How do I properly install a Hydraulic Braided Hose to ensure the safety of my system?- Ningbo Shunlong Rubber Hose Co., Ltd.

Proper installation of Hydraulic Braided Hose is an important part of ensuring safe and efficient operation of hydraulic systems. During installation, multiple aspects must be carefully considered to avoid losses or safety hazards caused by hose failure or improper installation. Choosing the right hydraulic braided hose is crucial. When selecting, you need to ensure that the specifications of the hose meet the needs of the system. This includes the inner diameter, working pressure, temperature range and other physical characteristics. For example, the inner diameter of the hose must match the flow requirements of the system to avoid poor flow or excessive pressure. The working pressure of the hose must be higher than the maximum working pressure of the system to ensure safe operation under high loads. In addition, the material of the hose must adapt to the working environment of the system, such as chemical corrosion, UV exposure, high or low temperatures. Different materials of hoses may be required in different environments, such as rubber, polyurethane, etc.

After selecting the hose, the next step is to clean and prepare the hose and its accessories. Before installation, you must ensure that the hose and all accessories (such as joints, flanges, etc.) are clean and free of contamination. Any dust, oil or debris will affect the performance of the hydraulic system and may even cause equipment failure. For the hose itself, also carefully check its appearance to make sure there are no cracks, wear, bubbles or any other damage. If a problematic hose is found, it must be replaced immediately. Even if the hose looks fine, it is best to confirm it again before installation to avoid affecting the overall operation due to details.

When connecting the hydraulic braided hose correctly, you must ensure that the hose is aligned with the connector. Improper connection will cause the hose to be subjected to excessive tension or bending, increasing the risk of leakage. When connecting, the hose should be kept in a straight line as little as possible, and the connection point should be tightened in place. Use appropriate tools (such as wrenches) to tighten the connector, but avoid over-tightening. Excessive torque may cause damage to the hose or connector and eventually cause leakage. Correct connection not only ensures the reliability of system operation, but also prevents the hose from malfunctioning due to excessive force.

During the installation process, avoiding excessive bending of the hose is another important consideration. Each hydraulic braided hose has a minimum bending radius. Exceeding this radius may cause uneven pressure inside the hose, thereby affecting the flow efficiency of the fluid or even damaging the hose. Where the hose needs to be bent, special care should be taken to avoid excessive angles. In order to ensure the safety and long-term stable operation of the hose, a bracket can be used to fix the hose. The bracket can not only help the hose maintain a suitable bending angle, but also prevent the hose from rubbing against other objects and avoid wear.

After the installation is completed, it is also very important to check the system pressure and flow. When the hydraulic system is in operation, the pressure and flow must meet the design standards of the hose. Otherwise, the hose may be damaged due to excessive pressure or flow. Before the system is started, it is necessary to carefully confirm that the working pressure of the system does not exceed the maximum pressure of the hose and that the fluid flows smoothly. If any abnormality is found during the operation of the system, the hose connection should be checked immediately to ensure that there is no problem caused by improper installation.

This sealing check is also an important part of the installation process. After all connections are completed, it is very necessary to perform a leak detection. Leakage can seriously affect the efficiency of the hydraulic system and may cause environmental pollution or safety accidents. It is common practice to use methods such as soapy water for leak detection to ensure that all connection points are well sealed and no oil leaks. If a leak is found, the joint should be re-tightened immediately or the problematic accessories should be replaced. The use of appropriate sealing gaskets and sealing materials is also the key to ensuring that the connection does not leak.
