Rich, What kind of equipment does your company design? I've used and found SEMI S2 as an excellent design guideline for many applications including harsh chemicals. In addition to SEMI S2, there are several other design guidelines they've published that cover many topics. SEMI was developed specifically for the Semiconductor industry but you still may find it helpful. I would start with SEMI S2 first and then look in the reference section for other related material. Their link: http://www.semi.org/ You also may want to look at some of the Mil spec's.
