Chemical compatibility
must have prime consideration for pump selection.
However, consideration must be given to pump
selections when the liquid is abrasive, viscous,
high temperature or has a specific gravity
greater than 1.1. Please remember that in any
given application, many factors such as concentration,
agitation, pressure, time and temperature influence
chemical resistance.
The data presented herein is based on information furnished by manufacturers.
It should be used as a guide only and may be considered as a basis for
recommendation, but not as a guarantee of performance. We assume no liability
for the data accuracy or inaccuracy, completeness or incompleteness.
Final determination of the suitability of any information or material for
the use intended, or the manner of use, is the sole responsibility of the
user. Whenever possible STANDARD recommends that the user test the desired
product under actual working conditions to determine suitability.
