{"title":"Oil Level Sight Glasses","description":"\u003cp\u003eOil level sight glasses show the oil level at one point of a reservoir, gearbox or hydraulic tank through a glass window. They screw into a threaded port in the tank wall, so the level can be checked at a glance without opening the tank or pulling a dipstick.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA sight glass is fitted at the height of the level that matters, usually the minimum or the normal filling level. Some sight glasses have a reflector behind the window, which makes the oil level easier to see. A metal body with a glass window tolerates high temperatures, which makes sight glasses suitable for gearboxes and hot oil systems as well as for hydraulic tanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSelect the thread size of the tank port, and check the pressure and temperature rating against the application. Use a suitable sealing ring so the thread does not leak. A sight glass shows whether the oil is at one point; to read the level over a range of heights, choose an oil level column indicator instead.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0572\/1787\/6152\/collections\/h22f7_v3.jpg?v=1793152998","url":"https:\/\/tameson.com\/collections\/oil-level-sight-glasses.oembed","provider":"Tameson.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
