LEVEL MEASUREMENT TECHNOLOGIES

Glass-Trac Welding Pad Gages are used when standard tank connections cannot be used or when the liquid has solids in suspension. The gage becomes an integral part of the vessel because it is welded right onto the outer wall. Reflex or Transparent glass is used in any nine standard lengths. Standard covers are 3 1/8” wide. NOTES: welding pad gages to be used on vessels less than 36” in diameter must be special ordered. The welding pad body must be machined to allow proper fit up.
Method of installation:

• Assemble complete gage with spacer plate (available on request) in place of gage glass.
• Place gage in exact location desired on empty vessel and weld around circumference of the pad.
• Allow gage to cool, then remove cover and spacer. Drill or burn top and bottom holes in vessel wall at the top and bottom of each gage slot. Slot is 5/8” wide.
• Replace gage glass, gasket, cushion and cover. Torque bolts to prescribed foot/pounds.
