Hose Connections (REFLEX)



The REFLEX system is designed to prevent any kind of restriction in inner diameter between the
metal fitting and the Silicon Hose ensuring continuous product flow without any disturbance and
minimizing the delta pressure. This results to time savings by allowing on-site cleaning (CIP) to be
performed without disassembly and in shorter time. The REFLEX system ensures a higher level of
non-retention in the line and bacteria traps, as well as greater safety of use.

CSK-BIO offers a complete line of stainless steel fittings including hose assemblies in crimp-on
version. All the fittings are manufactured from 316L stainless steel barstock and have a standard
surface finish of Ra ≤ 0.8 µm. CSK-BIO hose stems feature an interlock technology that locks the
crimp collar with the mating hose stem. This interlock technology prevents fitting blow-off at
elevated temperature and pressure.

Each hose crimp design has been performance tested; all fittings are designed to exceed burst
pressure specifications of the hose. As an option, a pressure test certificate can be provided
for the hose assemblies. A low impact radial crimp technique ensures smooth hose to fitting
transition thereby minimizing bacteria traps and product hold-up. Hose assemblies can be sanitized
with short-term CIP/SIP cycles.
