NEW HYGIENIC CABLE PROTECTION SYSTEMS FROM FLEXICON
Flexicon has launched eight new flexible conduit ranges and hygienic fittings to make cable installations faster , simpler and safer for applications requiring strict hygiene standards such as in the food , pharmaceutical and medical industries .
Due to only one gland being needed , installations save space . Future maintenance is also reduced since existing circuits can be replaced , upgraded or added with minimal disruption and fewer cable entry points means that it is less likely that the ingress protection will fail during washdown or cleaning .
The new flexible conduits are available with different constructions , but all feature a smooth outer cover manufactured from FDA approved ingredients which has been independently tested to European Food regulation 10 / 2011 . All conduits are compatible with Flexicon ’ s stainless steel hygienic fittings .
The hygienic grade stainless steel ( Grade 316L ) fittings have been designed in accordance with Food Processing Machinery design Standards EN1672-2 , and Safety of Machinery – Hygiene requirements for the design of machinery EN ISO14159 .
Each fitting incorporates blue compression seals and a blue nut seal to prevent the ingress of food and bacteria . It has smooth surfaces to prevent food or bacterial build up and is available in 16mm to 63mm options in straight metric thread derivatives .
When used with one of the hygienic range of conduits , the cable protection system offers ingress performance of IP66 , IP67 , IP68 ( 2Bar ) and IP69 . The conduits in the hygienic ranges all have a smooth cover for easy cleaning , are flexible for simple routing and / or dynamic installations and have a reinforced construction for good compression strength .
The ranges include non-metallic and metallic versions , with different colour options . The metallic range also features a version with an internal braid layer which can offer EMC performance . Flexicon can offer over 60 different Flexible Conduit Solutions and these products are featured in the new 12th Edition Product and Solutions Guide .
