Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| Crane XLB/XLD shared chemistry list | Benzene named among the family's 8-chemical reference table, alongside Chlorine, Brine, Bromine, Sulfuric/Nitric/Hydrochloric/Phosphoric Acid, Sea Water | Crane ChemPharma & Energy — XOMOX Lined Valves |
| PFA liner material claim | Chemically inert, negligible moisture absorption, stress-cracking resistant per Crane's own PFA material-property description, shared across the lined-valve family | Crane ChemPharma & Energy — XOMOX Lined Valves |
Benzene shows up on the same shared 8-chemical table as Crane's acids and halogens, not a dedicated benzene datasheet — a real but general confirmation, worth treating as a starting point to verify with the vendor rather than a benzene-specific engineering claim.
Every material and product claim on this page traces to real, vendor-published documentation on file with LibertyCES. Chemical compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature, and duty cycle — confirm current specifications with the manufacturer and request a spec review before final specification.
