I am looking to use a PVC pump to push a flammable, explosive gas of minimal gage pressure (3 mbar) between two rooms. I chose PVC because it is non sparking, but I am concerned about static electricity build up. The pump will be used for 10 minutes at a time in a portable application, I am concerned about sparking between the PVC and the gas or the lubricant in the pump, resulting in a potential explosion. Are there any thoughts/concerns or advice on grounding PVC piping?
