This data is a screening reference, not a final engineering approval; confirm with a manufacturer-specific data sheet before specifying equipment.
LibertyCES specifies and supplies the pumps, valves, tanks, piping, and instrumentation that store, transfer, meter, and contain methylene chloride and other salts / brines — never the chemical itself, always the equipment engineered to handle it.
