Sanitary Union Sight Glass
The Union Sight Glass (also called a union-end or sanitary union sight glass) uses a three-piece sanitary union end connection that allows quick, tool-free removal of the sight glass body from the pipeline without disturbing adjacent pipe sections. This design is ideal for frequent inspection, cleaning, or replacement of the glass element in hygienic process systems.
