Note1: The above Kynar® PVDF component temperature, pressure and sizing data are compiled from industry data and are for illustrative purposes only. The actual temperature and pressure ratings of your system, as well as its resistance to chemical attack, are dependent on many environmental factors. Higher operating temperatures will reduce the Kynar® PVDF system's maximum operating pressure; higher operating pressures will reduce the system's maximum operating temperature. Higher operating pressures or temperatures may also require increased component wall thickness. Consult your Kynar® PVDF component supplier about your system's operating parameters before purchasing a Kynar® PVDF system.
Note 2: Kynar® PVDF componetns can withstand continuous temperatures as low as -30°C (-22°F) under certain conditions. Please contact your Kynar® PVDF component supplier with specific information about your application to determine the lowest recommended operating temperature of your Kynar® PVDF system.
