Operating Temperatures
CAUTION! Operating temperature limitations are as follows:
Nitrile General purpose, oil-resistant. Shows good solvent, oil, water and hydraulic fluid resistance. Should not be used with highly polar solvents
like acetone and MEK, ozone, chlorinated hydrocarbons and nitro hydrocarbons.
EPDM Shows very good water and chemical resistance. Has poor resistance to oil and solvents, but is fair in ketones and alcohols.
NEOPRENE All purpose. Resistant to vegetable oils. Generally not affected by moderate chemicals, fats, greases and many oils and solvents. Generally
attacked by strong oxidizing acids, ketones, esters, nitro hydrocarbons and chlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons.
PTFE Chemically inert, virtually impervious. Very few chemicals are known to react chemically with PTFE: molten alkali metals, turbulent liquid or gas-
eous fluorine and a few fluoro-chemicals such as chlorine trifluoride or oxygen difluoride which readily liberate free fluorine at elevated temperatures.
FKM (Fluorocarbon) shows good resistance to a wide range of oils and solvents; especially all aliphatic, aromatic and halogenated hydrocarbons, acids,
animal and vegetable oils. Hot water or hot aqueous solutions (over 70°F) will attack FKM.
Santoprene
®
Injection molded thermoplastic elastomer with no fabric layer. Long mechanical flex life. Excellent abrasion resistance.
Polypropylene A thermoplastic polymer. Moderate tensile and flex strenght. Resists strong acids and alkalie. Attacked by chlorine, fuming nitric acid and
other strong oxidizing agents.
UHMW PE A thermoplastic polymer that is highly resistant to a broad range of chemicals. Exhibits
outstanding abrasion and impact resistance, along with environmental stress-cracking resistance.

Maximum and Minimum Temperatures are the limits for which these
materials can be operated. Temperatures coupled with pressure affect the
longevity of diaphragm pump components. Maximum life should not be
expected at the extreme limits of the temperature ranges.
