1) Reflective tape REF-AC1000. 

2) To ensure reliable operation, we recommend using REF-AC1000 reflective tape or reflective-tap reflectors such as P41F, PLV14-A, PLH25-M12, or PLH25-D12. Reflectors with large-scale triple structures must only be used if deemed suitable for the application. 

3) Average service life: 50,000 h at TU = +25 °C. 

4) Difference between standard/washdown and hygiene: The essential difference between a standard/washdown product and a hygiene product is that where the process and contact with the medium (activity in the vicinity of the food) are concerned, a hygiene product is designed in accordance with the latest standards and hygiene design guidelines, and materials are selected accordingly.
