What’s covered in this Webinar
Sight glass assemblies are vital components for process control, but they are often underspecified. When the specification does not match the real operating environment, the result is rarely a slow decline. It is a crack, a leak or a sudden rupture, along with the shutdown, lost product and safety exposure that follow.
This webinar gives process engineers, plant managers and purchasing managers the framework to specify sight glasses that hold up under the worst-case conditions, so failure stops being a question of when.
In this free webinar, you will learn:
• The six most common causes of premature sight glass failure and the warning signs for each
• Why a published pressure rating is not a static parameter, and how temperature, viewing diameter and glass thickness change it
• How corrosion and thermal cycling weaken glass before any haze is visible
• When to upgrade to a fused glass-to-metal design like METAGLAS®, which is 4.5X stronger than a comparable standard sight glass, with no reported sudden total failure from explosive shattering
Presented by Oscar Flores, International Sales Manager at LJ Star, this session hands you a decision framework you can apply to the next sight glass you specify, install or maintain. Get the specification right and a sight glass resists extreme temperature, pressure swings and corrosion, keeping your process running and your people safe, and helping you avoid the unplanned shutdowns and safety hazards a wrong specification sets in motion.
Watch our free webinar and learn how to keep a sight glass in your process from causing a high-cost failure.
