Halogens' Characteristics
Liquid or gas Chlorine (Cl2), Fluorine (F2), Hydrogen Chloride (A-HCl), Phosgene (COCl2), hydrofluoric acid (A-HF), and chloro-fluorinated compounds all display similar hazards:
- Lethal: Emissions are not tolerated - ZERO leakage allowed.
- Corrosive: Presence of scale and deposits challenges reliability and performance of equipment.
- Liquefied Gas under pressure: Changes from liquid to gas state induces flashing, cavitation and thermal shocks in the valve.
- Hygroscopic: Media highly reactive with moisture and humidity triggers the spread of corrosion.
- Other critical and hazardous applications:
Pyrophoric / Explosive / Noxious / Erosive / Abrasive / High Pressure
