Install / Failure Note

Both ammonia species sit inside MS6's narrow 7-chemical factory pre-calibration list; a customer running a different ammonia concentration or a different amine altogether needs Blue-White's custom-calibration path, not an assumption that PVDF/PEEK construction alone covers it.

Ammonia and ammonium hydroxide are common caustic-service fluids in water treatment, but 'PVDF-bodied meter' is not the same claim as 'factory-calibrated for this exact concentration' — Liberty CES quotes the MS6 for 10% aqueous ammonia or 30% ammonium hydroxide specifically because Blue-White's own pre-calibration list names those concentrations, not because PVDF is broadly ammonia-resistant.

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.
