Product catalog summary
Company Overview
ZEC, established in 1961 by Eugenio Zantelli, is a prominent European manufacturer of thermoplastic hoses for various pressure applications. The company provides a diverse range of hoses for sectors such as hydraulic, pneumatic, lubrication, solvent, paint, and gas, adhering to international standards like DIN, SAE, EN, and ISO.
Product Specifications
The document highlights the specifications of ZEC's thermoplastic hoses, focusing on the FR5 series designed for refrigeration systems in both stationary and automotive industries. These hoses are recognized for their flexibility, ease of assembly, and low permeability to refrigerant gases, including CO2.
Technical Advantages
ZEC hoses offer several benefits over traditional hoses, such as reduced weight and size, excellent resistance to fatigue stress and vibrations, minimal head-loss, and a long lifespan due to the anti-aging properties of the materials used.
Product Range
The document details various hose sizes and specifications, including diameters, core materials, braid types, cover materials, burst and working pressures, bend radius, and weight. The hoses are available in different colors and lengths, with specific fittings and accessories provided.
Permeability Test Results
Results from permeability tests conducted according to EN 1736:2008 are included, showing leakage rates for different refrigerant gases at various temperatures and pressures.
Quality Assurance
ZEC's commitment to quality is demonstrated by its ISO 9001:2008 certification and rigorous quality control processes, ensuring high reliability and performance of its products.
Conclusion
ZEC continues to innovate and expand its product offerings to meet the evolving needs of the global industry, providing customized solutions and maintaining a strong export presence worldwide.
Introduction
The document discusses an innovative material composed of polyamide (PA) and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), combining the mechanical strength and low gas permeability of polyamides with the flexibility of elastomers, without the need for plasticizing additives. This material is effective as a barrier against refrigerant gases and offers excellent chemical resistance to lubricating oils.
Specifications
The ZEC Freon FR5 thermoplastic hoses are designed for refrigeration and automotive applications, offering flexibility, lightweight, vibration damping, and ease of assembly. They can handle refrigerant gases like R-744 (CO2) which requires high operating pressures, up to 120 bar, with a safety ratio of 1:5. The hoses comply with UNI EN 1736 standards and have a working temperature range of -45°C to +130°C.
Compliance and Standards
The hoses meet the requirements of the F-Gas directives (2006/40/EC and 2006/842/CE) for low environmental impact refrigerants (GWP < 150). They also comply with REACH (2006/1907/EC) and RoHS (2002/95/EC) directives.
Technical Features
The internal core of the hoses is made of elastomerized polyamide, reinforced with high tenacity polyester yarn, and covered with anti-abrasion polyurethane, providing high resistance to pressure and surface abrasion.
Fittings and Accessories
The document lists various fittings and accessories for the FR5 series, including T fittings, elbows, straight fittings, and ferrules for different hose diameters (DN2, DN4, DN6, etc.).
Freon Charging TLP Hoses
The ZEC Freon Charging TLP hoses are developed for automotive refrigerant systems, offering superior flexibility and resistance compared to traditional elastomeric hoses. They have a low minimum bend radius and high resistance to kinking. The hoses comply with SAE J2196 and SAE J2888 standards, with a working pressure of 60 bar and a burst pressure of 300 bar. The operating temperature range is -30°C to +95°C.
Conclusion
The document highlights the advanced features and compliance of ZEC's thermoplastic hoses, making them suitable for modern refrigeration and automotive applications, especially where high pressure and environmental standards are critical.
Specifications
The document outlines the specifications of ZEC Freon Charging TLP hoses, designed for use with various refrigerants such as R-407c, R-410a, R-507, R-600a, R-744, and HFO-1234yf. These hoses exhibit excellent chemical resistance to lubricating oils and are reinforced with high tenacity polyester yarn and a micro-perforated thermoplastic polymer cover. They exceed the performance requirements of SAE J2196 and SAE J2888 standards, with a maximum working pressure of 60 bar and a minimum burst pressure of 300 bar. The working temperature range is -30°C to +95°C.
Permeability Test
The document includes a permeability test comparing ZEC TLP hoses with typical elastomer hoses for refrigerants like R-12 and R-134a. The ZEC hoses show significantly lower permeability rates, indicating better performance in containing refrigerant gases.
Assembly Instructions
The assembly process is crucial for achieving the desired hose specifications. Key steps include cutting the hose perpendicularly, inserting the fitting, selecting the correct ferrule, and crimping with manual pliers. The document emphasizes using ZEC products for optimal performance and provides detailed instructions for crimping and inspecting the fittings.
Installation Regulations
The document references installation regulations in compliance with SAE J1273 and ISO 8331 standards, ensuring proper installation and safety.
