LP
(propane) hose assemblies and aircraft hose assemblies are produced in
our large diameter hose cell (LDHC). Both of these hoses require strict
adherence to stringent coupling, testing, and record keeping
procedures.
The hoses
are cut to the length required and coupled to manufacturers
specification.
After the
coupling procedure the hose are pressure tested to the specification
required by the regulatory body responsible (UL, DOT, or API).
After a
successful test the coupling is engraved with a serial number. This
number is kept on file at IRPCO along with the customer identification
and date information.
All of
this information is transferred to the certification document which is
packaged with the hose itself. A copy of the certification document is
also sent with the invoice and another copy is retained in the IRPCO
files. This information is also stored electronically in the IRPCO
system. Redundancy here insures that the certification information is
available if needed.
