Food Grade Flexible Liquatite® Conduit
Liquatite® Food-grade electrical conduits provide a flexible, liquidtight protective wiring raceway, ideally suited for Food Processing, Pharmaceutical, Bottling Equipment, Healthcare, and Clean Room installations. Electri-Flex offers four food grade electrical conduits: LAFG, LSSFG, NMFG, and now LNMP-Food Grade.
Types LAFG and LSSFG are jacketed metallic varieties of flexible electrical conduit, while Types NMFG and LNMP are nonmetallic varieties.
LAFG, LNMP-Food Grade, and LSSFG
Antimicrobial, Blue Jacketing and Wide Temperature Range
The electric conduit types LAFG, LNMP-food grade, and LSSFG have improved antimicrobial PVC jacketing, with the additional benefits of the food-processing blue jacketing color and wider temperature range.
Antimicrobial: Types LAFG, LNMP-Food Grade and LSSFG electric conduit are antimicrobial, while NMFG does not promote bacteria growth. The benefit of antimicrobial means the jacketing contains a biocide additive that inhibits the growth of commonly known food processing microbes, such as E. coli, Listeria and salmonella, and even shows a reduction of these microbes over a 24-hour period.
Blue Jacketing Benefits:
Food Processing Blue electrical conduit is rapidly becoming used in food processing installations due to its increased safety features. The blue color is not found naturally in food products and can, therefore, be spotted quickly in fast-moving machinery in the rare event fragments break off and get into the product stream.
Wider Temperature Range:
LAFG, LNMP-Food Grade and LSSFG electric conduit offer a wider temperature range, ranging from -37°C to 105°C. These temperatures are critical considerations when installing near freezers, heat-producing food equipment, or with consistently hot washdowns. Please see individual product pages for full working temperatures.
