Internally heated modular fluid delivery system

Abstract

A method of using a modular hose assembly is presented. The method includes positioning a first fluid module at a coupling point, The method also includes electrically coupling a first electronic element, of the first fluid module, to a second electronic element, of a second fluid module, The method also includes hydraulically coupling a first fluid conduit, of the first fluid module, to a second fluid conduit, of the second fluid module. The method also includes coupling the first fluid module to a pump assembly, and coupling the second fluid module to an applicator.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method of using a modular hose assembly, the method comprising:
 positioning a first fluid module at a coupling point;   electrically coupling a first electronic element, of the first fluid module, to a second electronic element, of a second fluid module;   hydraulically coupling a first fluid conduit, of the first fluid module, to a second fluid conduit, of the second fluid module; and   coupling the first fluid module to a pump assembly, and coupling the second fluid module to an applicator.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 2 , and further comprising:
 insulating the first and second fluid modules.   
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the first electronic element is a heating element configured to internally heat a fluid within the first fluid conduit.
