This European Standard specifies requirements for four types of wire braid reinforced hoses and hose assemblies of nominal bore from 5 to 51. They are suitable for use with:
- hydraulic fluids in accordance with ISO 6743-4 with the exception of HFD R, HFD S and HFD T at temperatures ranging from —0 ℃ to +100 ℃;
- water based fluids at temperatures ranging from -40 ℃ to +70 ℃;
- water at temperatures ranging from 0 ℃ to +70 ℃
The standard does not include requirements for end fittings. It is limited to the performance of hoses and hose assemblies.
NOTE 1. The hoses are not suitable for use with castor oil based and ester based fluids.
NOTE 2. Hoses and hose assemblies should not be operated outside the limits of this standard.
NOTE 3. Requirements for hydraulic hoses for underground mining are standardized in separate standards.
