SG Sight Glass is used to liquid line of refrigerant and air conditioning device, to indicate the flow situation of the refrigerant, the moisture content in the refrigerant, and the flow in the oil return line from the oil separator.
 
It is fitted with a moisture indicator,which changes color to show the moisture content in the refrigerant.
 
SG Sight Glass is using modified PTFE sealing materials, and applicable to a variety of refrigerant and POE oil, with perfect sealing performance.
 
SG Sight Glass applies anti-explosion connecting structure, which makes the observing of sight window safely and easily.
