Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and features of Richter's 2 and 3-way sight glasses, designed for observing flow, filling levels, and conditions of liquids in pipes and vessels. These sight glasses are corrosion-resistant, lined with PFA and PTFE, and suitable for various media, including corrosive and pure substances.
Specifications:
  • Operating temperature range: -60 to 180°C (-75 to 360°F), with SGS series maxing at 150°C (300°F).
  • Pressure range: Vacuum to 16 bar (235 psi), SGS series maxing at 6 bar (87 psi).
  • Installation: Suitable for horizontal to vertical installation.
Product Features:
  • Constructed with ductile cast iron and thick-walled lining for durability.
  • Available in face-to-face lengths according to DIN EN 558-1 and ISO 5752 standards.
  • Flange connecting dimensions conform to DIN EN 1092-2, with options for ASME (ANSI) Cl. 150 drilling.
  • Optional features include double sight glass panes, lighting units, and fluoroplastic coating for enhanced chemical resistance.
Design Variants:
  • PSG Series: 2-way sight glass with PFA lining, available in DN 25-150 (1"-6") sizes.
  • TSG Series: 3-way sight glass with PFA lining, available in DN 25, 50, and 80 (1", 2", and 3") sizes.
  • SGS Series: 2-way cylindrical sight glass with PFA lining, available in DN 15-100 (1/2"-4") sizes, with optional antistatic lining.
Materials and Construction:
  • Pressure-bearing shell made of ductile cast iron EN-JS 1049 (ASTM A395).
  • Glass panes made of borosilicate glass to DIN 7080 standards.
  • External corrosion protection with epoxy coating and stainless steel nuts and bolts.
Options and Accessories:
  • Integrated check valve options available in SR series with solid or hollow balls and plugs.
  • Various lining materials including PFA, PTFE, and antistatic options.
Pressure/Temperature Diagram: The document includes a diagram illustrating the pressure and temperature limits for different sight glass series, ensuring safe operation within specified ranges.
