FLAT GLASS LEVEL GAUGE

By KENCO

KMR & KHR Reflex Level Gauges and Valves

The KMR & KHR Reflex Level Gauges and Valves are used where direct visual observation of process fluids is required.  These gauges are suitable for a wide range of applications with pressures up to 4000psig at 100℉, and temperatures up to 750℉ at 2300psig.  KENCO gauges are available in a wide variety of construction materials, connections and other options to meet most specifications.

Applications

Reflex gauges have a single piece of glass, mounted on one side of the chamber. This piece of glass is flat on the outside, and has a series of prisms on the inside, facing the process fluid. When light strikes the portion of the glass covered by a liquid, the light is reflected from the back of the chamber. This area appears “black”. When light strikes the glass where no liquid is present, the prisms reflect the light directly out of the gauge. This area appears “silvery”. Reflex gauges provide an excellent way to measure clear, or difficult to see fluids. The “silvery”/”black” interface is easy to see from several feet away.

KMT & KHT Transparent Level Gauges & Valves

The KMT & KHT Transparent Level Gauges & Valves are used where direct visual observation of process fluids is required.  These gauges are suitable for a wide range of applications with pressures up to 4000psig at 100℉, and temperatures up to 750℉ at 2300psig.  KENCO gauges are available in a wide variety of construction materials, connections and other options to meet most specifications.

Applications

Transparent gauges have two pieces of glass on opposite sides of the chamber. Light enters the gauge from one side, and the level is viewed from the other. Transparent gauges are useful when the actual liquid characteristics need to be seen. They are also commonly used for liquid-liquid interfaces. Mica shields can be used in transparent gauges to protect the glass in steam environments. Kel-F shields should be used in corrosive environments.
