L.J. Star Inc., the leading provider of process observation equipment, has released a white paper that offers straightforward guidance on how to select the appropriate sight glass for various applications.

The “Step-by-Step Guide to Sight Glass Selection” will, says the company, help engineers determine not only which of the two types of sight glass best suits their needs (a sight glass window or a sight flow indicator) but details numerous important considerations, including:
• viewing requirements;
• optimal viewing area size;
