Hydraline FX & Hydraline SB
Cut the hose to the desired length using a cut off machine with a high
tensile steel blade, allowing for the length of the end fittings.
Push the ferrule onto the hose (chamfered end first) and insert the fitting
and push into the hose until it meets the collar on the fitting. Align the
ferrule over the collar.
Place the assembly into the swaging machine and swage down the ferrule to
the recommended swage dimension as given in Aflex Document AS-42. Check
using a vernier or micrometer.
Hydraline V (or Visiflon)
Cut the hose to the desired length using a cut off machine with a high
tensile steel blade, allowing for the length of the end fittings.
Push the ferrules onto the hose (chamfered end first) and push the black
de-convoluting tool into the hose turning in a clockwise direction. When
the tool is fully inserted given 2 or 3 more turns to complete the process of
de-convoluting, then unscrew and remove the tool.
Insert the fittings, align the ferrules over the collars.
Place the assembly into the swaging machine and swage down the ferrule to
the recommended swage dimension as given in the Aflex Document AS-42.
Check the finished swage dimension using a vernier or micrometer.
Testing - Hydrostatically pressure test all the hose
assemblies with water to 1.5 times the maximum working pressure as given in this
section for one minute before supplying to end use.
