Series C Electrically Heated Convoluted Core Hoses

Hose Description

ElectraFlo II Series CL high temperature hose features a flexible metal Teflon Core, electrically heated hose for operation to 400°F (204°C). Models CM & CH hoses feature braided stainless steel cores electrically heated for operation to 625°F (329°C). All models feature good flexibility and can be operated in continuous movement conditions. Our state of the art proprietary hose heater element provides optimum temperature uniformity throughout the entire heated length. High temperature hose come standard with thermal insulation and are available with a tough, extruded polyurethane jacket for outdoor service or an abrasion resistant, braided polyester sleeve for indoor use and are ideally suited to Hot Melt Adhesives & Chemicals applications. All high temperature hose are supplied electrically and hydraulically complete, ready to use.

Electrical

Operating Voltage – any phase voltage to 480 VAC. Depending on length, hoses may be ordered to operate on 240 or 480 VAC, three-phase. Power Density is based on the desired operating temperature, lowest ambient temperature and size of hose. Our engineering department determines the power density required for your electrically heated hose application.

Temperature

Series C electrically heated hose must be controlled (except for the self-limiting “SL” version) to maintain the desired operating temperature. A temperature hose heater sensor is installed during construction and, unless otherwise specified, will be installed three feet from the power end of the hose.
