The Xtract® Oil Sight Glass (OSG) is an essential tool for maintaining the health of your machinery by providing immediate visual access to the condition of your oil. This innovative product allows you to quickly and easily inspect your oil, ensuring it is free from contaminants that could harm your equipment.
The standout feature of the Xtract® Oil Sight Glass is its spring-loaded drain valve, which enables you to efficiently drain any accumulated water from the oil. This helps prevent water-related issues, such as corrosion or reduced lubrication efficiency, keeping your machinery running smoothly and reducing the risk of costly breakdowns.
The Xtract® OSG is versatile in its installation, able to be mounted directly to a drain port located at the bottom of a reservoir, or with the help of an elbow for drain ports located on the side of the equipment. This flexibility ensures it can be easily integrated into most setups without extensive modifications.
Constructed with brass hardware and made from strong, impact- and stain-resistant acrylic, the Xtract® Oil Sight Glass is built to withstand the rigors of tough operating environments. Its durable design ensures that it can handle the pressure and temperature demands of most industrial applications, providing reliable performance over the long term.
Incorporating the Xtract® Oil Sight Glass into your maintenance routine gives you the ability to proactively monitor oil quality, detect issues early, and extend the life of your equipment. This simple yet powerful tool is a valuable addition to any lubrication management program, offering peace of mind and helping you protect your investment in critical machinery.
The Xtract® Large-Volume Oil Sight Glass is designed to meet the needs of industrial applications requiring enhanced oil monitoring capabilities. With its increased capacity, this sight glass allows for a more comprehensive visual inspection of your oil, providing valuable insights into its condition and helping you maintain the health and efficiency of your equipment.
Like the original Xtract® Oil Sight Glass, the large-volume version features a spring-loaded drain valve that makes it easy to remove accumulated water from the oil. This added volume offers an extended view, enabling better detection of water, sediment, and other contaminants that can lead to equipment failure if not addressed promptly.
The Xtract® Large-Volume Oil Sight Glass is built to endure the toughest environments. Its robust construction includes durable brass hardware and impact-resistant, stain-proof acrylic, ensuring it can withstand high pressures and extreme temperatures commonly found in industrial settings.
This larger sight glass is especially beneficial for equipment operating in challenging conditions where monitoring oil quality is crucial. It can be installed directly to a drain port at the bottom of a reservoir or mounted using an elbow for side drain ports, making it adaptable to various types of machinery.
Incorporating the Xtract® Large-Volume Oil Sight Glass into your maintenance strategy allows for real-time, hands-on monitoring of your oil’s condition, helping you catch potential issues early. This proactive approach reduces the risk of unplanned downtime and extends the lifespan of your equipment, providing significant long-term cost savings.
The Xtract® Oil Sight Glass & Level Monitor is a comprehensive, all-in-one solution designed for operators who need to effectively manage oil levels while maintaining clear visibility into the condition of their lubricants. This columnar-style sight glass offers an unmatched combination of features that simplify oil monitoring and improve overall equipment reliability.
With its clear acrylic construction, the Xtract® Oil Sight Glass & Level Monitor provides a highly visible 360-degree view of your oil, allowing for instant visual inspections from any angle. This makes it easier to detect contaminants or changes in oil condition that could indicate potential issues with your machinery.
The integrated design also includes a drain valve for easy removal of accumulated water, helping you maintain optimal oil quality. Additionally, this model comes with red and green decals that can be used to mark upper and lower oil limits, or to distinguish between running and idle oil levels, ensuring precise and efficient monitoring.
One of the standout features of this product is the inclusion of the Xclude® ND-2 Breather, which significantly enhances the performance of the sight glass. This breather helps prevent contaminants from entering the oil reservoir, offering an added layer of protection and extending the life of your oil.
For even greater versatility, the dual port model of the Xtract® Oil Sight Glass & Level Monitor includes a second 3/8” NPT thread positioned at 180 degrees. This allows for the installation of a drain valve or provides access to the oil reservoir through a pilot tube and sample adaptor, giving you more control over your lubrication management.
The Xtract® Oil Sight Glass & Level Monitor represents a substantial upgrade from traditional vented brass-and-glass sight gauges. Its modern, durable design ensures reliable performance in demanding industrial environments, making it an essential tool for anyone serious about maintaining their equipment’s lubrication systems.
The Xtract® 3-D BullsEye Sight Glass is a versatile tool designed to provide clear and easy visual monitoring of oil levels, regardless of your viewing angle. Whether used alongside a standard oil sight glass or as a standalone solution, the 3-D BullsEye offers an innovative approach to oil level management, particularly in situations where water contamination is not a concern.
Traditional sight plugs on oil reservoirs can be frustrating to use. They often require you to be positioned directly in front of them to get a proper view, and their glass surfaces tend to stain easily, making it difficult to accurately gauge oil levels. The Xtract® 3-D BullsEye Sight Glass solves these issues with its advanced design.
This sight glass is crafted from a single piece of clear, polished acrylic— the same high-quality, non-staining material used in other Xtract® sight glasses. This ensures a long-lasting, crystal-clear view that doesn’t degrade over time. The 3-D BullsEye is shaped as a cylinder, allowing you to see the oil level from any angle, providing a significant advantage over traditional sight plugs.
Installation is straightforward, thanks to its threaded design on one end, which makes it easy to secure to your equipment. Once installed, the Xtract® 3-D BullsEye Sight Glass offers continuous, unobstructed visibility, making it an essential tool for ensuring the proper oil levels in your machinery.
By upgrading to the Xtract® 3-D BullsEye Sight Glass, you’re not just improving the ease of monitoring your equipment’s oil levels—you’re also enhancing the reliability and performance of your lubrication management system. This sight glass is an ideal choice for operators looking for a modern, efficient solution to oil level monitoring in a wide range of industrial applications.
