Is the Polypropylene Straight Connector with BSP Female Thread, 3F Series suitable for use with aggressive chemicals at 10 bar operating pressure?

Yes. The Polypropylene Straight Connector with BSP Female Thread, 3F Series is suitable for use with aggressive chemicals at an operating pressure of 10 bar, provided the chemicals are compatible with polypropylene or PVDF. The 3F series is manufactured from durable polypropylene or PVDF offering excellent chemical resistance and is rated for working pressures up to 10 bar, ensuring secure, leak-free connections under intensive conditions. For safety, verify specific chemical compatibility (concentration, temperature, and exposure time) with polypropylene or PVDF before use; for chemicals incompatible with these materials, select a different material.

Can the Polypropylene Straight Connector with BSP Female Thread, 3F Series be sterilized repeatedly without degrading its pressure rating or chemical resistance?

Yes. The Polypropylene Straight Connector with BSP Female Thread, 3F Series can be sterilized repeatedly without degrading its pressure rating or chemical resistance, provided sterilization conditions are within polypropylene (or PVDF, if applicable) material limits. The product description notes durable polypropylene/PVDF construction and a working pressure up to 10 bar, and highlights excellent chemical resistance and long-lasting strength—properties that support repeated sterilization in professional environments (laboratories, medical, pharmaceutical, food). To ensure no degradation: use sterilization methods compatible with polypropylene (avoid temperatures or aggressive oxidative treatments beyond the polymer’s thermal/chemical tolerance), and confirm specific sterilization parameters (temperature, duration, chemicals, number of cycles) with the manufacturer’s technical data sheet. Under appropriate, manufacturer-recommended sterilization conditions, the connector should maintain its pressure rating and chemical resistance.
