Safety Precautions
The ST-H transducer body is a two part design molded in PVDF or ETFE with internal parts potted
in epoxy. The joint between the upper and lower sections is not a hermetic seal. The structural
integrity of the transducer will be compromised if the joint is exposed to an environment that
attacks epoxy. As a result, the top section will separate from the main body of the transducer.
For environments that are compatible with PVDF or ETFE but may degrade epoxy, the transducer
must be mounted through a flange or stub mount using the 2" thread on the lower section of the
transducer. The joint between upper and lower sections of the transducer must be isolated from
the corrosive environment.
