Overview
An IBR-approved cast steel sleeve packed water level gauge with flanged ends, designed for boiler water level indication in steam service. Features an automatic shut-off device in the water arm, available in right-hand or left-hand orientation. Built to ASTM A216 Gr.WCB body with stainless steel trim, rated for high-pressure, high-temperature boiler installations. A test certificate in Form III-C as per IBR is furnished with every supply, sized and serviced for boiler plants across Nepal.
Features & Benefits
- Automatic shut-off device in the water arm closes the gauge connection if the glass breaks, preventing uncontrolled steam or hot water discharge — a critical safety feature for boiler-mounted level gauges where glass failure under pressure is a real operational hazard.
- Sleeve packed design uses moulded asbestos sleeves around the spindle, providing a reliable high-temperature seal at the 400°C rating that standard O-ring or gland packing arrangements could not sustain.
- Right hand / left hand orientation availability allows correct mounting on either side of the boiler shell without requiring a mirrored special order, simplifying installation across different boiler designs.
- IBR Form III-C test certification supplied with every unit is a mandatory compliance requirement for boiler-mounted instrumentation in India, making this gauge usable on regulated steam boiler installations without additional certification sourcing.
- AISI-410 stainless steel spindle resists the corrosion and wear from repeated operation in hot, mineral-laden boiler water better than carbon steel internals would over the gauge's service life.
- Cast steel body rated to 700 Psig body test pressure gives a substantial safety margin above the 350 Psig maximum working pressure, appropriate for a component directly mounted on a pressurized boiler shell.
