Round sight glasses DIN 8902
Round sight glasses DIN 8902 made of soda-lime glass
Soda-lime glass to DIN 8902: Technical glass for use in sight glass fittings Soda-lime glass is a common technical glass that is used in a variety of applications, including sight glass fittings. DIN 8902 specifies the requirements for soda-lime glass for use in fittings.
Properties of soda-lime glass DIN 8902
Soda-lime glass is an alkaline silicate glass made from the raw materials quartz sand, soda and lime. It is a low-cost glass with good chemical resistance and medium mechanical strength.
The most important properties of soda-lime glass for use in fittings are Temperature resistance: Soda-lime glass is resistant up to a temperature of
Chemical resistance: Soda-lime glass is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including water, acids and alkalis.
Application of soda-lime glass in fittings
Soda-lime glass is used in fittings for the visual inspection of processes. For example, it is used in tank sight glasses to read the fill level or in flow sight glasses to monitor the flow. DIN 8902: Requirements for soda-lime glass for fittings
