Chemical resistance
The following table provides information on the chemical resistance of stainless steel devices with flush-mounted touch screen.
Description  | Properties  | 
|---|---|
Observe the maximum ambient temperature  | Liquids and vapors that act on the device for several minutes must not exceed a temperature of 45 °C at the device.  | 
Flush-mounted Beckhoff touch screens are resistant to many solvents. The following solvents have been explicitly tested.  | |
Solvent resistance  | According to DIN 42115 Part 2, with an action time of more than 24 hours:  | 
- ethanol, cyclohexanol, glycol, glycerine, methanol  | |
- acetone, methylene chloride, methyl ethyl ketone  | |
acetic acid (< 50%), phosphoric acid (< 30%), hydrochloric acid (< 36%), nitric acid (< 10%), sulfuric acid (< 10%), chloracetic acid (< 50%)  | |
ammonia (< 40%), caustic soda (< 40%)*, alkali carbonate solution*, potassium ferrocyanide, potassium hydroxide (< 30%)  | |
paraffin oil, castor oil, pure turpentine  | |
isopropanol, hexanol, diacetone alcohol  | |
turpentine, mineral oils, cutting oil, linseed oil  | |
unleaded petrol, diesel oil, petroleum benzine*, white spirit  | |
engine oil, gearbox oil, antifreeze  | |
bleach*, SBP 60/95*  | |
Not resistant to  | concentrated mineral acids, concentrated alkaline solutions, high-pressure steam over 100 °C  | 
benzyl alcohol, methylene chloride, dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran  | |
The same applies to a large number of household chemicals. The following household chemicals have been explicitly tested.  | |
Resistance to household chemicals  | according to DIN 42115 Part 2 with an action time of more than 24 hours:  | 
dissolved Ariel* powder, dissolved Persil* powder, Wisk, Lenor*, Downey*  | |
Ajax, dissolved Vim, Windex*  | |
glass cleaner (ammonia-based)  | |
detergents  | |
household cleaners (Fantastic, Formula 401, Joy, Gumption*, etc.)  | |
vinegar, coffee, tea, cooking fat, salad oil, salt  | |
tomato ketchup  | |
Splash resistance  | Flush-mounted Beckhoff touch screens are resistant to splash water.  |
