Indutrial Water Gauge Valve About
Bronze Sleeve Packed Water Level Gauge
Boss Bronze Sleeve Packed Water level Guage screwed male ends to BSP Taper Threads of flanged ends to BS-10 Table H and with automatic shut off in the water arm. Suitable for 250 PSIG (17.58 kg/cm2g) max. B.O.P and Max. Temp. Up to 428oF ( 220oC ). Tested to 500 PSIG (35.15 kg/cm2g)
Salient Features
- Each cock is fitted with a self adjusting inverted tapper plug which forms a seal in a renewable moulded asbestos sleeve.
- The sleeve can be easily positioned in the cock by a rib which fits a corresponding groove in the body
- The sleeve is reinforced by metallic eyelets to avoid clogging of the passage
- A S.S. (AISI-304) ball in the water arm cuts off water supply in the event of breakage of glass tube
- Glass tubes are fitted with replaceable rubber cones to attain a leak tight joint
Testing and Certification
All water levels gauges are tested hydrostatically at double the max. working pressure and on steam at max.

FAQs of Indutrial Water Gauge Valve:
Q: How is the Industrial Water Gauge Valve installed in water level indication systems?
A: The valve is designed for easy installation and can be mounted using either screwed or flanged ends, depending on system requirements. Globe-type construction allows straightforward integration into the piping, making it suitable for quick replacement or initial setup.
Q: What materials are used in manufacturing the valve, and why are they important?
A: Constructed from gunmetal, brass, or stainless steel, the valve componentssuch as pins and discsare corrosion-resistant. The durable materials ensure reliable performance and extend the valves lifespan, even when exposed to water, steam, and high pressures.
Q: When should you choose a customized valve size for your system?
A: Custom valve sizing is recommended when standard port dimensions, ranging from 15 mm to 50 mm, do not meet your specific installation requirements. Customization ensures optimal flow and accurate water level reading in varied industrial applications.
Q: Where can these gauge glass valves be utilized?
A: They are suitable for industrial processes involving water and steam, such as boiler water level measurement, in power plants, chemical industries, and manufacturing facilities where safe monitoring of fluid levels is critical.
Q: What is the process for manual operation and control of the valve?
A: Operated manually, the valves globe structure and quality sealing allow users to precisely control water flow or shut off access to the gauge glass. Reliable manual control ensures immediate response in maintenance or emergency situations.
Q: What are the main usage benefits of this valve type?
A: Industrial Water Gauge Valves offer accurate water level monitoring, simple installation, corrosion resistance, and flexible connection options. These features help minimize maintenance, reduce downtime, and enhance system safety.
Q: How does the valve ensure leak-proof sealing under high pressure and temperature?
A: With PTFE or gland packing as sealing mechanisms, the valve effectively prevents leaks in environments with pressures up to 20 kg/cm and temperatures up to 220C, maintaining operational integrity and safeguarding equipment.
