What Is a Stainless Steel Sight Glass (Union End)?
The Union-End Sight Glass by Neza Engineering Co. is a high-performance component designed for visual flow observation in hygienic pipeline systems. It allows plant operators to visually inspect fluid movement, product clarity, and process continuity without interrupting the system.
This hygienic sight glass features removable union connections, which allow for easy disassembly and cleaning, making it ideal for CIP/SIP systems in dairy, food, pharma, beverage, and chemical processing.
Unlike welded options, the union end design offers flexibility, mobility, and zero downtime, making it perfect for process lines requiring frequent inspection.
