Measures were considered for reducing the hose replacement rate and preventing foreign matter intrusion due to fluid remaining within the hose.

Reduced coloration of the hose inner layer for improved work efficiency
A TOYOFUSSO Soft-S-50φ hose was used for monitoring. With high transparency, the interior was found to be easily visible so that dirt was easily confirmed; the hose could also be used in good condition without coloration. Switching on other lines is also being considered.
