WORKING PRESSURE RECOMMENDATIONS
Working pressures are in accordance with RMA design
safety factors at ambient temperatures (approximately 70˚F). Texcel
cautions against using a hose outside the stated temperature limits.
Even within these limits, coupling type and hose size can negatively
impact performance at higher temperatures. For optimum performance and
safety we recommend reducing the maximum working pressure as indicated
below:
-
80° to 150°F – Reduce working pressure by 15%
-
150° to 225°F – Reduce working pressure by 30%
-
Over 225°F – Reduce working pressure by 50%
