Sight Glasses

Sight glasses are transparent or translucent devices used to visually inspect the contents of tanks, vessels, pipelines, and other equipment in industrial processes. They provide a clear view of the liquid or gas level, color, flow, and other characteristics, allowing operators to monitor and control the process. Sight glasses are made of various materials, such as glass, plastic, quartz, or metal, and can be installed in various orientations and configurations, such as bolt-on, weld-on, or clamp-on. They are commonly used in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical, oil and gas, and water treatment industries, among others. Sight glasses come in different sizes, shapes, and designs, such as flat, circular, tubular, and reflex, depending on the application requirements. They are essential components of many process systems, ensuring safety, efficiency, and quality.
