Chemical Compatibility Chart

RATINGS - CHEMICAL BEHAVIOR "A" - CHEMICALLY COMPATIBLE "B"- MINOR EFFECT BLANK MEANS NO DATA "X" DO NOT USE

AUGUST 2006

Use only "A" rated material/fluid combinations

DANGER

WARNING The information in this chart has been supplied by reputable sources and is to be used ONLY as a guide in selecting equipment for appropriate compatibility. Before permanent installation test the equipment with the chemicals and under the specific conditions of your application. Ratings of chemical behavior listed in this chart apply to a 48-hr exposed period. There is no knowledge of possible effects beyond this period. This does not warrant (neither express nor implied) that the information in this chart is accurate or complete or that any material is suitable for any purpose.

Footnotes: 1. Safe to 72 deg F (22 deg.C) 2. Safe to 120 deg F (48 deg.C)
