We offer a complete line of liquid level gauges. For high pressure and outdoor use, we offer the industry standard armored level gauges with our unique peripheral sealing scheme. As in other applications, peripheral sealing decouples sealing stresses from the process pressure, enabling our level gauges to meet higher temperature and pressure requirements than can be met by other designs.
Furthermore, this sealing scheme makes level gauges more forgiving of imperfect screw torqueing by operators, and permits rapid resealing of leaks without wholesale gasket replacements. As experienced plant operators know, the ease of resealing a leaky level gauge immediately contributes to enhanced safety in the handling of flammable, corrosive, or otherwise hazardous materials. This ‘soft sealing’ design also allows us to use quartz windows instead of standard tempered borosilicate, which allows our units to be configured for very high temperatures. Our armored level gages can easily satisfy fire-proof requirements (1200F/650C for 30 minutes or longer without leakage).
Combining industry-leading temperature and pressure ratings, easy resealing, and a rugged assembly that resists wear and deterioration, liquid level gauges are the safest such units in the industry. For less rigorous applications, tubular level gauges are versatile and economical alternatives.
