GAUGE FEATURES:
The sight tube of the Bulk Level Gauge is totally protected. Three sides of the gauge are protected with a metal frame, while the face of the gauge is protected with a polycarbonate shield. This shield can be custom calibrated to read tank volume or any other calibration. For mounting purposes, a mounting lug is welded to the back of the gauge. The standard sight tube is glass; other sight tube materials are available, along with a wide option of o-ring seals. The gauge is fitted with 1/2″ MNPT x 3/8″ FNPT connections.
REFLEX LEVEL GAUGES AND VALVES
REFLEX STYLE LEVEL GAUGE
Reflex gauges have a single piece of glass, mounted on one side of the chamber. This piece of glass is flat on the outside, and has a series of prisms on the inside, facing the process fluid. When light strikes the portion of the glass covered by a liquid, the light is reflected from the back of the chamber. This area appears “black”. When light strikes the glass where no liquid is present, the prisms reflect the light directly out of the gauge. This area appears “silvery”. Reflex gauges provide an excellent way to measure clear, or difficult to see fluids. The “silvery”/”black” interface is easy to see from several feet away.
WHY USE FLAT GLASS GAUGES
Flat Glass Gauges have been in use for over 100 years. They give you the ability to directly view the process fluid under temperature/pressure conditions that would render most other level technologies useless. Their construction is very robust, and reliable. They define the term “simple to use”…after installation, the only tool you will need is your eyes. Flat Glass Gauges are relatively inexpensive as compared to most other level technologies.
