Circular Pad type sight glass
Weld-on low pressure sightglass fittings for observing the
internals of tanks, pressure vessels, silos, gear-trains,
separators and pipelines etc
Low pressure sightglasses are similar to the
DIN28-120 series and are suitable for welding into or onto
vessel walls. The reduced dimensions provide a cost
effective alternative for low pressure applications.
Available in sizes from 50mm to 300mm viewing diameters.
Applications
Rated for pressures up to 5 bar depending on size
Temperature rating up to 900°C depending on seal and
glass selection.
Construction based on guidance of the German Standard
DIN28120 and relevant parts of BS PD5500 and ASME VIII,
div 1 standards
Design Features
Meets all requirements of the Pressure
Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU.
Sightglass units can be combined with a range of light
fittings for use in hazardous or safe areas.
Also available
with wiper unit.
Material test certificates to EN102043.1 are issued with
all flanges.
Pressure testing can be provided at extra cost.
