Is ESSEN 20Â® cooling water hose safe for short-term splashes of molten metal near metallurgical furnaces?

Yes. ESSEN 20Â® cooling water hose is designed specifically for cooling water work near metallurgical furnaces and is safe for short-term splashes of molten metal. Its outer EPDM rubber layer is covered with a glass-fiber braid that resists thermal radiation up to +530Â°C, and the construction is explicitly described as resistant to short-term exposure to splashes of molten hot metal. The hose is non-conductive (electrical resistance â¥10^8 Î©/m), has a white insulating EPDM inner layer, synthetic cord reinforcement, working pressure 20 bar, and an operating temperature range â40Â°C to +120Â°C (external exposure up to +530Â°C).

Can ESSEN 20Â® cooling water hose be used for continuous exposure near high-temperature furnace walls?

No - ESSEN 20Â® cooling water hose is designed for use close to high-temperature sources and its glass-fiber outer covering resists thermal radiation up to +530Â°C, but its rated continuous operating temperature is â40Â°C to +120Â°C (external up to +530Â°C). This means it tolerates high external radiant heat and short-term splashes of molten metal, yet it is not specified for continuous exposure of the hose material itself to furnace wall temperatures above +120Â°C. For continuous wall-contact or sustained ambient temperatures exceeding +120Â°C, a hose specifically rated for continuous high-temperature exposure should be used.

Does ESSEN 20Â® cooling water hose resist thermal radiation from nearby furnace operations?

Yes. ESSEN 20Â® cooling water hose is specifically designed to resist thermal radiation from nearby furnace operations. Its outer layer is covered with glass fiber that withstands temperatures up to +530Â°C caused by thermal radiation, making it suitable for use close to metallurgical furnaces, foundries, and smelters. The hose is recommended for water installations near furnaces, resists short-term splashes of molten metal, and remains non-conductive. Operating temperature for the hose is -40Â°C to +120Â°C for normal use, with external surfaces tolerant to thermal radiation up to +530Â°C.
