Ritec partnerJacoby-Tarbox 830 / 805-S full view tubular sight flow indicator
Low pressure tubular glass sight flow indicator with a 360° view: 830-F flanged 1/2" to 12" and 805-S threaded 1/8" to 2", up to 150 psig (10.3 bar), drip versions available.
Where maximum visibility matters more than pressure, the tubular sight flow indicators give a complete 360° view of the flow. A borosilicate cylinder is clamped between two end plates by tie rods; clear or graduated cylinders are available in lengths up to 48”.
The units are meant for light duty below 150 psig and for lines without mechanical stress from the piping. They are best suited to vertical lines but can be installed horizontally. The allowable pressure falls with size, from 150 psig on the small sizes to 20 psig on a 12” 830-F, so the table in the datasheet decides.
The 830-F has flanged ends, the 805-S threaded ends. Both come as drip versions (830-FD, 805-SD) for observing condensing vapours.
Selection data we need
Pipe size and end connection, medium, operating pressure and temperature, line orientation, plain or drip, and the cylinder length if a longer view is needed.
Applications
- Light duty lines below 150 psig without pipe strain
- Vertical lines where maximum visibility is wanted
- Drip observation of condensing vapours
