Descripción general
Designed for Tethered Flight
Conventional high-pressure hoses are reinforced with steel wire or bulky textile braid[cite: 3]. They are too heavy for drone flight — suspended hose weight quickly consumes the payload budget[cite: 3]. SkyHose 10 uses high-tensile aramid fibre, giving a full 190 bar working pressure at a fraction of the weight, and stainless steel quick-connects for rapid deployment.
01
Alimentar
Ground pump connects via male quick-connect. Stainless steel construction ensures pure-water compatibility.
02
Fly
Ultra-light aramid braid and polyurethane sheath minimise suspended load as the drone ascends.[cite: 3]
03
Wash
Female quick-connect locks directly into the drone spray lance. 190 bar delivered at the nozzle.
Ventajas
Why Aramid Makes Sense on a Drone
Lightweight
At 102 g/m bare, a 50 m line adds under 5.2 kg of dry mass — preserving flight time and payload headroom.
High Pressure
190 bar (2,750 psi) continuous working pressure handles tough façade deposits and long vertical runs.
Safety Factor
760 bar (11,020 psi) burst pressure gives a 4:1 safety ratio, compliant with industrial pressure standards.
Stainless Fittings
Pre-crimped stainless steel couplings at both ends. No corrosion, no rust staining on clean glass or stone.
Kink Resistant
Aramid structure resists collapsing or kinking under dynamic flight movements and ground-reel payout.[cite: 3]
Pre-Assembled
Arrives crimped, tested, and ready to fly. No field assembly or specialist crimping tools required.[cite: 3]

Notas quirúrgicas y cuidados
Bend Radius
Never bend tighter than 125 mm (5 in). Reel drum diameter must be at least 250 mm (9.9 in) to avoid permanent core damage.
Coupling Direction
Water enters via the male quick-connect on the ground reel and exits through the female quick-connect at the drone lance.
Pre-Flight Purge
Flush and bleed all air from the line before takeoff. A water-filled line behaves predictably; air pockets create surge forces.[cite: 3]
Inspection
Check the outer sheath for cuts, kinks, or abrasion before each operation. Replace any hose with visible braid damage.[cite: 3]
Payload Calculation for SORA & Flight Planning
Total suspended load governs available flight time and aircraft selection. Calculate as follows:
Example: 50 m altitude with 1.0 kg lance = (50 × 0.173) + 1.0 = 9.65 kg total payload. Ensure this is within the aircraft’s maximum payload rating at operating altitude and temperature.

Preguntas frecuentes
Preguntas frecuentes
How much weight does the drone lift with the SkyHose 10?
Hose and water together come to 173 g per metre suspended — 102 g of hose and 71 g of water. At 30 m that is 5.2 kg (11 lb), at 50 m 8.7 kg (19 lb), at 100 m 17.3 kg (38 lb). These figures assume the full length hanging vertically and completely filled, which is the worst case; the catenary and reel support normally keep the airborne share lower. Add the lance and any drone-mounted hardware on top when sizing payload.
¿Qué diámetro debo elegir?
Larger bore means lower pressure loss over a long run, but more lifted mass. Start from the flow your ground system delivers and your aircraft’s payload capacity, then take the smallest bore that carries that flow. The three diameters share the same construction, the same fittings and the same safety factor.
¿Cuál es la presión de trabajo?
The hose is rated 190 bar (2,750 psi) working with a 760 bar (11,020 psi) burst pressure — a 4:1 safety factor. The quick-connects are rated 300 bar (4,350 psi), so the hose is the limiting component and the assembly rating is 190 bar (2,750 psi).
¿Por qué aramida en lugar de trenzado textil?
La aramida soporta una mayor carga por unidad de masa, por lo que una sola trenza alcanza la misma clase de presión con un menor peso por metro que una construcción trenzada textil equivalente. En una manguera que la aeronave debe elevar a su altura máxima de trabajo, esa diferencia se traduce directamente en tiempo de vuelo y altitud alcanzable.
¿Qué extremo se conecta al sistema de tierra?
El conector rápido macho es la entrada y se conecta al sistema de tierra; el conector rápido hembra es la salida y recibe la lanza. El agua siempre entra por un conector macho y sale por uno hembra, del mismo modo que funciona una toma de corriente. Esta convención es la misma en toda la gama WasherDrone.
¿Se pueden unir dos mangueras?
Sí. Con un conector macho en un extremo y uno hembra en el otro, se conectan directamente dos tramos. Cada unión adicional aumenta la pérdida de presión, un posible punto de fuga y la masa en el aire, por lo que conviene planificar la instalación en lugar de extenderla sobre la marcha.
¿Qué longitudes están disponibles?
30 m (98 ft) / 50 m (164 ft) / 100 m (328 ft). All three carry the same hose, the same fittings and the same pressure rating.
¿Cuál es el radio de curvatura mínimo?
125 mm (5 in). Reel drums should be at least 250 mm (9.9 in) in diameter. Coiling tighter than this damages the reinforcement permanently and is not covered by wear.
¿Es el circuito húmedo adecuado para agua purificada?
Los acoplamientos y las uniones son de acero inoxidable en todo el recorrido húmedo, por lo que el conjunto no introduce metales en el agua procedente de una etapa de ósmosis inversa.
¿Se incluye la bomba de tierra o la lanza?
No. El SkyHose es una línea de suministro. El sistema terrestre y la lanza montada en el dron son productos separados.
