| Stainless steel pipes compliant with DIN 2462 and DIN 2463 are only used in pneumatic networks requiring the highest quality. They are also often used in the „wet“ sections of a conventional system between the compressor and the dryer.
- Maximum operating pressure 80 barop, part. higher
- Maximum operating temperature 120°C
Advantages
Stainless steel pipes are completely corrosion-proof and have only low flow resistance (low pressure loss). They are absolutely airtight if properly laid. Leakage is therefore practically zero.
Disadvantages
An experienced fitter is needed to lay seamless, stainless steel pipes because they must be welded and flanged. The pipes are very expensive and the availability of shaped parts is limited. |
