Chemical Compatibility

Georg Fischer Signet products are manufactured in a variety of
wetted materials to suit various liquids and chemicals.
All plastic materials including typical piping types (PVC) are more
or less permeable to contained media, such as water or volatile
substances, including some acids. This effect is not related to
porosity, but purely a matter of gas diffusion through the plastic.
If the plastic material is compatible with the medium according
to the application guidelines, the permeation will not damage
the plastic itself. However, if the plastic encloses other sensitive
components, as is the case with GF Signet FlowtraMag meter,
these may be affected or damaged by the media diffusing
through the plastic body.
Unit is factory shipped configured to measure water.
