The change from conventional stainless steel
pipework to PTFE hose is not in itself revolutionary. However, the new
HydroGienic® design enables small bore PTFE hoses to be employed to
considerable advantage. Instead of designing the piped distribution
system around the user points in conventional series, with all of the
associated hydraulic design problems, the use of small bore hoses allows
cost effective installation of users in parallel. In other words, each
individual offtake point has a flow and return hose connection back to
the plant room vessel through which a minimum flow velocity is
maintained.
Connects user points in parallel instead of via a conventional
re-circulating loop
Employs small bore PTFE hoses rather than stainless steel welded
ring mains
Utilises a unique and innovative reverse flow principle for hydraulic balancing which allows long distance of hose to be run at small bores and lower pressures (<10 bar) delivering the required flow rates at points of use.
