Sight glass with strainer

A sight glass with strainer is a combined product type that enables visual observation of the approximate fluid condition while a straining element screens particles. Window arrangement, screen construction, flow orientation, and service access vary by product and must be established for the actual model; visual observation is not a substitute for accurate flow measurement.
