Edge-free transitions between the internally smooth hoses and the connection systems used guarantee flow-free conveying and prevent contamination in the production process. Here, Master-Sil Food hoses from Masterflex AG, Gelsenkirchen, ensure optimum connections.
Particularly where lines are frequently connected and disconnected again, a high degree of flexibility must be achieved, which can usually only be achieved by using hose lines and appropriate quick-connection systems.
Master-Sil Food SR hoses and the reinforced Master-SIL Food XR versions, for example, meet all requirements in terms of flexibility, smoothness and safety. Neither stainless steel nor glass connections can meet this requirement profile.
Added to this are the design-related advantages of Master-SIL Food silicone hoses, which are manufactured by a special process, have smooth walls on the inside and are odorless and tasteless. The hoses, which are smooth on the inside yet highly flexible, allow easy handling. They have good hygienic properties and steam resistance (temperature resistant from -60°C to +230°C). This makes them easy and very efficient to clean. They are food-grade and comply with FDA guidelines 21 CFR 177.2600. A multilayer polyester fabric serves as the pressure carrier and is coated with a vulcanized-on silicone compound. This means that the hoses can also be cleaned very easily from the outside. We offer ready-made hoses with all commercially available milk pipe and clamp connections as well as customized connection systems, also in "sterile design". Fixed lengths of up to 4 m are possible.
