Applicator Systems hoses can be used for a variety of purposes, such as gas sampling, transferrring and heating adhesives, potting materials, coatings, chemicals, petroleum products, plastics, and other applications that require a heated line for process performance and improved flow behavior.
 
 
Beware. With some manufacturers, once the sleeving is on all bets are off. At Applicator Systems, our technicians combine the correct materials for your application from the core outward.
 
 
The most important element of a heated hose is the core. The inner hose is made of high grade PTFE (Teflon) tubing with 304 stainless steel braded around the outer surface. The reinforced Teflon tube assures the most efficient transfer of molten materials.

PTFE tubing is resistant to almost all acids, solvents, and hydrocarbons. Combined with the stainless steel braid, you get outstanding resistance to heat, pressure, pulsing, flexing, and vibration.
 
 
Applicator Systems offers a selection of fittings to meet a broad range of application needs. Fittings employ a progressive swaging method of attachment. The use of this method is based on extensive development and engineering. The Teflon inner core and stainless overbraid lock firmly between the fitting collar and insert for a permanent, leak- proof assembly. The positive braid lock assures that any strain is absorbed by the braid, not the Teflon hose. A crimp method may be used in certain applications. Whatever your application, we have the correct fitting to mate with your machine.

All Applicator Systems hose core assemblies are proof-pressure tested at 2 times the recommended operating pressure or to customer requirements. The test medium is water.

Heating elements in Applicator Sustems hoses are made of high-grade heat-conducting alloys that are KAPTON insulated. The element is spiral-wrapped around the hose on a bedding layer of silicone tape and/or fiberglass.

The PTFE insulated control leads are spiral-wrapped around the hose/heater assembly. When required, the cordset may run the length of the hose to provide control and electrical power to the gun or other dispensing device.

Several layers of fiberglass. Aramid, and polyester insulate the hose/heater assembly. The insulation is 100% fiber that is mechanically bonded: it contains no resins, fillers, or other materials that may harden, melt, or become brittle in a continuous high temperatureenvironment. The fiberglass/aoramid insulation can be used for opertion in an environment of up to 750?F.

All Applicator Systems hoses are capable of continous, efficient service at sustained temperatures ranging from –100%F to +500?F. Higher operating temperatures may be obtained by the use of special materials.

To regulate the operating temperature of the assembly, one of several types of temperature sensors can be used-R.T.D. (resistance temperature detector), thermistor, thermocouple, or thermostat. All temperature control devices are engineered for 100% compatibility with existing hot melt equipment, whether Nordson, LTI, Mercer, Meltex, Accumeter, Valco, Slautterback, Pyles, Spraymation, or others.

Applicator Systems' "Power Brick" temperature controllers can be used when power and control are required for applications where no controller exists. This simple, low cost temperature controller offers accurate temperature control for Applicator Systems' custom hoses.

The standard hose covering is a polyester braid that provide abrasion resistance. Other covering material options are available, including neoprene for water resistance, braided silicon treated fiberglass for high heat resistance, or colored polyester to aid in color coding and identification.
