Is the LUISIANA PU ANTISTATIC regeneration hose safe for transfer of food-grade liquids and compliant with EU food regulations?

Yes. The LUISIANA PU ANTISTATIC regeneration hose is suitable for transfer of food-grade liquids and compliant with relevant EU food regulations. Its inner layer is transparent, abrasionâresistant polyurethane and the product is declared compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 and Commission Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 (tested with simulant fluids A, B and C). It also meets Regulation (EC) No 2023/2006 on Good Manufacturing Practice for materials intended to come into contact with food. The hose includes a copper spiral for antistatic discharge (when grounded or fitted), and its construction and working parameters (working pressure 3â5 bar, vacuum up to 0.7 bar, temperature range â10 Â°C to +60 Â°C) make it appropriate for hygienic transfer of liquid food substances, including abrasive regenerates where higher abrasion resistance is needed. Ensure proper grounding of the antistatic wire and follow any manufacturer cleaning and use instructions for specific food applications.

Can LUISIANA PU ANTISTATIC regeneration hose withstand abrasive plastic regrind with sharp edges without premature wear?

Yes. The LUISIANA PU ANTISTATIC regeneration hose is specifically designed for abrasive dry materials and plastic regrind with relatively sharp edges. Its inner layer of transparent, abrasionâresistant polyurethane (0.6â1.0 mm) and hard PVC spiral reinforcement provide high resistance to abrasion, puncture and cutting, while the externally corrugated, internally smooth design supports material flow. The antistatic copper spiral discharges charges when grounded, and working pressures (3â5 bar) plus vacuum rating and -10Â°C to +60Â°C temperature range suit typical processing conditions. For extreme shear or highly angular regrind, verify selected diameter/thickness and perform field testing to confirm expected wear life.

Does LUISIANA PU ANTISTATIC regeneration hose require grounding during pneumatic transfer to prevent static buildup?

Yes. The LUISIANA PU ANTISTATIC regeneration hose includes a copper wire spiral intended to discharge accumulated charge only when the hose is grounded or connected to a conductive end fitting. For pneumatic transfer of dry regenerates (plastic flakes, granules) where friction can generate static, the hose should be grounded/connected to a conductive fitting to prevent dangerous static buildup and ensure the antistatic feature works effectively. Follow grounding best practices: ensure a continuous low-resistance connection to earth, bond hose ends and fittings, and verify conductivity after installation.

Strong suction and pressure hose designed for the transfer of dry or liquid abrasive substances, granules, etc. Externally corrugated, internally smooth. The inner layer is made of transparent, abrasion-resistant polyurethane, with a thickness ranging from 0.6 mm (DN30) to 1 mm (DN100). The hose features a copper wire arranged in a spiral along its length, which discharges electric charges when grounded or connected to an end fitting. Widely used in plastic processing in applications requiring higher resistance to abrasion, puncturing, and cutting of the hose. Particularly recommended for plastic regenerates with relatively sharp edges. Standards and requirements: food industry, contact with food: compliant with European regulations 1935/2004/EC and 10/2011/EU (simulant fluids A, B, and C), 2023/2006/EC (GMP) – applihose to liquid food substances. Inner layer: transparent polyurethane. Outer layer: transparent PVC. Reinforcement: hard PVC spiral. Working pressure: from 3 bar to 5 bar, depending on the hose diameter and temperature. Vacuum: up to 0.7 bar. Operating temperature: -10°C to +60°C.
