2.3.2 Connection with a rubber hose
Installation of the standards-compliant rubber hose must be carried
out so that the hose length is no greater than 1.5 metres. Make
sure that the hose does not come into contact with moving parts or
is squashed. The inside diameter of the hose must be 8 mm for
LIQUID GAS and 13 mm for NATURAL GAS.
Verify that all the following conditions are met:
• the hose is fixed to the hose connection with safety clamps;
• no part of the hose is in contact with the hot walls (max. 50 °C);
• the hose is not under traction or tension and has no tight curves or
twists;
• the hose is not in contact with sharp objects or sharp corners;
• if the hose is not perfectly airtight and leaks gas,
do not try and
repair it : replace it with a new hose;
• verify that the hose is not beyond its life cycle (serigraphed on the
hose itself).
Connection using rubber hoses complying with the current
regulations is only permitted if the hose can be inspected along
its entire length.
Tighten securely all the connections, ensuring the connection
incorporating the seal is at least 15 Nm and does not exceed
20 Nm.
