A sight glass is a transparent tube that allows users to observe the fluid flowing through it. This device is used for analyzing conditions in industrial equipment and chemical reactors.
Materials and Features
Sight glasses are usually made of very durable glass that does not get damaged under specific conditions.
The glass is strengthened through a thermal process, and an additional protective coating is applied to guard against chemical substances.
These features make the glass resistant to stress, reducing the likelihood of breaking and causing damage to the surrounding environment.
Reasons for Needing a Sight Glass
A sight glass allows for the conversion of a closed system to an open system.
This conversion leads to simpler equipment inspections, resulting in significant savings in time and costs.
Additionally, the quality of the resources used in processes is maintained.
