BROEN LAB offers BROEN UniFlex™ hoses and flexible Stainless Steel pipes as an easy way to make the installation in the
laboratory where safety and efficiency are required. BROEN UniFlex™ hoses are the ideal solution where there is a higher
requirement for flexibility. Installation with flexible hoses saves time and labour - in other words - reduced installation
costs.
Select the right product to ensure safe installation and long service life!

SELECTION GUIDE
The total design of the system must be taken into consideration when selecting the type of BROEN UniFlex™ flexible hose or pipe
for specific media. Only then products will provide safe, trouble-free operation.
Please always check local requirements/regulations regarding installation and maintenance of hoses/flexible pipes!
A very high quality of materials applied for production of hoses and Stainless Steel flexible pipes, which are supplied by BROEN
LAB, and a long-time experience in making installations worldwide, combined with optimal installation conditions, may assure
a lifetime for a hose to be more than 10 years. Expected lifetime can only be achieved under normal use and proper installation
methods, which are described in technical specifications, i.e. max. working pressure, max. temperature, physical installation
methods and other. Any nonconformity to specifications decreases the lifetime of a hose/flexible pipe.
Which hose/flexible pipe to select?
In the table below you find the summary of the factors that are necessary to consider when selecting a BROEN UniFlex™
flexible hoses/pipes.

** PTFE and rubber are penetrable materials meaning that gases, vapors, and liquids may diffuse through them. Therefore,
for applications where a defined gas content is required, or absorbed gases might disturb applications, alternative
materials could be considered. Check compatibility with gases in application!
*** For applications requiring higher temperatures please contact your BROEN LAB representative
