Surface Roughness*
Standard:
- Ra <0,5µm / 20µin
- Ra max. < 0,8 µm / 30µin
Improved Surface roughness possible on request, up to UHP semi F19 level:
- Ra <0,2µm / 8µin
- Ra max.< 0,5 µm / 20µin
Cleanliness
- Standard deliveries: High Purity
- Vacuum, Ultra high purity: possible upon request and according to customer specifications
Product Tests
- Helium leak test (1×10⁻7 std cm3/s)
- Optional: He leaktest (1×10⁻9 std cm3/s)
Optional product tests
Depending on the hose configuration, the following validations are available:
- Pressure decay test (high purity gas possible)
- Pressure resistance test
- Particle tests
- Residual gas analysis (RGA) for outside cleanliness
- Gas chromatography analysis
- Moisture testing (H₂O)
- Inorganic contamination analysis (ICP-MS)
Packaging
- Each hose is double bagged individually and boxed. Longer hoses are coiled, bagged and boxed.
Compliance
- EN ISO 9001
- EN ISO 10380 / ASME 31.3
*RA max. is an average value
Standard deliveries with Tube Adapters, different connections upon request
- Fully metallic, hydroformed corrugated flexible hose for high corrosion resistance, high temperature, vacuum and pressure applications
- Smooth, electropolished internal surface to ensure ultra high purity. Electropolishing offers less particle stickiness (low Ra value)
- Perfect replacement for electroplished tubing in vibration and misalignment environmetnts
- Excellent choice for both transportation of corrosive gases and fluids, and for connecting vacuum spaces when flexibility is required
- Available standard in AISI 316L and in Alloy 22 as an option for even better corrosion resistancy performance.
