125 years of NORRES Schlauchtechnik– the next good idea in the anniversary year

The 125 innovations in the 125th anniversary year continues with NORRES Schlauchtechnik expanding its stock of full plastic hoses: the reliable and lightweight NORPLAST^® PUR-CU 385 AS and NORPLAST^® PUR 385 AS together with the strong and robust NORPLAST^® PUR-CU 386 AS, are immediately available ex warehouse in an antistatic version. All of the hoses have one thing in common: a permanent conductivity without any migrating antistatic. With this good idea, NORRES is expanding the area of use of the full plastic hoses for its customers.

Flexible, abrasion-proof and permanently antistatic

The light full plastic NORPLAST^® PUR-CU 385 AS suction and transport hose is now supplied in an antistatic version ex warehouse. It is fitted with a grounding wire and is conductive in accordance with TRBS 2153. The abrasion-proof NORPLAST^® PUR-CU 385 AS is permanently antistatic and is especially suitable for use in de-dusting and suction plants in addition to industrial vacuum cleaners and for the suction of paper and textile fibres.

As a further addition, the flexible and lightweight NORPLAST^® PUR 385 AS is now permanently antistatic. This new full plastic hose can especially be put to use where dust, powders or fibres are transported.

Robust, abrasion-proof and permanently antistatic

When it comes to meeting their demands for heavy plastic hoses, NORRES is again able to offer its customers added value with the NORPLAST^® PUR-CU 386 AS as this hose is also immediately available with a non-migrating antistatic agent as standard, rendering it permanently antistatic. It is also fitted with a grounding wire and is conductive in accordance with TRBS 2153. The NORPLAST^® PUR-CU 386 AS is especially suitable for the transportation of abrasive solids with a high throughput, e.g. for industrial vacuum cleaners, granulate conveying systems and compressors. The permanently antistatic design also expands the range 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 is no able to offer its customers this additional comfort and safety with the permanently antistatic NORPLAST^® PUR-CU 385 AS, NORPLAST^® PUR 385 AS and NORPLAST^® PUR-CU 386 AS. With this innovation, NORRES is expanding the area of use of its tried and tested hoses for its full plastic range customers.
