What is a fire protection hose?
The fire protection hose is typically used to protect production workers from serious burns caused by contact with process hoses operating at a very high operating temperature. This could for example be at oil mills, steam installations or petrochemical plants. Additionally, the fire protection hose also helps to extend the lifetime of the process hose by shielding it from other external influences.
Due to its construction materials, it’s not only highly effective in preventing the spread of heat, but also relatively chemically resistant to a variety of substances.
Pyroflex: The versatile solution for every need
The Pyroflex fire protection hose complies with EN45545 and DIN5510-2 standards and is made of high-quality silicone-coated fiberglass. The construction ensures effective insulation of heat from the medium in the process hose, making handling easier and safer.
The red version without Velcro is the most affordable and can be installed on brand new pipe or hose assemblies. However, if you need to fireproof an existing installation or regularly move the fire protection hose to other process lines, for example at varying operating temperatures, the version with Velcro is the ideal choice. Both versions support a maximum temperature of 260°C, but can briefly go up to 1100°C.
In other words, a versatile fire protection solution to benefit any process industry operating economy.
Tailor-made hose solution via our assembly service
The specialists in our in-house assembly workshop work almost daily on custom assemblies. Due to our extensive know-how and expertise, there's really no limit to how complex the tasks can be. Learn more in the episode above from our video series Peter's Week.
When you let us assemble your hose solution, we attach the Pyroflex fire protection hose without Velcro to the process hose and then seal the ends by pressing stainless steel rings (as shown in the image) around the hose couplings. This way we ensure against possible contamination during operation.
