Selection of electromagnetic flowmeter lining

Lining materialMain performanceScope of application
Neoprene CR1. It has the best elasticity, high breaking force and good wear resistance.
2. It is resistant to corrosion by low-concentration acid, alkali and salt, but not resistant
to corrosion .
1. <60℃
2. Tap water, industrial water, sea water, sewage,
mud, ore slurry.
3. Diameter range: DN40-2400
Polyurethane rubber PU1. The best corrosion resistance (equivalent to ten times that of natural rubber).
2. Poor acid and alkali resistance.
1. <40℃
2. Neutral and strong abrasive ore slurry, coal slurry, mud.
3. Diameter range: DN15-600
Polytetrafluoroethylene F41. The performance is very stable, and it
can concentrated alkali and various organic solvents. It is not resistant
to corrosion by chlorine trifluoride, high-temperature trifluorooxyfluoride, high-flow liquid oxygen, and ozone.
2. Poor wear resistance and bonding performance.
1. <150℃
2. Strong corrosive media such as acid, alkali, salt, etc.
3. Diameter range: DN15-1000
FEP F46This material has the corrosion resistance of polytetrafluoroethylene and
the unique strong adhesion to metal, and has the best negative pressure resistance.
1. <100℃
2. Strong corrosive media such as acid, alkali, salt, etc.
3. Diameter range: DN15-350
