction and a copper grounding wire for abrasive recovery. It is the lighter boom-hose option and is not food grade.

Notes: Use this single progression for nonfood plastic resin conveying. Food-contact service requires a qualified food-contact product.

Connect and test the hose grounding wire as part of the complete bonded and grounded system wherever required. Static-dissipating material alone does not provide a grounding-wire connection. Confirm the published pressure, vacuum, temperature and bend-radius limits for the selected diameter and complete assembly.
