Daily Maintenance Of Sight Glasses

Jul 13, 2021

Valve sight glasses are divided into two categories: pipe sight glasses and equipment sight glasses. The valve sight glass is mainly composed of sight glass bottom plate, sight glass, valve components and so on. The sight glass can be used in high temperature, strong corrosive, easily poisoned, dangerous, and easy to crystallize chemical towers to ensure safe production.

The installation size is small, the driving torque is small, the operation is simple and fast, and it also has a good flow adjustment function and closing and sealing characteristics. The sight glass is the dominant sight glass in the use of large and medium caliber, medium and low pressure.

Shell material: carbon steel, stainless steel

Window material: high borosilicate glass, tempered glass, tempered borosilicate glass, quartz glass.

Seal material: PTFE, nitrile rubber, graphite metal composite

Impeller material: stainless steel

Size: 1/2 inch---8 inch

Pressure: 150LB, 300LB

Connection mode: flange connection, welding connection, threaded connection

Maintenance and maintenance of glass sight glasses

1. The glass window is used to observe the flow reaction of liquid, gas, steam and other media and should be kept clean and dust-free.

2. The window glass is suitable for damage, so be careful when installing the sight glass.

3. The temperature and pressure resistance of glass has certain limitations, depending on the actual situation.

The following provides the physical experiment parameters of the national standard glass manufacturing process:

Temperature resistance: tempered borosilicate glass200, quartz glass1000, aluminosilicate glass450

Pressure resistance: tempered borosilicate glass sheet 2.5MPa, quartz glass sheet 10.0MPa, aluminum silicate glass 6.4MP

4. The allowable sudden change temperature is less than 60, and the glass is broken due to excessive temperature difference.

Precautions for use of sight glasses

1. Installation of the sight glass

Arbitrary installation of swing-plate sight glass without installation restrictions is its characteristic

2. Sight glass lens installation

Make sure that the lens holder is flat and smooth, and the gasket between the lens and the lens holder is installed smoothly, the gasket is not damaged and does not stick to grease. Before tightening the screws, make sure that the mirror holder and the cover are installed correctly, and then slowly tighten the screws.

3. Check the nameplate parameters carefully, not only to make sure that the components connected to the sight glass lens are well sealed, but also that the sealing between the sight glass and the welding flange is good, and to ensure that the pressure in the pipeline does not exceed the rating of the swing plate sight glass pressure.

4. Do not put additional pressure on the sight glass after installation, otherwise it will cause uneven force on the sight glass and cause the sight glass to break.
