reinforced connectors
Novaf
lex
Marine Extender silicone and EPDM rubber products are
for use as
described. Products with textile reinforcement can be
used in wet e
xhaust systems and used on engine coolant systems.
It is incumbent
on the user or installer to insure the product is used
in applications tha
t do not exceed the rated working pressure or
temperature of the p
roduct.
1. When installing the E
xtender Silicon or EPDM units in wet
exhaust systems, place
the unit downstream from the water
injection point so that the m
aximum continuous temperature at
its location does not exceed t
he rating of the Expender unit.
2. Install the unit over rigid piping w
ith enough over lap to use 2
marine grade stainless steel worm
gear clamps (minimum 1/2”
wide). For additional safety 5/8” & 3/4
” clamps are
recommended.
3. Inspect all rubber & plastic products every
6 months for
serviceability. In case of an engine backfire, i
nspect the entire
exhaust system for damage, leaks or separated
connections. All
inspection information in this booklet can be applie
d to
connectors.
Molded parts have no reinforcement. It is important to strap an
d
support all parts to prevent movement and possible disconnectio
n
due to vibration. In addition it is important to insure that the weight o
f
hoses and other equipment attached to connectors do not place
forces on the connectors that will promote disconnection at the
attachment point.
