      In area 1 the gasket material is suitable using common installment practices subject to chemical compatibility.

      In area 2 appropriate measures are necessary for installation of the gasket to ensure maximum performance.

      In area 3 do not install gaskets in these applications without first contacting APG for technical support service.
