Plutone Tube DN 40×50 Armoville per linear meter – code: STEEL40000 – Toscogomma

Plutone Tube DN 40×50 Armoville by the linear meter (STEEL40000) – Toscogomma

The Plutone Hose is a flexible tube designed for transport of liquids in suction and delivery in contexts where ease of installation, visual fluid control, and a reinforced structure are needed. The construction in transparent PVC-P with steel reinforcement spiral makes it suitable for technical and maintenance applications, including use on process plants and equipment.

The supply is per linear meter, useful when you want to purchase the necessary length without excess, for example for replacements, restorations, or custom installations in plant engineering.

Features and construction details

The tube is made of PVC-P and includes a steel spiral as reinforcement. This structure is designed for applications where the tube may be subjected to typical suction/delivery stresses and where it is useful to maintain good section stability.

Materials and structure

• Color: transparent PVC-P
• Structure: PVC-P with steel spiral reinforcement
• Inserts: steel reinforcement spiral
• Inner surface: smooth, intended to promote a smooth flow

Transparency and visual control

The transparency of the tube facilitates identification of the transported medium and allows quick visual inspection during use (for example, to check for bubbles, residues, or color changes in the fluid), a useful aspect in many maintenance and plant management activities.

Resistance and suitability for use

The product is described as weather resistant and with a most chemical products. In the absence of a specific list of compatible substances, it is always recommended to verify compatibility with the actual fluid and the operating conditions of the plant.

Suitability for food contact

The tube is indicated as suitable for the transport of food according to Reg. EU 10/2011 (classes A, B, C). This makes it relevant for applications related to beverages and food liquids, in compliance with the correct usage and cleaning procedures required by the process.

Temperature range

Recommended operating temperature: -10 °C / +60 °C.

Possibility of grounding (conductivity)

It is reported that the tube can be made conductive (R<102 Ohm/m) grounding the coil. This information is useful when the installation requires the management of electrostatic charges: the practical implementation must be carried out according to the procedures and safety rules applicable to the system.

Packaging

• Packaging: gray polyethylene

Typical applications

Based on the available indications, the Plutone Tube is a suitable solution for the transport of:

• food liquids on suction and delivery
• beverages
• fruit juices
• vinegar
• wine
• liquors with alcohol concentration up to 20%

It is also suitable for use on filling and dosing machines, where the combination of flexibility, smooth inner surface, and transparency can be practical for the operator and for control activities.

Operational advantages

• Flexibility useful for installations and replacements in technical spaces or on machinery.
• Steel spiral reinforcement for a more robust structure compared to a non-reinforced tube.
• Smooth inner surface, recommended to promote a regular flow and easier management of liquid passage.
• Transparency for immediate visual control of the transported fluid.
• Food grade suitability declared according to EU Reg. 10/2011 (classes A, B, C), useful in food & beverage contexts.
• Possibility of grounding the spiral to make the tube conductive when required by the system.

Usage and installation notes

For correct use of the tube in plant engineering (including onboard), it is good practice to consider some general aspects:

• Cutting and measuring: being sold by the linear meter, define the necessary length considering the actual path, curves, and any installation margins.
• Fitting: choose fittings and clamps suitable for the type of system and fluid; ensure that tightening does not damage the tube.
• Chemical compatibility: even though it is indicated as resistant to most chemicals, verify compatibility with the specific product and any detergents or sanitizers used in the process.
• Food use: in food applications, adopt cleaning and management procedures consistent with the process and applicable regulations.
• Grounding: if requested, properly connect the spiral to ground according to the plant's safety rules, referring to qualified personnel.
• Temperature: respect the indicated range (-10 °C / +60 °C) in relation to the actual operating and environmental conditions.
