Description
The Des-Case Oil Sight Glass is constructed of high-performance transparent polyamide, or acrylic in high-volume capacities (16, 32oz). This clear, durable design enables immediate visual oil level monitoring with a 360˚ field of view, with a white-bottom to the bottle to enhance visibility of any sediment. This model installs directly to a reservoir's drain port, in vertical or horizontal configurations (16 and 32oz are vertical only).
Indication marks on the side of the bottle increases accuracy of visual monitoring of water accumulation, and the spring-loaded drain valve permits easy purging of said water. According to the latest API 610 standard (12th edition, January 2021) the use of a BS&W-bottom sediment and waste bowl-such as the Oil Sight Glass are now recommended for wet sump oil lubricated pumps to detect the presence of water and other gross contamination.
Applications:
- Pumps
- Gearboxes
- Storage tanks
- Fluid-lubricated machinery
