“Time is money” as the saying goes and in today’s plant environment, where the goal is to prevent any disruptions in production and throughput, hidden cost centers and controllable loss prevention are two areas of critical focus. With competitive market pressures to stretch aging instrumentation as long as possible, repairs and replacements for problematic instrumentation technologies, over time, can severely impact budgets; hence, they become a hidden cost center in their own right. Sight glass gauges fall into this category. Although mandated by ASME code in certain instances, there are much better solutions which bring added value in the form of overall safety, functionality, performance and maintenance to these as well as non-ASME coded applications.
