Elastomer Working temperature
The temperature range is determined by the base elastomer used. This chart depicts the maximum temperature range for each elastomer. The temperature range for a specific compound may not reach these maximum limits. Higher temperatures may be considered if exposure is short or intermittent. Please consider your diaphragm will in right temperature.
