Duraline Hi-Vol: High-Performance Water Delivery Hose For Emergencies.pdf

Duraline Hi-Vol is a large diameter water delivery hose designed for efficient emergency water supply, especially when resources are limited or unavailable. It offers outstanding performance by moving as much water with one 125mm length as eight lengths of standard 64mm fire hose, thanks to its technology that minimizes pressure drop and maximizes robustness.

The hose features exceptional storage life due to a specially formulated rubber blend, ensuring durability under various conditions. Deployment and retrieval are simplified through custom-engineered systems compliant with manual handling regulations. Low maintenance is another advantage; the hose can be wiped down after use without drying and repaired easily if damaged.

Constructed from high-grade synthetic rubber extruded through an all-synthetic woven jacket, Duraline Hi-Vol resists UV and weathering. It adheres to BS EN ISO 9001:2008 quality standards with thorough testing of materials and products for reliability. The hose is equipped with Angus Corru-Grip Storz couplings and compatible manifolds and distribution equipment.

A computer program, HoseCalc, developed by Angus, assists users in calculating pressure drop in hose runs and can be downloaded from their website. Typical applications include municipal fire departments, airport fire services, chemical complexes, military bases, and civil defense authorities.

Technical specifications include diameters of 4, 5, or 6 inches (100mm, 125mm, 152mm), standard red/yellow colors with optional black, wall thicknesses from 3.0 to 4.0 mm, maximum lengths of 200m, nominal weights ranging from 1.4 to 2.2 kg/m, and a minimum short length burst pressure of 35 bar. The maximum working pressure is 17.5 bar or that of attached couplings, whichever is lower. Elongation is at 2%, with a temperature range of -20°C to +70°C.
