Materials and Sealing
The body is available in stainless steel 1.4404 or 1.4571. Covers are stainless steel, bolts A4-70, and sight glasses are borosilicate per DIN 7080 or soda-lime per DIN 8902. Standard sealing is graphite, with other materials available depending on fluid and temperature.
Application Scope
Type 111 is used for visual inspection of filling and flow in liquid pipelines. Suitable for process water, CIP/drain lines, compatible chemical fluids, and auxiliary circuits where local observation is required without sensors or electrical signals.
Difference from NORIS 108
The 108 can be installed horizontally or vertically, while the 111 is specifically designed for horizontal installation to prevent liquid retention in the body. Selection is based on piping layout and drainage requirements.
FAQ
Does it accept an actuator?
No. It is a passive flow indicator.
What should be specified in the order?
DN, PN16, temperature, body material, glass type, sealing material, fluid, and need for lighting or special connection.
