BS EN 14420-8 is an international standard used for Hose fittings with clamp units. This BS EN 14420-8 is useful in manufacturing these coupling which are useful in fitting the hoses.
BS EN 14420-8 specifies dimensions, types of connections, quality of materials, marking requirements and testing requirements for hose fittings with symmetrical half couplings (Guillemin system), with a mobile locking ring, for hose assemblies with a maximum working pressure of up to 10 bar1) with hose tails according to EN 14420-2 and clamp units according to EN 14420-3. Couplings in accordance with this document serve as a link between hoses and connections to transport liquids, solids (e.g., powders, granules) except steam and liquid gas. The working temperature range is –20 °C up to +65 °C.
BS EN 14420-8 on Hose fittings with clamp units is useful for:
Two different hoses are connected with the help of half coupling. Using BS EN 14420-8 you can determine the mechanical characteristics of investment casting.
The dimensions mentioned in BS EN 14420-8 is useful in designing these hoses. Specifications and requirements specified are useful in identifying the materials which are resistant to the fluids.
By using BS EN 14420-8 you can ensure the sustainability of these hoses and couplings in different conditions. With the help of BS EN 14420-8, you can improve the quality of these symmetrical half couplings used in fitting the hoses. By applying BS EN 14420-8, you can manufacture couplings for hoses.
