Cylindrical
Sheathed Tube Models are recommended for applications where increased
visibility is required. They may be used in pipe line systems
that operate under some degree of mechanical strain, with sheathing
providing the necessary indicator protection and support. Models
are constructed using borosilicate tube glass and various "head" metals
depending on application. Note: System content
does not contact indicator bodies, only indicator heads, glass
and gasketing.
To
enhance quality and performance, the bodies (sheaths)
of the 1000-S Armored Full-View model uses ASTM A278
Ductile Iron Class 30. The body of the Armored
Full-View Sight Flow is not considered a wetted component. The
medium passing through the Armored Full-View Sight
Flow Indicator comes in contact with only the glass
and the connection ends.
Similar to the Full-View, the Armored Full-View Sight
Flow Indicators are unique because the "characteristics" of
the liquid can be viewed. A typical sight
flow allows observation of liquids through a glass
pane while the Full-View sight flow allows observation
of liquids in transit through a more dynamic, 3-dimensional
pipeline. Designing the Full-View to match the
pipe diameter streamlines the liquid flow through the
sight flow and helps to keep solids from settling.
Cylindrical Sheathed Tube Models are recommended for
applications where increased visibility is required. They
may be used in pipe line systems that operate under
some degree of mechanical strain, with sheathing providing
the necessary indicator protection and support. They
are all fabricated using borosilicate tubes and cylinders. The
joints around the cylinders are made through a stuffing
box type seal. Larger
