Our Service: The Complete Hose Assembly.

There are three prerequisites for a perfect hose assembly: suitability and quality of the components, their compatibility with each other and professional assembling.

For decades, this is our ‚core competence‘. We ensure that our customers receive a suitable combination of hose and coupling – not only for self-assembling but also as ready-to-use hose assembly.

After consultation, or to your specification, we take care of the rest. Hose cut to length, assembling of hose tail and clamps, mounting accessories, testing (electrical conductivity and pressure test if applicable), additional marking, quality control and issuing of test certificates. ELAFLEX is certified to issue conformity declarations according to the European Pressure Equipment Directive. Prior to dispatch the hose assembly is marked according to standard specification, and finally quality checked.

Accessories : for the protection against kinking, abrasion, torsion and heat we can supply a range of additional parts which will help to prolong the service life of your hose assembly. Also for the additional marking to customer‘s requirement there are possibilities, e.g. with Band-It. If required, we will also gladly take over the assembly of parts supplied by the client.

Distribution to the user normally is effected by our stock holding Sales Partners. These local links to the customer assemble complete hose lines-functional and finely tuned to your needs. Apart from fast and professional service some ELAFLEX Sales Partners offer mobile pressure tests or assembly on site.

Nozzles + Spare Parts

Quality by Design for the Forecourt …

If you are a motorist it is very likely that you already had in hand one of our products: the internationally renown automatic nozzle ZVA for service stations.

Oil companies, original equipment manufacturers and service companies favour user-friendly, durable and innovative nozzles with high flow rates.

Due to its modular system all major parts can be replaced. ZVA are suitable for every petrol dispenser, every hose and every vehicle filler neck. Additional retrofitting in the field is trouble free.

The modular construction method of the ZVA enables economical maintenance and repair work. Simple repairs can be done on-site by service company personnell. In the workshop, the ZVA nozzle can be stripped down and put back together in minutes. With one or two intermittend repairs, a ZVA will regularly reach a service life of ten years and more.

These factors result in the fact that our nozzles – inspite of their cost price level being above the average – show the lowest Total Cost of Ownership for our customers. In this calculation also our Slimline standard dispensing hoses, COAX dispensing hoses and accessories like Safety Breaks and Sight Glasses can be included.

Besides our most important nozzles, ZVA Slimline 2 and ZVA Slimline 2 GR, you will find the following forecourt nozzles and components in catalogue section 5 :

1. COAX hose assemblies for active vapour recovery
2. Product Badges EK 145 ( try our new BadgeSelector for a quick choice! )
3. ZVA 25, HiFlo for truck refuelling
4. ZVA Slimline AdBlue for the filling of trucks with urea solution (DEF, ARLA 32, AUS 32)
5. ZVG and GasGuard nozzles for Autogas LPG

…and for many other applications.

Alle fluid and gaseous media can be dispensed by a nozzle.

Elaflex offers suitable nozzles for most industrial applications: heating oil, lubricating oil, chemicals, foodstuffs, alcohols, L.P. Gas :

1. ZVA 32, HiFlo automatic nozzle, up to 200 l/min
2. ZVA Slimline 2, ZVA 25, ZVA 32 in special versions for aircraft refuelling
3. ZVF 25 and ZVF 40 (new: ZVF 50), non automatic, for aircraft refuelling
4. ZVA Slimline, ZVA 25 for chemicals, solvents and foodstuffs/alcohols, ZVA 25 GR also with vapour recovery, for solvents
5. ZV 19, ZV 25 – non automatic, for flowrates up to 140 l/min
6. ZV 400, ZV 500, ZH 50: manual HiFlo nozzles up to 750 l/min, for road tanker delivery with heating oil, Diesel etc.; special versions of ZV 400/500 or chemicals and solvents

Rubber Expansion Joints

ERV FOR FLEXIBLE CONNECTIONS.
Rubber Expansion Joints (compensators) are used as flexible connectors within pipe systems.

Rubber Expansion Joints

ERV for Flexible Connections.

Rubber Expansion Joints (compensators) are used as flexible connectors within pipe systems. Based on the German expression „Elastische Rohrverbinder“ the type brand ERV® is being used.

ERV expansion joints from Elaflex are moulded single sphere type rubber bellows with swiveling metal flanges. Their construction and lengths (installation sizes) have since become internationally recognised standard.

Problem Solvers within Pipe Systems :

1. ERV are distinguished by a large axial, lateral and angular range of allowable movement, low reaction forces and low inherent resistance.
2. ERV are used to absorb tensions caused by temperature changes (thermal expansion), and equalize structural settling such as basement subsiding or ground movements.
3. ERV are suitable as a pipe insert / expansion piece to facilitate inspections
4. ERV are perfect noise dampeners and ideally qualified to reduce vibrations. The major part of the piping‘s structure-borne noise and the low-frequency noise generated by fluids is eliminated.
5. ERV also serve to equalise assembly inaccuracies. If ERV are provided for during the planning phase there will be less problems during installation caused by inaccuracy.

Large inventory: ELAFLEX Hamburg constantly stocks more than 20.000 premium quality bellows – basis for a fast, reliable delivery.

Depending on the operation conditions you choose the right ERV-type (i.e. EPDM, NBR, Hypalon or Neoprene). ELAFLEX offers 13 different types, DN 25 – 1000 mm, in various lengths.

Quality production: only premium quality bellows exclusively made for us by ContiTech, Germany are used. Both ELAFLEX and ContiTech have a reputaion for reliability and longevity.

Quality Example: TW Couplings from the Specialist

TW road tanker couplings to EN 14420-6 (previously DIN 28450) were developed approximately fifty years ago, among other with ELAFLEX contribution. These couplings with their simple and leak-free connection substituted many non-standardised coupling types, a standardisation which made sense..

During the past years, prices and unfortunately also quality came under pressure with many suppliers. One should not forget what it is all about in the refuelling business: good value products – without compromising safety and functionality.

In view of many low-priced TW-couplings in the market, the user should not forget what is important when transferring costly or hazardous media: a good price-performance ratio, without compromising functionality or safety.

ELAFLEX ‘TW’ couplings are manufactured according tight quality standards:

1. more than sufficient wall thickness for resistance against wear, thus longer service life
2. dimensions true to gauge, checked with exact measuring equipment, for reliable functioning
3. brass couplings are hot stamped (heavy forging dies, maximum stability against cracking)
4. stainless steel couplings investment casted, free of shrink holes, electro-polished surface
5. material specifications stipulated by the standard are met (something that unfortunately can not be taken for granted any more with many manufacturers)
6. careful processing of the raw parts• first choice spares, e.g. springs, bolts and sealings
7. clear manufacturers branding – inportant in case of product liability issues. Next time you are confronted with low priced TW couplings from competitors, please note whether you can individuate the manufacturer of the product. Even for simple applications such as the bulk transfer of grain or cement, broken couplings (we can show you several examples) can lead to high consequential cost due to product loss. Without knowing the manufacturing company, you might be liable. Trying to cut corners to save a few euros can be a very costly experience.
