Distribution Hoses

Flexible conduits for controlled water distribution in spray systems

Component Specifications

Definition
Distribution hoses are flexible, pressure-rated conduits designed to transport water from a central supply point to multiple spray nozzles or outlets within a water spray system. They ensure uniform fluid delivery, withstand operational pressures, and maintain consistent flow rates while accommodating system movement and vibration.
Working Principle
Operates by conveying pressurized water through a reinforced, flexible tube to distribute fluid evenly across spray points. The hose structure (typically inner tube, reinforcement layer, and outer cover) maintains integrity under pressure while allowing flexibility for routing and connection to nozzles.
Materials
Inner tube: EPDM or NBR rubber for water resistance; Reinforcement: High-tensile textile braid or steel wire helix; Outer cover: CR or CSM rubber for abrasion and environmental protection
Technical Parameters
  • Length Custom up to 50 m
  • Bend Radius 5x diameter
  • Inner Diameter 6-25 mm
  • Pressure Rating 10-25 bar
  • Temperature Range -20°C to 80°C
Standards
ISO 1402, DIN EN 853

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the typical lifespan of a distribution hose in continuous operation?

With proper maintenance and within specified pressure/temperature ranges, EPDM or NBR hoses typically last 3-5 years in continuous industrial use.

Can these hoses handle chemicals other than water?

Standard water spray hoses are designed for water only; for chemicals, material compatibility must be verified, and hoses with FKM or PTFE liners may be required.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
