Stopflex for pressure hoses
RETENTION SYSTEM
FOR PRESSURE HOSES
Safety guarantee
The energy contained within a pressure hose, in case of disconnection from the fitting, can be very dangerous to anyone or anything in its vicinity.
The Stopflex retention system was designed to arrest the trajectory of the flexible hose, thus avoiding that the energy contained inside may trigger a frightening “whip effect”.
As a matter of fact, thanks to the Stopflex system, the hose is secured to the plant by means of a cable protecting both the operators and components.
Use flexibility
Stopflex components can be applied to all kinds of flexible hoses.
A band, equipped with a rubber gasket, remains perfectly secured, simultaneously allowing the hose to swell according to the working
pressure.
The retaining components can be secured to nipples, to SAE flanges or other system components.
Tested protection
The Stopflex system, upon correct mounting, was manufactured and tested to ensure the retention of the hose up to the maximum pressure indicated in this catalogue in compliance with the following standards regulating the manufacture of hydraulic flexible hoses:
|
UNI EN 853 UNI EN 854 UNI EN 855 UNI EN 856 UNI EN 857 SAE J517 |
 |
|---|
In accordance with the new Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
N.B.
In the market, there are hydraulic flexible hoses capable of exceeding the pressures indicated in the Stopflex catalogue. In case
you encounter such hoses, please contact our technical department for further ascertainment regarding application thereof.
