It is a level gauge or sight glass where it provides the mounts that go onto the side of a tank. From here a ciclular glass tube is inserted into the mounts to allow for a reading of the internal level of the tank.

This bronze tank mount's maximum operating pressure is up to 700 kPa (approximately 7 bar or 100 psi). However, these tanks are usually under only the pressure of gravity, so the head pressure is quite low. It is suitable for applications where the temperature does not exceed 80°C (176°F).

This tank mount is ideal for low-pressure systems that store or handle water, oil, or similar fluids where monitoring tank level is essential.

Self-cleaning is a specific mechanical design feature that minimizes sediment build-up and helps maintain a precise glass gauge for viewing. Turning the handle will insert a spindle into the inlet port of the mounts, which will clean away any sediment or potential blockages. Please note that this does not go all the way through the mount.

This mount is designed primarily for water, oil, and compatible low-pressure liquids. The bronze material may not be suitable for highly acidic or corrosive chemicals. Consult with us before using the mount with non-standard liquids.

The mount accommodates 12mm (1/2") or 16mm (⅝”) glass gauges. The gauge should fit securely within the mount, which should be installed correctly to prevent leaks.

Yes, this tank mount is made of bronze, an ideal material for water and oil systems. It does have brass components as well as an NBR or FKM sealing O'ring.

The most important part is to ensure that the top and bottom mount are in vertical alignment so the glass can sit between the two vessel centers. Proper sealing and securing are critical to prevent leaks and ensure the tank mount remains stable during operation.

Yes, it is suitable for use in both indoor and outdoor environments. As long as the temperature and pressure are within working limits and the media is compatible, it can be used in either setting.

The self-cleaning feature minimizes routine maintenance, but we recommend periodic inspections to ensure the mount and glass gauge function accurately.

Yes, the bronze tank mount is designed to allow for straightforward removal and replacement of the glass gauge.

Replacement parts, including glass gauges and seals, can be purchased directly from Stead & Baker.

You just need to make sure that your system meets the mount's pressure and temperature specifications (i.e., maximum pressure of 700 kPa and temperature below 80°C). You will also need 12mm (1/2") or 15mm (⅝”) gauge glass to fit the mount. You can contact our customer service team for guidance if you are unsure.
