Flow sight glass with flange connections suitable for ASME B 16.5
Flow sight glass Class 150 | 300 lbs
The flow sight glass type 530A was specifically developed for industrial pressure applications and stands for maximum operational safety and durability even under extreme conditions. The particularly robust welded construction, which is made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel alloys such as 1.4571, guarantees reliable function even under continuous pressure and temperature stress. Upon request, variants with particularly resistant materials such as nickel-based alloys or Hastelloy® are also available, allowing the sight glass to be reliably used in highly aggressive or thermally stressed process environments.
The type 530A features two oppositely arranged sight plates made of high-quality, thermally pre-stressed borosilicate glass. These glasses are designed according to the requirements of DIN 7080 and enable clear, safe process observation from two sides or targeted illumination of the medium. Thanks to the dual-sided visibility, visual control of the process in real-time is possible – an essential safety and efficiency advantage in modern process engineering.
The flange connections comply with DIN EN 1759-1 and ensure compliant, safe integration into existing piping systems. The connection flanges according to DIN EN 1759-1 fit onto counter flanges according to ASME B 16.5. The design, strength calculation, and construction are based on the PED 2014/68/EU and the AD 2000 guidelines. Depending on requirements, the flow sight glass can be manufactured in pressure classes up to Class 300 lbs, making it ideal for pressure applications in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, or energy industries.
Thanks to its thoughtful design, high-quality material selection, and flexible execution options, the flow sight glass type 530A offers a durable, safe, and individually adaptable solution for the most demanding industrial applications.
