Mica protection discs for borosilicate glass according to DIN 7080 as reliable heat protection and to ensure functionality
Mica discs are an effective accessory for sight glass plates made of borosilicate glass according to DIN 7080. They serve as heat protection and a protective layer between the process medium and the glass surface, particularly in applications with aggressive media, overheated steam or high temperatures.
In conjunction with MAXOS® borosilicate glass discs according to DIN 7080, operating temperatures of up to 320 °C are possible. The mica discs significantly extend the lifespan of the sight glass plates.
The principle of operation is based on the high temperature and chemical resistance of natural muscovite mica. The mica disc is positioned between the process medium and the sight glass without significantly impairing optical transparency. This prevents the borosilicate glass from being damaged by erosive or corrosive media as well as by thermal shocks.
