This document discusses requirements for flexible hydraulic connections used in elevators, dumbwaiters, escalators, and moving walks. It specifies that flexible hose and fitting assemblies may be used for hydraulic connections if they meet certain criteria, such as having a bursting strength of at least 10 times the working pressure and being permanently marked with the replacement date, which must be no more than 6 years beyond installation. It also outlines relief valve requirements, stating that each pump must be equipped with a relief valve preset to open at no greater than 125% of working pressure and sized to discharge the pump's maximum rated capacity without excessive pressure increase.
