Features & Benefits

Full-View Visual Inspection

Large circular or rectangular glass window provides unobstructed visual inspection of fluid colour, clarity, foam, particulates, and phase separation without interrupting pipeline flow.

Thermal Shock Resistant Glass

Borosilicate glass withstands thermal shock from rapid temperature cycling (e.g., steam-to-cold-water washdown) without cracking, unlike standard soda-lime glass.

Impact and Splash Protection

SS316 wire mesh guard protects the glass from mechanical impact from tools, scaffolding, or personnel; optional polycarbonate shield provides chemical splash protection for aggressive services.

Self-Draining Design

Sanitary tri-clamp models feature a self-draining profile with no crevices or dead legs, preventing product accumulation and bacterial growth -- essential for pharmaceutical and food-grade applications.

In-Situ Cleaning Wiper

Optional SS316 wiper blade rotates or slides across the interior glass surface, cleaning deposits and maintaining visibility without pipeline shutdown or disassembly.

Illumination for Dark Fluids

Optional LED or halogen light fitting mounted on the viewing port illuminates dark, opaque, or viscous fluids, enabling clear visual inspection in low-light process environments.
