Medical Gas Hoses


Medical Gas Hoses for Safe and Standardized Gas Transfer

Medical Gas Hoses are essential components for the safe and efficient transmission of various medical gases within hospital environments. These hoses connect equipment to gas outlets and are designed to handle oxygen, vacuum, nitrous oxide, air, and other commonly used medical gases.

Manufactured using thermoplastic materials, Tecnomed’s Medical Gas Hoses offer flexibility, durability, and compliance with international color-coding standards.


Construction and Material

Each hose is made of high-quality thermoplastic material that ensures strength and resistance to wear. Thermoplastics are ideal for medical use due to their lightweight properties, smooth internal surface, and ability to maintain shape under continuous use.

This structure ensures long service life and resistance to internal pressure, physical stress, and repeated disinfection processes.


Color Coding and Standardization

Tecnomed Medical Gas Hoses follow the EN 739 standard for gas-specific color coding. This ensures each hose is easily identifiable based on the gas it carries, minimizing the risk of incorrect connections.

Typical color coding includes:

  • White for oxygen

  • Blue for nitrous oxide

  • Black for vacuum

  • Yellow for medical air

  • Grey for carbon dioxide

The standardized color system promotes safe use in high-pressure environments like operating rooms, intensive care units, and emergency wards.


Pressure Handling

These hoses are suitable for pressures up to ten bar, which makes them compatible with most medical gas supply systems in hospitals and clinics.

They provide a secure channel between wall-mounted outlets and medical devices, ensuring that the gas reaches the patient or equipment with stable pressure and flow.


Flexibility and Application

Thanks to the thermoplastic composition, the Medical Gas Hoses are:

  • Easy to bend and route around equipment

  • Resistant to kinks and deformation

  • Compatible with wall outlets, ceiling pendants, and bed head units

  • Available in various lengths and connector types

This makes them highly adaptable for different clinical setups, from mobile carts to fixed installations.


Benefits in Clinical Use

  • Provides reliable medical gas transfer

  • Designed with standard color coding for gas identification

  • Made of thermoplastic for lightness and strength

  • Withstands pressure up to ten bar

  • Easily integrated into existing hospital gas systems

  • Reduces installation and replacement time

  • Minimizes gas leakage and contamination risk


Maintenance and Safety

The smooth inner surface of the hose prevents residue buildup, ensuring clean gas delivery at all times. Periodic visual inspection and proper disinfection procedures help maintain hose integrity.

The color coding also assists in fast troubleshooting and system management by hospital technicians.
