A tube comprising a first channel and a second channel wherein each of said first and second channels extends along the longitudinal axis of said tube, and wherein said tube is constituted by a first heat-sealable polymeric film A and a second heat-sealable polymeric film B. Said polymeric films A and B each have a first surface (A1, B1) and a second heat-sealable surface (A2, B2) respectively. Polymeric films A and B are disposed such that said heat-sealable surfaces A2 and B2 are in contact with and adhered to each other by heat-seal bonds which do not extend across the full surface area of said heat-sealable surfaces A2 and B2. Also described are methods of making the tube, a kit comprising a plurality of polymeric films for forming the tube, and methods for using the tube in the delivery of injectable chemicals.

A tubing assembly is provided that can comprise a plurality of tubes or lumens that can be disposed within a head of a peristaltic pump. The tubing assembly can provide a flow rate or volume capacity that is generally equal to or greater than that achieved with a comparable prior art tube while operating at higher pressures than that possible using the prior art tube. Further, in accordance with some embodiments, the tubing assembly can achieve a longer working life than a comparable prior art tube, and the load on the pump motor can be reduced such that the pump life is increased and/or a larger pump motor is not required to achieve such advantageous results.

A hose is disclosed for conveying fluids. The hose has a wall defining a fluid carrying tube and a power and/or data transmission cable is integrated into said wall. Also disclosed is a user definable module that is removably attachable to the distal end of a fluid conveying hose. The hose being releasably connectable to a fluid receiving entity to provide fluid to said entity. The fluid conveying hose has a wall defining a fluid carrying tube and a power and/or data transmission cable integrated into that wall. The user definable module is connectable to the cable and has components to measure at least one measurable parameter at the end of the hose and/or provide electrical connection between the cable and said fluid receiving entity for the transmission of data and/or power along the hose via said user definable interface. Also disclosed is a method of configuring a hose for fluid transfer. The method includes the step of selecting a user definable module and attaching the selected module to a distal end of the hose prior to connecting said hose to a fluid receiving entity.

A method of fabricating a conduit comprises steps of attaching a first first-tubular-outboard-ply-end of a first tubular outboard ply to a first inner collar portion of a first collar with a second weld and attaching a second first-tubular-outboard-ply end of the first tubular outboard ply to a second inner collar portion of a second collar with a fourth weld. The method also comprises steps of inserting a second tubular outboard ply into the first tubular outboard ply and inserting a tubular inboard ply into the second tubular outboard ply, so that the second tubular outboard ply is interposed between the tubular inboard ply and the first tubular outboard ply. The method further comprises steps of threadably interconnecting the first inner collar portion and a first outer collar portion of the first collar and threadably interconnecting the second inner collar portion and a second outer collar portion of the second collar.
