Gauge Glass - Reflex

These glasses are distinguished by the grooves down the face. The grooves increase the angle of refraction which makes the visibility of the liquid level is much better than when using Transparent Plain glass. Mica are not suitable for Reflex Gauge Glass, and so without this protection they are not suitable for steam applications.

Reflex glasses may be used in pressure up to 35 bar. In this area are sufficiently resistant to the environment. The reading is clear and contrasting. In the case of factors other than steam reflex glasses may be used up to 400 bar or 400˚C.

Reflex level gauge glasses are supplied either individually or in sets with gaskets.

Reflex Gauge Glass after moulding is subjected to a two-sided polishing and toughening. The very specific glass types, most commonly 4.2 expansion Borosilicate Glass results in products characterised by high mechanical strength and high resistance to alkalis, acids and condensates

Reflex glasses can be produced to non standard sizes, please contact us to discuss.
