Maintenance of Ultra High Pressure Water Blasting Hoses should focus on pressure resistance stability, damage prevention, and aging prevention. Scientific maintenance can significantly reduce the risk of failure and extend service life.
Daily use and damage prevention are fundamental. Avoid dragging or rubbing the Ultra High Pressure Water Blasting Hose against sharp objects. When bending, maintain a reasonable radius of curvature, not exceeding the minimum bending value specified by the product. Keep away from high-temperature sources and corrosive substances during operation to prevent burns or corrosion to the hose wall. Avoid forcefully tightening joints to prevent damage at the interface.
Pressure control and start-up/shutdown procedures are crucial. Operating pressure must be strictly controlled within the rated pressure range. Overpressure operation is strictly prohibited, as it can lead to hose fatigue and damage. Increase pressure slowly when starting the equipment and release pressure before stopping to avoid sudden pressure increases or decreases that could impact the hose and extend the service life of the inner pressure-bearing layer.
Proper storage and maintenance during idle periods are essential. When not in use for extended periods, clean the hose thoroughly, drain any residual moisture, coil it into a standard radius, and store it in a dry, ventilated place. Avoid direct sunlight and humid environments to prevent rubber aging and cracking. Also, keep it away from heavy objects and keep it flat and wrinkle-free.
Regular inspections and hazard identification are crucial. Before each use, check the surface of the Ultra High Pressure Water Blasting Hose for bulges, damage, and leaks, and ensure the joint seals are intact. Regularly verify the hose's pressure resistance; if pressure drop or surface cracks are observed, replace it promptly to prevent sudden malfunctions. It is recommended to establish a maintenance log to record usage time and inspection results for precise maintenance.
