Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| FE0 named organic chemistries | Methanol, EDC, VCM, Butadiene, Ethylene Oxide, Ethylene Glycol explicitly named | Crane ChemPharma & Energy — XOMOX Tufline/Tuflin Sleeved Plug Valves |
| SR named application | Aromatics, Benzene/Toluene derivatives explicitly named as an application | Crane ChemPharma & Energy — XOMOX Tufline/Tuflin Sleeved Plug Valves |
| XP3 named chemistry | Vinyl Chloride (VCM) explicitly named, zero packing adjustments across 4 thermal cycles | Crane ChemPharma & Energy — XOMOX Tufline/Tuflin Sleeved Plug Valves |
Benzene, toluene, and VCM are the exact aromatics/monomer chemistries a petrochemical plant runs, and they're spread across three different sub-families (FE0, SR, XP3) here rather than one — the right plug valve depends on which specific solvent and fugitive-emissions class the line actually needs.
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.
