MS Frame Sight Glass

MS Frame Sight Glass is a heavy-duty inline visual inspection device designed to monitor liquid flow in non-transparent industrial pipelines . It provides 360-degree clear visibility  and is suitable for both horizontal and vertical installations .

The assembly is engineered to protect the borosilicate glass from mechanical stress while maintaining excellent chemical and thermal resistance .

Construction & Design

The MS Frame Sight Glass consists of the following precision-engineered components:

  • Borosilicate Glass 3.3 Pipe Section
    • High thermal shock resistance
    • Excellent chemical compatibility
    • Low thermal expansion
  • Mild Steel (MS) Frame
    • Two-flange welded construction
    • Absorbs pipeline vibration and stress
    • Prevents load transfer to glass section
  • PTFE Bushes & Washers
    • Isolates process fluid from metal frame
    • Ensures leak-proof sealing
  • Check Nut Assembly
    • Keeps glass under controlled compression
    • Enables quick glass replacement
  • Acrylic Protective Cover
    • Protects glass from external impact
    • Maintains full visibility

Key Features

  • Full-view observation from all angles
  • Suitable for corrosive & high-temperature fluids
  • Stress-free glass mounting design
  • Easy maintenance & replacement
  • Compatible with standard pipeline drilling
