FlexCore Documentation

Documentation

Complete technical documentation for our industrial hoses — from chemical resistance and ATEX compliance to installation and material data. Manufacturer documentation issued by NORRES BAGGERMAN, distributed and advised by Particulair.

Why the documentation matters

An industrial hose rarely sits in isolation. It is part of a process — often in an environment where failure is not an option, and where any replacement must be documentable. ATEX zones, food production, chemical plants and the pharmaceutical industry all impose requirements on which hose may sit where, and on whether the material can withstand the medium running through it.

This is the documentation you find here. It is test reports, certificates and declarations of conformity from NORRES BAGGERMAN itself — the formal basis you need when an auditor, a safety coordinator or a QA officer asks. With Particulair you get more than the PDF files: we read them with you, translate them into your specific application, and help you choose the hose that both meets the documentation requirement and works in the process where it sits.


The manufacturer — NORRES BAGGERMAN

The hoses in FlexCore are produced by NORRES BAGGERMAN in Gelsenkirchen, Germany — one of the world's leading manufacturers of industrial hose systems with more than 135 years of experience, ISO 9001:2015-certified by TÜV Rheinland, and with testing capacity covering everything from chemical resistance to ATEX zone classification. Particulair is the distributor for NORRES BAGGERMAN in Scandinavia and provides the local advisory, custom configuration and installation support that makes the manufacturer's documentation usable in practice.

Compliance and certificates

Technical data sheets

Installation and assembly

Need help choosing the right hose?

The documentation answers »can this hose handle this?« — but not necessarily »which hose is the right one?«. The match between your specific process — the chemical, the temperature, an ATEX zone if applicable, the run lengths, the wear exposure — and a particular hose is what we do every day.

If you have a specification that doesn't quite fit a standard hose, or a compliance file that's missing a final line, then get in touch. We read the documentation alongside your requirements and come back with a concrete proposal — hose, dimension, cut-to-length, any couplings and the documentation. That is the local advisory Particulair provides on top of the manufacturer's data sheets.

Frequently asked questions

Who issues the documentation?

All documents on this page are manufacturer documentation issued by NORRES BAGGERMAN in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. Particulair is the distributor in Scandinavia and provides the local advisory along with the documents.

How often is the documentation updated?

The REACH declaration is updated whenever the European SVHC candidate list is updated (typically twice a year). The RoHS declaration is updated when the directive changes. The ISO 9001 certificate is renewed every three years following a recertification audit. Technical data sheets are updated whenever NORRES BAGGERMAN modifies a formulation or process.

Can I get a compliance declaration addressed to my company?

Yes. NORRES BAGGERMAN can issue REACH and RoHS declarations with your company address and contact reference inside the document. Get in touch with your order details.

Where do I find material properties for a specific hose?

Material properties for the 11 main materials (PUR, PVC, PTFE, EPDM, silicone etc.) are on the Technical data and materials page. For a specific hose type, refer to its factsheet or contact us for a concrete material match.

What if my chemical isn't in the resistance table?

The resistance table covers over 1,400 media, but not all mixtures and specialty products. Contact us with the product name, concentration, operating temperature and contact time — we find a match either in NORRES BAGGERMAN's application database or through a laboratory test.

Do I need ATEX or TRGS documentation?

If your process is in an explosive atmosphere within the EU, ATEX 2014/34/EU applies. TRGS 727 is the German technical rule that specifies resistance limits for hoses. NORRES BAGGERMAN's test report covers both — in practice it's the same documentation.

Are all NORRES BAGGERMAN hoses REACH-compliant?

Yes, all NORRES BAGGERMAN hoses comply with the REACH regulation. Specific products — primarily brass couplings and stainless steel hose clamps — contain over 0.1 % of declared SVHC substances (lead, nickel, triphenylphenol). This is detailed in the REACH declaration.
