Install / Failure Note

Peabody's own Special Application Tanks guidance calls for all non-metallic wetted components in 12.5% sodium hypochlorite service, even though the mixer-mount hardware itself is cataloged in mild steel or 316 stainless — worth catching before a stainless impeller ends up in direct, continuous NaOCl contact.

James Riggins specs to the wetted-parts material, not the mount hardware catalog page — Peabody sells stainless mixer mounts and 12.5% sodium hypochlorite tanks in the same catalog, but its own chemical-specific guidance recommends non-metallic wetted components for that chemical, and conflating the two is how a impeller gets specified into a corrosion problem.

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.
