Plate PSU PSU® 1000

solid rodwear-resistantchemical-resistant

PSU 1000® is a translucent, slightly yellow amorphous thermoplastic material (non-optical quality), which offers a combination of excellent mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. It often replaces polycarbonate where higher temperature resistance, better chemical resistance or autoclavability are required. MAIN CHARACTERISTICS - High maximum allowable service temperature in air [150 °C continuously] - Good hydrolysis resistance [suitable for repeated steam sterilisation] - High strength and stiffness over a wide temperature range - Good dimensional stability - Physiologically inert [suitable for food contact] - Very good resistance against high energy radiation [gamma- and X-rays] - Good electrical insulating and dielectric properties Applications - Commonly used in food processing equipment [milk machines, pumps, valves, filtration plates, heat exchangers] - All kinds of components which are subjected to repeated cleaning and sterilisation
