Full-View Sight Flow Indicators

Full-View Sight Flow Indicators provide maximum, 360° viewing of fluid dynamics.
Available in NPT threaded-end and flanged designs, these Sight Flow Indicators are designed to enhance the visibility of process media as it passes through the glass cylinder.  Full 360° viewing area expands the number of positions and locations in which the unit can be mounted for full visibility.

Models

SNV Plain NPT FV Sight Flow Indicator
SNVD NPT FV SFI (Drip Tube)
SNL Plain Large Cylinder FV SFI
SNV-F Plain Flanged FV Sight Flow Indicator
SNVD-F Flanged FV SFI (Drip Tube)

The Full-View Sight Flow Indicators are recommended for low-pressure applications where maximum visibility is needed. In addition to standard length models, Penberthy offers customized lengths up to 48", in 1/8" increments.

Full-View Sight Flow Indicators are unique because the "character" of the liquid can be viewed.  In other words, a typical sight flow allows observation of liquids through a glass pane.  The Full-View sight flow allows observation of liquids in transit through a more dynamic, 3-dimensional pipeline.  Designing the Full-View to match the pipe diameter streamlines the liquid flow through the sight flow and helps avoid solids settling.

Units are best suited for vertical applications.  Horizontal mounting is acceptable if there is no mechanical strain imposed on the glass cylinder.  Flange mounting studs are provided with SNV-F and SNVD-F flanged models for convenient flange-to-flange connections.  Providing customized studs reduces the possibility of damaging the glass or flange by selecting an inappropriate bolt size or torquing the Full-View Sight Flow Indicator beyond its proper limit.  To enhance quality and performance, the Full-View Sight Flow Indicator uses ductile iron rather than gray iron as the standard material of construction.

Industrial areas where 
low pressure viewing 
is needed:

Distillation - essential oils; fuels

Consumer Products - soaps and 
detergents; food and beverage

Chemical/Dyes - dye colors; degree
of disassociation

Agricultural - slurries; fertilizers

Polymers - degree of pelletization

Pharmaceuticals - drugs and 
cosmetics

Materials of Construction
for all Models and Bodies

Standard:
ASTM A536 Ductile Iron Gr 65-45-12
ASTM B62 Bronze Alloy 836
ASTM A216 Steel Gr WCB

Optional:
ASTM 494 Monel Gr M-35-1
ASTM A494 Hastelloy C CW12MW
ASTM A743 Alloy 20 CN7M
Consult Factory for other 
materials/components.

available in PVC Type 1 and Polypropylene.

SNV Dimensions
Standard sizes from: 1/8" to 2"

SNL Dimensions
Standard sizes from: 1/4" to 2"

SNV-F Dimensions
Standard sizes from: 1/2" to 6"

Armored Full-View Sight Flow Indicators

The best view with the strength to fight mechanical strain.
Available in NPT and flanged models, Armored Full-View Sight Flow Indicators are designed to provide additional strength and to enhance the visibility of process media as it passes through the cylinder.  Indicator viewing area is over 200°.

Models

SAV NPT Armored Full-View SFI
SAV-S Screw-in Armored Full-View SFI
SAV-F Flanged Armored Full-View SFI

The Armored Full-View Sight Flow Indicators are recommended for low-pressure applications where maximum visibility is needed.  Units can be mounted in vertical or horizontal orientations.  The glass sheath is designed to protect the glass from external mechanical hits.

To enhance quality and performance, the bodies (sheaths) of the SAV and SAV-F Armored Full-View models use ASTM A536 Ductile Iron Gr 65-45-12 rather than Gray Iron as the standard material of construction.  The body of the SAV-S uses ASTM B62 Bronze Alloy 836 as the standard material of construction.  The body of the Armored Full-View Sight Flow is not considered a wetted component.  The medium passing through the Armored Full-View Sight Flow Indicator comes in contact with only the glass and the connection ends.

Similar to the Full-View, the Armored Full-View Sight Flow Indicators are unique because the "character" of the liquid can be viewed.  The Armored Full-View Sight Flow allows observation of liquids in transit through a more dynamic, 3-dimensional pipeline.  Designing the Armored Full-View to match the pipe diameter streamlines the liquid flow through the sight flow and helps avoid solids settling.

Flange mounting studs are provided with SAV-F flanged models for convenient flange-to-flange connections.  Providing customized studs reduces the possibility of damaging the glass or flange by selecting an inappropriate bolt size or torquing the Armored Full-View Sight Flow Indicator beyond its proper limit.
