Chemical Industrial Hoses | Parker | LIGHT-N-BRIGHT™ Modified XLPE Chemical Hose (External PVC Helix) | SP483 Series


Series SP483 is an extremely flexible suction and discharge hose designed to handle many commonly used acids, chemicals and solvents. The modified cross-linked polyethylene (MXLPE) tube will not leach into and contaminate the product being conveyed. The lightweight hose construction incorporates a static wire as a path to conduct an electrical charge to ground, and the cover features an external PVC helix for full suction capability and superior abrasion, crush and kink resistance. Series SP100 banding coils are recommended for installation of couplings. Series XSP100 abrasion coils are available for maximum abrasion resistance along the entire length of the hose.

WARNING!

  • It is the responsibility of the user to determine if the hose is suitable for the application. Most chemical resistance guides are based on temperatures of 70°F (21°C). Elevated temperatures can change the chemical resistance ratings. Many chemicals will become more aggressive as temperatures increase, reducing the ability of hose compounds to withstand them. Contact Parker for chemical compatibility data at elevated temperatures. If no data exists, users are required to perform compatibility testing at the desired temperature.
  • At operating temperatures of 125°F and above, only permanently attached couplings should be installed. At any operating temperature, couplings attached with bands or clamps may reduce the working pressure of the hose assembly to less than the maximum rated working pressure of the hose. Refer to the NAHAD Industrial Hose Assembly Guidelines.
  • „Do not use with internally expanded couplings. Refer to chemical hoses that incorporate a MXLPE tube.
