Permanent antistatic hose solutions for the transportation and suction of bulk materials
NORRES Schlauchtechnik exhibits at the easyFairs® Schüttgut 21-22 May 2014
The easyFairs® SCHÜTTGUT will be taking place in Dortmund, Germany, on 21 and 22 May 2014. NORRES Schlauchtechnik will also be exhibiting at Stand T:03 in Hall 6 in its anniversary year. The globally operating medium-sized business shall be presenting its widely expanded range of permanently antistatic hoses at the trade fair for bulk goods technology. These hoses provide a permanently constant conductivity without any migrating antistatic agents. A property which strengthens the reliability of these hoses in the everyday use of bulk goods and at the same time substantially extends the areas of use.
The hose manufacturer from Gelsenkirchen that is celebrating its 125th anniversary this year shall be presenting the trade professionals with the major part of its product range. The trade fair provides an interesting platform that can be used in order to obtain information on the individual NORRES products that can be of interest to the bulk goods branch and that direct and in detail:
Extremely abrasion-proof and permanently antistatic
The abrasion-proof AIRDUC® PUR 355 INLINER-AS Plus that is being presented with a permanently antistatic wall is ideally suitable for use in areas where there are high flow rates of abrasive solids such as sand, gravel, grain, refuse glass and chips. The AIRDUC® PUR 356 INLINER-AS Plus is also permanently antistatic in addition to it being super heavy and reinforced. Hereby, customers from the heavy industry segment appreciate the reliable and sound qualities of this hose as do customers from the cement or docks industries.
The INLINER-AS versions are supplemented by the AIRDUC® PUR 355 INLINER-AS and the AIRDUC® PUR 356 INLINER-AS that are also reinforced and permanently antistatic. All of the INLINER versions of the AIRDUC range are extremely abrasion-resistant due to a special inline reinforcement and a seamless smooth interior.
Versatile and extremely reliable
Not only are the AIRDUC® PUR 350 MHF AS, 355 AS and the 356 AS especially convincing when one considers the flow rates and the long service lives and the diverse possibilities of use when transporting not only powder and dust, but also fibres and chips, this also being the case with regard to the PROTAPE® PUR 301 AS. This is the result of a flow-optimized wall of permanently antistatic premium polyurethane with an abrasion resistance that 2.5-5 higher than that of most rubber materials. The consequences especially when in everyday use involving high flow rates of the abrasive solids that are frequently transported using these hoses are a prolonged serviceable life and therefore reduced costs in application. The antistatic lining that these hoses have ex warehouse at no additional cost provide the above hoses with an electrical and surface resistance of < 109Ω.
Permanently antistatic full plastic hoses
The NORPLAST® PUR-CU 385 AS light suction and transport hose made of full plastic is supplied ex warehouse in a permanently antistatic form. It is equipped with a grounding wire and is conductive in accordance with TRBS 2153. The abrasive-proof NORPLAST® PUR-CU 385 AS is permanently antistatic and is especially suitable for use in de-dusting and suction plants, industrial vacuum cleaners and for the suction of paper and textile fibres. A further addition to the permanently antistatic hoses is the flexible and light NORPLAST® PUR 385 AS. This new full plastic hose is put to use where dust, powder or fibres are transported. NORRES will again be presenting the trade fair visitors that require heavy plastic hoses with added value in the form of the NORPLAST® PUR-CU 386 AS. This hose is also now available with a non-migrating antistatic agent as standard so that it is permanently antistatic. It is also equipped with a grounding wire and is conductive in accordance with TRBS 2153. The NORPLAST® PUR-CU 386 AS is especially suitable for transportations with high flow rates of abrasive solids such as for industrial vacuum cleaners, pellet conveying systems, blowers and compressors. The permanent antistatic version also enlarges the scope of use here and thereby enhances the efficiency of this new product.
Process reliability and occupational safety
Electrostatic charging can already occur when small quantities of solids are transported through chargeable tubes and hoses as a result of friction being caused on the wall and within the medium itself. This can result in malfunctions in the transport process, etc., this especially having an effect on the electric measuring and control devices. Incorrect hazardous conduct resulting from a startle response when a discharge takes place via the human body can place occupational safety at risk. The best protective measure against this risk is and remains the prevention of an antistatic charge by choosing the correct hose: NORRES offers its customers this additional comfort and safety with the permanently antistatic versions.
125 years of NORRES – 125 innovations
By presenting the permanently antistatic hoses, NORRES is acting in keeping with its anniversary slogan: 125 Years of NORRES and 125 innovations. Numerous innovative products and services are planned in the anniversary year in which the manufacturer of technical hoses and hose systems, in addition to cable protection systems and environmental solutions, is celebrating its 125th anniversary. The owner-managed medium-sized company shall be presenting the majority of its product and service innovations at the easyFairs® SCHÜTTGUT in Dortmund.
We are looking forward to welcoming you at the easyFairs®SCHÜTTGUT, where we can present you the NORRES products that are tailored to the needs of the bulk goods industry. Come and meet us at our stand T:03 in Hall 6!
