Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What points should be considered for installing a hose properly?
A.
- Changes in length.
- Proper bend radius.
- Protection from high temperature sources.
- Installing elbows and adapters to relieve strain.
- Rubbing or abrasion.
- Twisting.
- Improper hose movement.
Q. What are the inspection & maintenance requirements for a hose?
A.
- The hose should be stored in a cool and dry place.
- It should be visually inspected.
- If there is a gouge or cut in the cover exposing the reinforcement, the hose should not be used.
- It should be inspected for broken or kinking reinforcement.
- A hose with 20% reduced outside diameter at the spot where it is bent, should not be used.
Q. How to install a hose fitting into a hydraulic hose?
A.
- Select the correct size, style and length of the hose.
- Fabricate it according to the application.
- Check for minimum bend radius as installation at a lower value may significantly impact hose life.
- Install in a manner such that the relative motion of the machine components produces bending of the hose rather than its twisting.
- Protect the hose from pressure surges, flexing and contact with other mechanical components.
- Connect the ports properly while ensuring that no torque or twist is put into the hose.
- Correct external damages, if any.
- Check the complete system for proper functioning and leak-free operation.
