18.11.2013 Light-weight, heavy-duty hose clamps

Norres Schlauchtechnik, Gelsenkirchen, Germany, has introduced two patented clamp systems which have been specifically developed for heavy and super-heavy, externally corrugated spiral hoses. CONNECT 231 is ideally suited for use in the plastics industry, whilst CONNECT 232 is intended for food-grade applications.

The CONNECT 231 safety clamp system has a special, threaded sealing insert that is adapted to the outer hose contour. The system is consequently explosion proof and the clamp shells are suitable for reuse. The shells are made of aluminium and therefore extremely light, which means they are quick and easy to fit. The system, which has good chemical stability, is vibration-proof, odourless and tasteless, and resistant to microbial attack and hydrolysis. It can be used in conjunction with the AIRDUC® 355 and 356 profile hoses. In this combination, CONNECT 231 is ideally suited for pellet suction and transport on pellet conveying systems in the plastics industry as well as for loading and unloading silos and other similar applications with high throughputs of powder or pellets. The polyurethane employed for the sealing insert is additionally food-grade and complies with the regulations of the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 and 178.2010) plus the equivalent European Directives (2002/72/EC and 2007/19/EC), including amending Directives 2008/39/EC and 975/2009.
The CONNECT 232 Safety Clamp System was specially developed by Norres for use in the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Comprising a stainless steel pressing sleeve and a sealing insert made of special premium polyurethane, it is leak-proof and easy to clean with no clearance spaces. www.norres.com
