5.2.1 Instructions for Installation of Water Connections Using Flexible Hoses
Warranty will only apply if the following
instructions are observed and if installa
tion is performed in compliance with DIN-
EN regulations.
In particular, corrosive, electrochemical,
and bacteriological charges are to be ex
cluded taking appropriate preventive
measures.
Pressure and exposition to heat may result in slight
elongation of the hose.
Therefore, newly placed hoses must consider such
potential elongation.
Do not fall below the admissible bending
radius R
min
(chart), neither during transport, nor
during installation or when installed.
If it should turn out impossible to keep the admissible
bending radius, choose a different installation type.
For minimum length see chart below.
If the hose is being placed by bending it, check
whether there is sufficient hose length to allow for an
open bow in order to avoid
kinking and destruction of the hose at the connecting
points.
Absolutely avoid distorting or kinking the flexible
connection.
Do not subject the hose to any tensile or pressure
loads
applied
from
outside,
neither
during
installation nor operation.
Do not retighten rigid connections (outer thread) after
fixing the second connection since this might result
in distortion of or damage to the hose.
In
general,
tightness
of
the
connection
(hose/connector) is the responsibility of the
technician performing the installation. Do not
over-tighten.
Any sealing material included in the delivery is to be
verified by the technician for its
suitability since the hose manufacturer has no
information about the material or geometry of the
connections.
