Flange Sight Glass

Factory-direct flange sight glasses — circular borosilicate glass observation windows mounted between flanges for direct visual monitoring of fluids, gases, and process conditions in tanks, reactors, and pipelines. Available in low-pressure and high-pressure variants. Custom diameters and OEM orders welcome.

Low-Pressure vs. High-Pressure Flange Sight Glass

Type Pressure Rating Typical Use
Low-pressure flange sight glass Up to 16 bar Storage tanks, mixing vessels, food processing
High-pressure flange sight glass Up to 40 bar+ Reactors, autoclaves, pressurized pipelines

Installation Notes

Flange sight glasses are installed between two mating flanges using appropriate gaskets (PTFE, silicone, or fluororubber depending on media and temperature). Proper torque and gasket selection are critical for leak-free performance. View compatible gaskets →
