These assembly instructions
are intended for qualified fit-
ters of pneumatic systems in
commercial vehicles.
1. Introduction
Nylon tube lines are in general
use today in pneumatic brak-
ing systems in commercial
vehicles. Nylon tubes are in-
sensitive to corrosion, vibrati-
on and torsional stress in
vehicle bodywork.
The following factors are
essential for their functional
reliability:
- Correct material and proper
handling
- Appropriate connection fit-
tings
- Correct assembly
As a connecting element
between nylon tubing and
components, the VOSS quick
connect system 232 permits
rapid and safe connection.
2. Nylon tubing
The properties of nylon tubing
and details of its use in com-
mercial vehicles are defined in
the following standards:
DIN 73 378
Polyamide tubing for motor
vehicles
DIN 74 324, Part 1
Air braking systems - thermo-
plastic tubing; part 1: require-
ments and tests
DIN 74 324, Part 2
Air braking systems - thermo-
plastic tubing; part 2: guide
for assembling
Only nylon tubing which con-
forms to DIN 74324 part 1
and made of polyamide 11 or
polyamide 12 may be used.
