Features and Advantages
  • Superior Static Protection! - A properly grounded Voltbuster™ hose will not retain an electrostatic charge sufficient to create a propagating brush discharge. Hose material, using the embedded grounding wire, shows a charge decay time constant of < 1 second, based on independent lab testing.
  • Food Grade Materials - Hose tube complies with FDA (05) requirements. Grounding wire embedded in external helix to prevent material contamination.
  • Extra Thick Abrasion Resistant Double-Ply Polyurethane Tube - Provides for longer hose life and lower operating costs versus rubber or PVC hoses.
  • Fabric Reinforcement - Designed with high tensile strength, food grade FDA (06), polyester yarn jacket to handle both suction, and higher pressure discharge applications.
  • Transparent Construction - "See-the-flow". Allows for visual conformation of material flow.
  • "Cold-Flex" Materials - Hose remains flexible in sub-zero temperatures.
  • Easy Slide Helix - Rigid helix design protects hose from wear; allows hose to slide easily over rough surfaces. Easy to handle.

Caution
Grounding wire is designed to help dissipate static charge when extracted and connected to ground. Hose is not to be used in combustible situations unless it has been determined by the end user the application if not sufficient to result in propagating brush discharge.
