Functional hoses
Select the right hose from our extensive range of functional hoses or request a customised design. We have the right hose for almost every application.
ATEX hoses for potentially explosive atmospheres
ATEX installations place high demands on both equipment and documentation, and even small mistakes in the selection of hose type, materials, or maintenance can quickly lead to safety risks or costly downtime. A systematic approach to zone classification, material resistance, and ongoing inspections is therefore essential to ensure stable operation and full compliance in potentially explosive environments.
Safe and efficient handling of hoses within a hazardous area
Wherever materials are transported, electrostatic charges arise due to contact, friction, and flow velocities. These charges are primarily caused by the exchange of electrons and can lead to the formation of extremely high electrostatic potentials. The resulting spark discharges pose a major accident hazard.
Thanks to our many years of experience with customers who work with ATEX systems, we often encounter the same challenges, particularly in the chemical industry:
- Incorrect selection of hoses that are not suitable for the zone or temperature
- Static electricity, which poses a fire hazard
- Material destruction due to aggressive media
- Incomplete documentation, leading to challenges during audits
- Operational downtime when hoses are worn or not suitable for the zone
