Product Description
Glass-Trac Transparent Gages use clear, seethrough glass on both sides so that both the color and the interface of liquids can be viewed. Transparent glass is flat on both sides. Level indication depends on the color of the liquid or meniscus. Transparent gages have flat glass on both sides of the chamber to allow sufficient light to enhance viewing. Illuminators are used to supplement ambient light. Since transparent glass is flat on both sides, the glass may be shielded by mica or PCTFE (Formerly Kel-F ®, a registered trademark of 3M).
Specify transparent gages where:
• Liquid-liquid interface must be viewed;
• Shields to protect the glass must be used;
• Steam above 350 PSIG (2068 KPaG) is to be gaged, using mica shields;
• Liquid viscosity may foul reflex prisms.
