All units and parts listed in this catalogue are produced from non-corrosive acid-resistant Cr – Ni steel ČSN 17 240, which is the equivalent of the German standard DIN 1.4301. If the corrosion-proof requirements of the parts are higher they are produced from non-corrosive Cr-Ni-Mo steel ČSN 17 349 which conforms to DIN 1.4404.
