All 316L wetted material for optimal compatibility
No oil-filled cavities leave no chance of containment
Non-welded diaphragm eliminates leak paths and weak points
Digitally compensated
Krystal Bond™ Technology
Applications
PEM Fuel Cells l Hydrogen Storage
Hydrogen Filling Stations l Test Stands
Back Up Power
