SANITARY HEATED HOSES
All you need to know about
Sanitary Hoses are a critical component in the pharmaceutical and food & beverages biotechnology industries.
When it comes to popping open a can of soda or swallowing an aspirin, most people usually don’t think twice about what it took to make that product.
However, food and drug safety is increasingly becoming a hot topic in the media.
In 2013, nearly 300 food products were recalled by the FDA for a variety of reasons from foreign objects, such as glass or metal fragments, to
bacteria.
Choosing a high quality sanitary hose system can make a difference, not only for the end consumer but also for the manufacturer.
Contamination in pharmaceutical manufacturing should always be prevented as its effects are deleterious and very harmful.
Threats can range from cross-contamination to bacterial contamination during production that can lead to lower, increased -- or most
concerning -- toxic levels of substances that find their way into the pharmaceuticals.
3 Types of Sanitary Hoses
UHMWPE Chemical Hoses 1
The UHMWPE chemical hose (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) is a high temperature, high pressure, discharge and suction hose.
These are designed to withstand over 95% of all the most commonly used chemicals, solvents, and acids
The UHMWPE chemical hose construction provides kink resistance, full suction capability, and flexibility.
PTFE Hose
2
PTFE Hoses are extremely flexible. They have smooth inner cores that makes them ideal for high pressure, easy drainage, and allows them to handle a variety of fluids due to their chemically resistant properties.
Best of all, they have a non-aging surface, resulting in a long-lasting chemical hose solution for your manufacturing process and control.
Chemical B Chemical Hoses3
The Chemical B Chemical Hose is a multi-purpose general hose designed for stronger, oxidizing acids, alcohols, and ketones.
The Chemical B chemical hose is also reinforced between synthetic textiles and has a heat resistant cover that also protects against chemicals and weathering.
Here are 5 factors you need to consider when choosing the right sanitary hose for
your industry needs
Process Fluids1
Are there chemical compatibility issues with the process and/or cleaning fluid?
Temperature2
What is the process and the cleaning temperature?
Sterilization3
Will the sanitary hose be steamed or autoclaved?
Flexibility4
How flexible does the sanitary hose need to be? Will the hose be static or will it be a dynamic application where the hose is constantly flexing?
Certification Criteria5
What level of certification is needed? All the sanitary hose assemblies we sell meet FDA guidelines, many are USP Class VI certified and some come with extensive amounts of validation data.
Indemax provides sanitary hose & fittings that meet, or exceed the required standard for sanitary processes.
