By further enhancing its range of
compression fittings, Flexicon claims
to have launched the most liquid
tight conduit system in the UK. It
has an IP rating of IP69k.

The compression fittings are
suitable for the company’s LTP
galvanised steel plastic coated liquid
tight range and also for its LPC
smooth spiral reinforced PVC
system.

An IP69k rating allows equipment
to be steam cleaned by a high
pressure, high temperature jet wash. It
is suitable for equipment that needs
regular intensive cleaning, such as in
food processing. The IP69k rating
extends the BS EN 60529 rating
system to a new standard DIN 40050.

The fittings include a multipart
compression fitting with a nylon seal,
which can be used for knockout or
threaded entries as it rotates until
tightened.
