I'm considering an AC motor driven, positive displacement pump for use in a cooling system where the coolant is a 50/50 mix of water and ethylene glycol. Can hardened alloy steels be safely used (pump gears, shaft, etc.) in this environment if a corrosion inhibitor is used? Also, can the motor be run wet so the coolant can also be used to cool the motor windings without using exotic corrosion resistant materials?
Thanks.
Thanks.
