SS-SVP Sanitary View Port

Sanitary View Port Description:

The strongest, most secure sanitary sight glass available, Viewport’ mechanically prestressed windows are available in a sanitary clamp design for sight ports in processing applications or in line visual flow indicators.

Unlike some other sight glasses, viewport sight glasses meet the USP Type 1 standard for pharmaceutical use.

Described as offering the optics of glass and the strength of steel, these glass elements provide a level of safety, and useful service life, well beyond that provided by conventional tempered glass or plastic in sanitary service. Even at the most extreme temperatures (as high as 536°F) or in overpressure situations, sudden, total failure – that involving leakage or explosive shattering of the glass – essentially never occurs.

Sanitary View Port Specifications:

• USP Class VI (tested to confirm biocompatibility)
• BPE Compliant and TUV Approved
• Sight glass fused to metal conforming to DIN7079
• Borosilicate glass to USP Type I and DIN7080

• Certificate of Conformity to EN 10204-3.1B or 3.1A

Sanitary View Port Applications:

Sanitary View Port is manufactured to fit sanitary clamp connections. With simple, fast installation and no risk of breakage, this sleek, compact, one-piece design provides a cleaner look, fewer bacteria traps, and unsurpassed safety. The View Port sight glass can be used as a viewable port mounted on a ferrule, a “cross” for inline visual flow indication, or as a light port. Many other connection types are also available.
