Footnotes for Fluid Compatibility Guides:
(1) The Fluid Compatibility Guides are simplified rating tabulations based on immersion tests at 75°F. Higher
temperatures tend to reduce ratings. Since final selection depends on pressure, fluid and ambient temperature and other factors not known to Parker Hannifin Co., no
performance guarantee is expressed or implied. Ratings do not imply compliance with specialized codes such as FDA, NSF, AGA or UL and do not cover possible fluid dis-
coloration, taste or odor effects. For conveying foodstuffs use FDA sanctioned materials, and for potable water use NSF listed materials. For chemicals not listed, or for
advice on particular applications, please consult Product Engineering, Parflex Div., Ravenna, Ohio. (2) Hose applications for these fluids must take into account legal and
insurance regulations. This does not imply AGA or UL compliance. (3) Satisfactory at some concentrations and temperatures, unsatisfactory in others. (4) For high pres-
sure gases, the cover should be pinpricked and the pressure must not be released quickly. Chain or restrain the hose to prevent personal injury in the event of damage or
failure. (5) Chemical compatibility does not imply low permeation rates. Consult the Parker factory for a recommendation for your specific requirement. (6) Does not imply
NSF or FDA compliance. (7) Chemical compatibility does not imply acceptability for use in airless paint spray applications. These applications require a special conductive
hose. (8) Teflon is chemically compatible with Anhydrous Ammonia. However, extreme caution must be used in dealing with Anhydrous Ammonia since it can cause severe
injuries such as blindness and/or chemical burns.
