Product Overview
The KINGPO Current-Carrying Hose Crushing Tester is used to apply a specified mechanical compression load to current-carrying hoses according to IEC 60335-2-2 Clause 21.101. These hoses may contain internal conductors or powered connections for vacuum cleaner functions, so their insulation structure must remain suitable after mechanical stress.
This tester provides a standard-focused crushing setup for manufacturers, hose suppliers, safety laboratories and certification preparation teams. It helps users prepare hose samples under the required mechanical condition before the following electric strength verification.
Unlike a general-purpose compression machine, this equipment is configured around the IEC 60335-2-2 hose crushing method, including the parallel steel plate structure, specified compression speed and 1.5 kN applied force.
Technical Specifications
The main specifications are organized below to help users quickly confirm the applicable standard, test method, force requirement and equipment configuration.
IEC 60335-2-2 Clause 21.101 Reference
IEC 60335-2-2 covers safety requirements for electric vacuum cleaners and water-suction cleaning appliances for household and similar use. It also applies to current-carrying hoses associated with a particular vacuum cleaner.
This tester is designed for the mechanical crushing part of the test. The electric strength verification after crushing should be performed with separate electrical safety test equipment.
Testing Principle
Position the current-carrying hose between two parallel steel plates.
Keep the hose axis at right angles to the longer sides of the plates.
Compress the hose at 50 mm/min ± 5 mm/min until the force reaches 1.5 kN.
After force release, proceed with electric strength verification using separate equipment.
Difference from Related IEC 60335-2-2 Hose Test Equipment
Current-carrying hose testing may involve different mechanical and electrical test methods. This product should be selected according to the required clause and test purpose.
Design and Operation Features
Configured for the current-carrying hose crushing test required by IEC 60335-2-2 Clause 21.101.
The hose is compressed between two parallel steel plates to support repeatable standard-based testing.
Applies the required crushing force for evaluating hose resistance to mechanical compression.
Supports compression at 50 mm/min ± 5 mm/min according to the test method.
Suitable for routine laboratory use and standard-oriented mechanical test operation.
Provides stable mechanical support for repeated hose compression testing.
Typical Applications and Buyer’s Selection Notes
- Vacuum cleaner current-carrying hose testing
- Water-suction cleaning appliance hose testing
- Hose supplier sample validation
- Appliance manufacturer pre-compliance checks
- Safety laboratory testing
- Certification preparation before formal submission
- Incoming component inspection for hose assemblies
- Confirm IEC 60335-2-2 Clause 21.101 or the applicable internal laboratory procedure.
- Confirm whether the sample is a current-carrying hose.
- Provide hose diameter, length and conductor arrangement if available.
- Prepare separate electrical safety test equipment if electric strength testing is required after crushing.
- Confirm local power supply and documentation requirements before ordering.
Typical Operation Workflow
- Confirm the applicable IEC 60335-2-2 edition and Clause 21.101 requirement.
- Prepare the current-carrying hose sample according to the laboratory procedure.
- Position the hose between the two parallel steel plates.
- Make sure the hose axis is at right angles to the longer sides of the plates.
- Start the compression process through button operation.
- Compress the hose at 50 mm/min ± 5 mm/min until the applied force reaches 1.5 kN.
- Release the force after the required condition is reached.
- Remove the hose sample and proceed with electric strength verification using separate equipment.
- Record the test condition, sample condition and any abnormal observation.
