Antimicrobial Food Grade Flexible Liquidtight Conduit
Liquatite® Food Grade electrical conduit Types LAFG and LSSFG now have an improved PVC jacketing. These enhancements include a new food processing blue color, an even wider temperature range, and are now antimicrobial. These conduits are ideally suited for Food Processing, Pharmaceutical, and Bottling Equipment installations.
Food Processing Blue Jacketing
The new food processing blue color has grown in popularity due to its increased safety features and is installed in food processing applications around the world. The blue color provides high visibility for fast moving machinery and operations. Blue coloring is also an important safety consideration, as manufacturers can easily spot the blue color if fragments break off and get into the product.
Antimicrobial
The flexible PVC jacketing now contains an antimicrobial biocide additive. This additive inhibits the growth of commonly known food processing microbes, such as E. coli, listeria, and salmonella, and even shows a reduction of these microbes over a 24-hour period.
Wider Temperature Range
These conduits now offer a wider temperature range, from -30°C through 105°C. These temperatures are critical considerations when installing near heat-producing food equipment, or with consistently hot washdowns.
Liquatite® Benefits
Types LAFG and LSSFG Liquatite® conduit are both Certified Components for NSF/ANSI 169 special purpose food equipment. These Types also meet FDA CFR21 and NSF 51/61 requirements, offer a smooth exterior for easy washdown, and are resistant to sodium hypochlorite (bleach).
