In applications ranging from chemical containers, apparatus manufacture to the electrical industry, utmost safety is required when aggressive media are handled in potentially explosive environments.
For this reason, all of our connectors Series 1 to 3 – previously only offered in PP and PVDF materials – are now available in PP-EL and PVDF-EL as well. To prevent electrostatic charge from building up, the high-performance PVDF-EL material is equipped with electrically conducting particles and has a very low surface resistance of less than <10³ Ω. The polypropylene homopolymer PP-EL also contains electrically conducting particles that dissipate the electrostatic charge and reduce the surface resistance of the material to less than <10² Ω. For media that are sensitive to UV radiation, the materials are dyed solid black to block all UV light. PVDF is also impervious to UV light. Available in new materials, our Series 1, 2 and 3 connectors ensure maximum safety and have impressive chemical resistance properties.
