Ordered as 4SHP050X24, this is a High Pressure Tubular Gauge Glass with an outside diameter of 1/2 inch and a length of 24 inch. The tubular gauge glass provides continuous level indication with no instrumentation or electrical supply required.
Expect good resistance to internal pressure, chemical attack from water and steam, and thermal shock. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Borosilicate gauge glass is known for annealed for consistent strength, precision-formed bore and wall thickness. Exposure to service beyond the rated pressure and temperature or abrasive cleaning will shorten service life.
Maintenance and OEM teams specify it across water treatment, process tanks and vessels, and boilers and steam drums.
Reference part number 4SHP050X24 when ordering; the item is sold by the piece. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application.
