The Verderflex reinforced hose

 

• 12 standard hose sizes from 5mm (³/₁₆”) to 125mm (5”)
• All hoses are designed to maximize hose life by increasing the the hoses’ fatigue strength
• Hoses are available in Natural Rubber (NR), Nitrile Buna Rubber (NBR), Food Grade NBR (NBRF), EPDM and Hypalon^® (CSM)
• Hoses have colour coded identification tapes bonded into the outer surface during manufacture to clearly identify material type.

The successful use of hose pumps in a number of situations led Verder to develop a hose with an enhanced construction. Hoses in peristaltic pumps generally fail due to fatigue between the rubber layers and the reinforcement layer. Verder hoses are specifically designed and manufactured to maximise fatigue resistance, resulting in an extremely long hose service life.

A pump’s flow rate is determined by the hose’s internal diameter and the pump’s rotor speed. In turn the hose’s wall thickness compared to its diameter and its number of reinforcement layers create the hose’s restitution after compression which creates a vacuum in the hose and hence the pump’s priming mechanism. By combining these facets with an optimum textile reinforcement construction, the Verderflex hose generates a discharge pressure up to 16 Bar/230 PSI for all pump sizes whilst maximizing the hose’s longevity.
