Examples: Aeroquip- AQP™, Parker-PKR®, and Gates-GTS (CPE)™. The three main specifications that are crucial with hose selection are; 1. The inner liner needs to be AQP, PKR, GTS (CPE), or equivalent. If incorrect liner is used, this will lead to an internal hose failure. This failure will cause plugging up the oil filter, restricting oil flow, and lead to compressor failure. 2. Temperature rating needs to be -40°C to 150°C (-40°F to 302°F) or greater 3. Pressure rating must be a minimum of 300 psi operating (working) pressure This document contains a list of recommended hoses for VMAC systems. If alternate hoses without proper liners are used, the hose will fail internally which can lead to compressor failure. Before placing an order • Each table of hose choices (page 2) begins with the preferred product used in VMAC factory production. These VMAC preferred hoses may also be available to order through your local vendor using the manufacturer’s part number. • To order hose from VMAC, you can; o Find the necessary part number by looking it up online in our Illustrated Parts List at http://www.vmacair.com/support/ipl/ . o Contact VMAC sales at 1(888) 514-6656 or sales@vmacair.com . Supply your VMAC product’s System ID number and an accurate description of the hose(s) you need. • If you choose to source one of the other listed hoses through a local vendor rather than ordering from VMAC, ensure the hose you are ordering is suitable for the location and environment it is being used in. • To assist your local vendor in matching hoses produced by VMAC; o For ease of installation VMAC hoses will always have either straight fittings at both ends, or one straight and one angled fitting (never two angled fittings) o Hose lengths indicated in our Illustrated Parts Lists are measured as shown in Figure 1 below.Technical Support Subject Required VMAC Hoses Document Version Department Revision Details Revised by Tech Engineering Implemented EXT-ALL-010 D Tech Update RB 24 Jun 2019 BDJ 28 Jun 2019 N/A 28 Jun 2019 Page 2 of 4 Knowledge Base: www.kb.vmacair.com Email: tech@vmacair.com Web: www.vmacair.com Technical Support: 1(888)241-2289 Toll Free:1(800)738-8622 Fax: 1(877)740-3202 Figure 1 Hose Tables Hose Size Manufacturer Part Number Covering Type Min Bend radius Liner/Tube Type #4 (1/4”) Aeroquip FC699 AQP-04 Black Textile Braid Cloth 1.25” AQP Aeroquip FC300 AQP-04 Blue Polyester Braid 3.00” AQP Aeroquip FC350 AQP-04 Black Polyester Braid 0.75” AQP Aeroquip FC498 AQP-04 Blue AQP Elastomer 2.50” AQP Dayco GL04 Black Textile Braid 3.00” Chlorinated Polyethylene (PE-C) Gates 76993 Black Textile Braid/Synthetic Rubber 5.00” GTS (CPE) Parker 206-4 Blue Fiber Braid 3.00” PKR Parker 426-4 Synthetic Rubber 4.00” PKR Hose Size Manufacturer Part Number Covering Type Min Bend radius Liner/Tube Type #6 (3/8”) Aeroquip FC699 AQP -6 Black Textile Braid Cloth 1.50" AQP Aeroquip FC300 AQP-06 Blue Polyester Braid 4.00" AQP Aeroquip FC350 AQP-06 Black Polyester Braid 1.25" AQP Aeroquip FC498 AQP-06 Blue AQP Elastomer 3.00" AQP Dayco GL06 Black Textile Braid 4.00” Chlorinated Polyethylene (PE-C) Gates 76994 Black Textile Braid/Synthetic Rubber 5.00” GTS (CPE) Parker 206 - 6 Blue Fiber Braid 3.50" PKR Parker 426 - 6 Synthetic Rubber Cover 5.00" PKRTechnical Support Subject Required VMAC Hoses Document Version Department Revision Details Revised by Tech Engineering Implemented EXT-ALL-010 D Tech Update RB 24 Jun 2019 BDJ 28 Jun 2019 N/A 28 Jun 2019 Page 3 of 4 Knowledge Base: www.kb.vmacair.com Email: tech@vmacair.com Web: www.vmacair.com Technical Support: 1(888)241-2289 Toll Free:1(800)738-8622 Fax: 1(877)740-3202 Hose Size Manufacturer Part Number Covering Type Min Bend radius Liner/Tube Type #8 (1/2”) Aeroquip FC699 AQP -8 Black Textile Braid Cloth 2.00" AQP Aeroquip FC300 AQP-08 Blue Polyester Braid 4.62" AQP Aeroquip FC350 AQP-08 Black Polyester Braid 1.75" AQP Aeroquip FC498AQP-08 Blue AQP Elastomer 4.00" AQP Dayco GL08 Black Textile Braid 4.60" Chlorinated Polyethylene (PE-C) Gates 76995 Black Textile Braid/Synthetic Rubber 5.00” GTS (CPE) Parker 206 - 8 Blue Fiber Braid 3.50" PKR Parker 426 - 8 Synthetic Rubber cover 7.00" PKR Hose Size Manufacturer Part Number Covering Type Min Bend radius Liner/Tube Type #12 (3/4”) Aeroquip FC699 AQP-12 Black Textile Braid Cloth 4.00" AQP Aeroquip FC300 AQP-12 Blue Polyester Braid 6.50" AQP Aeroquip FC350 AQP-12 Black Polyester Braid 2.75" AQP Aeroquip FC498 AQP-12 Blue AQP Elastomer 6.00" AQP Dayco GL12 Black Textile Braid 6.50" Chlorinated Polyethylene (PE-C) Gates 76996 Black Textile Braid/Synthetic Rubber 6.00” GTS (CPE) Parker 206 - 12 Blue Fiber Braid 4.00" PKR Parker 426 - 12 Synthetic Rubber Cover 9.50" PKR Hose Size Manufacturer Part Number Covering Type Min Bend radius Liner/Tube Type #16 (1.0”) Aeroquip GH194 - 16 Blue AQP Elastomer 12.00" AQP Aeroquip GH663 - 16 Dura Tuff Synthetic Rubber 6.00" AQP Dayco GL16 Black Textile Braid 7.4” Chlorinated Polyethylene (PE-C) Parker 206 - 16 Blue Fiber Braid 4.00" PKR Parker 426 - 16 Synthetic Rubber Cover 12.00" PKR VMAC PTFE Tube InformationTechnical Support Subject Required VMAC Hoses Document Version Department Revision Details Revised by Tech Engineering Implemented EXT-ALL-010 D Tech Update RB 24 Jun 2019 BDJ 28 Jun 2019 N/A 28 Jun 2019 Page 4 of 4 Knowledge Base: www.kb.vmacair.com Email: tech@vmacair.com Web: www.vmacair.com Technical Support: 1(888)241-2289 Toll Free:1(800)738-8622 Fax: 1(877)740-3202 The 3/16” (VMAC part # 1700571) and ¼” (VMAC part # 1700570) PTFE poly tubes are made specifically for VMAC to match DOT specifications (.040” wall thickness for ¼” tube) and (.030” wall thickness for 3/16” tube). They are an exact fit for the DOT push to connect fitting. If the wall thickness is thinner, the connection can possibly leak at the fitting as the tube collapses and no longer contacts the seal in the fitting. If the wall thickness is thicker, compatibility with the inner tube support inside the fitting is compromised and will not insert properly into the fitting. Air brake tubing will work temporarily but it does not hold up long term as its not rated for the temperature range required. When routing hoses, ensure cap plugs are installed so that contaminants do not get into the line. Take care when routing hoses, as a hose failure may damage the compressor and/or cause injury. All hoses, tubes and wires that are installed, rerouted or shifted during the installation must be secured so that they do not contact any hot, sharp or moving parts. Use rubber coated Pclips wherever possible. Follow the routing suggestions in this manual and cover all hoses with plastic loom.  Lubricate the tube and firmly push it into the fitting so that the tube fully seats in the fitting.  Slide the collet out, away from the body of the fitting to lock the tubing in place.  Ensure the tube does not have any “play” to prevent the O-ring from wearing. Figure 2 If you have any questions, please contact VMAC Technical Support at 1-888-241-2289 or email tech@vmacair.com Cut the tube squarely using tubing cutters. Do not use side cutters as they will deform the tube Slide the collet out once the tube is fully inserted White outline for high contrast
