Can the limit switch with a sus316 housing be used on pneumatic valves on ships?

I would like to ask everyone: for the pneumatic drain butterfly valves used on ships, where the customer plans to install limit switches on the cylinders, I wonder whether using stainless steel 316 for the casing material would be suitable. Could corrosion occur?

Strictly speaking, 316 material is not resistant to corrosion caused by seawater or air with high salt content; it can be used, but its lifespan will be affected to some extent

It can be used; we use 316SS for all our seawater desalination projects.
