Sanitation hose
Sanitation hose
I've just fitted this stuff to my old Westerly Longbow as I rather suspected the old hose was getting choked up or blocked and hadn't been replaced for many years.
Flying Goose, post 18, gives a valuable tip about heating the hose before pushing it onto fittings. I did the same but using a pint mug of near boiling water to do the job.
Anyway, main reason for posting is to say that what I thought would be a one hour job took nearer ten hours. Main problem was the time I had to spend cleaning out the Henderson pump of accumulated limescale or whatever it is. Crikey, it took some shifting. Then cleaned the valves on the pump before reassembling it and finding I had the alignment of the handle wrong. Stripped again and reassembled only to find I had trapped a bit of the main diaphragm in the join and the pump was leaking. Stripped and reassembled, this time the screw fittings holding the exit valve in place were leaking. Stripped, sorted and reassembled... next time it'll be a new pump and hang the cost!
Oh, and allow for needing some new jubilee clips. Some of my old ones were corroded and had to be cut off, another bit of awkward hacksaw work.
wishing you success - at least, more than I had!

How to Select the Right Sanitary Hoses for Your Plant
Sanitary hoses play a critical role in sanitary processing. A hose is a flexible connector used to transfer product from point A to point B in a variety of sanitary segments, including dairy, food, beverage, personal care, pharmaceutical and bio-pharm processing. Sanitary hoses come in a variety of construction materials including rubber, teflon, PVC, and silicone. Your process application will determine the options you require.
Selecting the Right Sanitary Hose
Selecting the right hose for the job requires careful examination, and managers must determine which hose type will be appropriate for their specific needs. Important considerations include hose construction and coupling styles. Plant managers must also evaluate hose performance metrics that include working pressure, minimum bend radius, vacuum and discharge, and bacteria resistance. Smooth handling, bounce back design, and temperature resistance also have a role in the selection process.

Not all hoses are constructed in the same way and with the same components, so we recommend using a S.T.A.M.P.E.D. analysis process when selecting a sanitary hose solution.
S &#; size of hose, specifically inside diameter
T &#; temperature resistance for both product transfer and cleaning
A &#; application; what will the hose be used for and how, where, and when will it be used
M &#; the media that will be transferred
P &#; pressure for both product transfer and cleaning
E &#; end connectors, including the type and alignment with standard sanitation equipment couplings
D &#; delivery status; how quickly can the hose be deployed and any special packing requirements
