1.8 Sealing material compatibility
EL-PRESS™ instruments are fitted from factory with internal seals compatible with the gas type(s) as specified at ordering
time. Before using other media, always check their compatibility with the applied sealing materials. Check the model key on
the serial number label to see which sealing materials have been incorporated in your specific instrument. When in doubt,
do not hesitate to contact your Bronkhorst representative for more information.

·
Always make sure that the used process gases or mixtures thereof are compatible with the sealing materials the
instrument is equipped with.
·
Do not exceed the specified maximum operating pressure and temperature. Using the instrument outside the specified
operating limits might lead to serious damage and dangerous situations.
·
The gas(es) used in the fluid system in which the instrument is mounted should be clean and dry.
