Is the CARACASÂ® suction and discharge hose for petrochemical products suitable for diesel and gasoline with up to 50% aromatic content (CARACAS 50 version)?

Yes. The CARACASÂ® suction and discharge hose for petrochemical products (CARACAS 50 version) is suitable for diesel and gasoline containing up to 50% aromatic hydrocarbons. The CARACAS 50 is specifically recommended for more aggressive fuels (up to 50% aromatics), offers electrical continuity via a copper wire, and is designed for transfer systems and fuel tankers with good abrasion, oil, ozone and weather resistance, a flexible corrugated construction, working pressure 6 bar, vacuum 0.6 bar, and an operating temperature range of -20Â°C to +70Â°C.

Can the CARACASÂ® suction and discharge hose for petrochemical products be used in outdoor fuel tanker operations in cold climates down to -20Â°C?

Yes. The CARACASÂ® suction and discharge hose for petrochemical products is rated for an operating temperature range from -20Â°C to +70Â°C, so it can be used in outdoor fuel tanker operations in cold climates down to -20Â°C. It is lightweight, flexible (minimum bending radius 2.5ÃID), abrasion, oil, ozone and weather resistant, and includes a copper wire for electrical continuity-features that suit moderately harsh external working conditions. Ensure the selected version (standard up to 30% aromatics or CARACAS 50 up to 50% aromatics) matches the fuel composition and always follow local safety and handling regulations.

Does the CARACASÂ® suction and discharge hose for petrochemical products provide electrical continuity via its copper wire?
