The word “Flex” appears in the diagram; does it refer to an expansion joint?
It should be a metal hose; EXP is the expansion joint
Reply to 2# CYKWS: Check the member companies of EJMA; it might be the names of the manufacturers.
hose: flexible tube; flex: bellows
Flex is short for Fle*ble Hose – a metal hose with flanges at both ends; Expansion Joint – a device used to allow for expansion
Flex is the abbreviation for Fle*ble. What it specifically refers to depends on the noun that modifies it; it could be Fle*ble Hose, Fle*ble Joint, Fle*ble bellows, or other things related to \"fle*ble\". There are various types of expansion joints, one of which is the Flex Bellows. Take a look to see if it’s this type of expansion joint in your picture.
It should be translated as a flexible connection; this can be either a bellows or an expansion joint, with the translation adjusted accordingly to the specific context
