Bioflex Ultra solves hose collapsing issues for chemical company
A company specializing in the process of high value chemicals and manufacturing in small to medium scale flow reactors, was previously using a smooth bore hose with a silicone cover and nonlined Tri-clover fittings.
Durable hose
Bioflex Ultra, reliable under pressure
Durability and cleanability also work for this chemical company
A company specialising in the process of high value chemicals and manufacturing in small to medium scale flow reactors, was previously using a smooth bore hose with a silicone cover and non-lined Tri-clover fittings.
The hoses were used in a continuous slurry agitator under high pressure, transferring highly viscous media to assess the consistency and breakdown of the solvent bonds in cycles of 12 to 72 hours.
Due to the hoses having to withstand such pressure, they often collapsed under vacuum, increasing downtime of production. Supplying Bioflex Ultra with hot formed PTFE-lined Tri-clover fittings made for better durability and the ability to withstand high pressure.
