Plutone Tube DN 14×20 Armoville per linear meter – code: STEEL14000 – Toscogomma

Plutone DN 14×20 Armoville Tube by the linear meter (STEEL14000) – Toscogomma

The Plutone DN 14×20 Armoville Tube by Toscogomma (supplier code STEEL14000) is a solution designed for the transport of food liquids and by aspiration and by delivery, when a flexible tube is needed, practical to install and with a reinforced structure. The realization in transparent PVC-P allows quick identification of the fluid in transit, useful in maintenance activities and in lines where visual control is important.

The presence of the steel reinforcement spiral contributes to the tube's stability in typical suction applications and installations where good mechanical resistance is required. The smooth inner surface is indicated to promote a smooth flow and facilitate cleaning operations in contexts compatible with the material.

Features and construction details

Structure

• Material: PVC-P.
• Color: transparent.
• Reinforcement: steel spiral.
• Surface: smooth.

Suitability for food contact

The tube is declared suitable for the transport of food according to Reg. EU 10/2011 (classes A, B, C). This information makes it suitable for applications where a regulatory reference is required for materials intended for contact with food, in compliance with the conditions of use provided by the manufacturer and the plant procedures.

Typical fluids indicated

It is indicated for the transport of food liquids and, in particular, for beverages and products such as:

• beverages and fruit juices;
• vinegar;
• wine and liquors with alcohol concentration up to 20%.

Resistance and performance in use

• Resistance to weather agents (manufacturer's indication).
• Resistance to most chemical products (always evaluate compatibility based on the specific fluid and conditions of use).
• Temperature range: -10 °C / +60 °C.

Note on conductivity and grounding

The tube can be made conductive by grounding the spiral, with declared value R<102 Ohm/m. This possibility can be useful in plants where electrostatic dissipation management is desired according to the procedures and checks provided by the installation.

Recommended applications

Thanks to the combination of PVC-P flexibility and spiral reinforcement, the Plutone Tube is commonly used in technical contexts where it is necessary to handle food liquids with visual control of fluid passage.

Plants and transfer lines

• transfer lines of suction and delivery for food liquids;
• connecting sections in transfer and distribution systems;
• installations where the transparency facilitates fluid inspection.

Filling and dosing machines

It is also suitable for use on filling and dosing machines, where flow regularity and the ability to visually identify the product can be useful during operational and control phases.

Operational advantages

The main advantages of this tube are especially evident in terms of ease of use and consistency with declared food applications.

• Immediate visual check: the transparent structure helps to check the presence of fluid, any bubbles or residues, and the general condition of the line.
• Reinforcement with steel spiral: supports use in suction and contributes to tube stability during use.
• Smooth inner surface: designed to promote a regular flow and reduce accumulation points, depending on the type of product transferred and the cleaning procedures adopted.
• Declared food suitability: reference to Reg. EU 10/2011 (classes A, B, C) for use with foodstuffs, in compliance with applicable conditions.
• Possibility of grounding: the spiral can be grounded to make the tube conductive (according to indication R<102 Ohm/m), when required by the system.

Usage and notes for selection

Supply by linear meter

The product is offered per linear meter: this allows purchasing the length best suited to the installation, reducing waste and simplifying warehouse management for maintenance or replacement interventions.

Installation instructions (generic)

• Verify that the use falls within the temperature range -10 °C / +60 °C.
• Evaluate the chemical compatibility with the specific fluid and any detergents or sanitizers used in the system.
• If electrostatic dissipation is necessary, provide for the grounding of the spiral according to plant procedures.
• For food applications, adopt cleaning and management practices consistent with the process and the manufacturer's instructions.
