Is the Textile braided hydraulic hose EN 854 2TE/EN45545-2 suitable for continuous use with water at +70Â°C and pressures up to 17 bar?

Yes . Textile braided hydraulic hose EN 854 2TE/EN45545-2 is suitable for continuous use with water at +70Â°C and pressures up to 17 bar. The hoseâs operating temperature range is â40Â°C to +100Â°C, and for water and air the maximum operating temperature is explicitly +70Â°C. Working pressure depends on diameter (40â80 bar), so 17 bar is well within its capability. Note: the microâperforation requirement mentioned applies only to air above 17 bar, so it does not affect water at 17 bar.

Can Textile braided hydraulic hose EN 854 2TE/EN45545-2 be used with compressed air above 17 bar without micro-perforation of the outer layer?

Textile braided hydraulic hose EN 854 2TE/EN45545-2 cannot be used with compressed air above 17 bar without microâperforation of the outer layer. The product description explicitly states: âFor air above 17 bar, microâperforation of the outer layer is required.â Even though the hose has working pressures from 40 to 80 bar and is rated for water and air up to +70Â°C, you must microâperforate the outer layer before using it with compressed air over 17 bar to prevent issues.

Does Textile braided hydraulic hose EN 854 2TE/EN45545-2 require special fittings for use with air at 80 bar?

Textile braided hydraulic hose EN 854 2TE/EN45545-2 Format does not inherently require special fittings solely because it is used with air at 80 bar; however, several important conditions must be met: - Use fittings rated for the hose working pressure (80 bar) and compatible with textile-braided construction. Fittings must ensure secure crimping or mechanical connection suited to single textile braid reinforcement. - Ensure fittings and coupling method maintain the hoseâs flame-retardant and EN45545-2 compliance if the application requires rail fire safety. - For air service above 17 bar the hose specification mandates micro-perforation of the outer layer; confirm whether this affects sealing at the fitting interface and follow manufacturer guidance. - Verify temperature limits: for air the maximum operating temperature is +70Â°C; fittings and seals must be compatible with that temperature range and the media. - Follow manufacturerâs installation, crimping, and testing instructions, and use recommended end fittings, clamps or adapters to avoid leakage or hose damage. In practice, use fittings specifically approved or recommended by the hose manufacturer for EN 854 2TE textile-braided hoses at 80 bar and for pneumatic service to ensure safety and compliance.
