FAQs of Brass Oil Level Indicator:
Q: How do I install the brass oil level indicator on my tank or gearbox?
A: Installation involves screwing the indicator into a compatible threaded or flanged opening using the supplied mounting nut and sealing washer. Ensure the thread size matches your tanks port (such as 1/4 BSP). For best results, tighten the fitting securely to prevent leaks, using the NBR rubber gasket for an effective seal.
Q: What are the benefits of using an oil level indicator with a clear acrylic or polycarbonate window?
A: The transparent window allows users to easily check and monitor the oil level at a glance, reducing the risk of running equipment with insufficient lubrication. Both acrylic and polycarbonate materials provide excellent clarity and durability while maintaining chemical resistance.
Q: When should I choose custom sizing for my oil level indicator?
A: Custom sizing is ideal when standard dimensions (ranging from 50 mm to 200 mm) do not fit your tank or application requirements. Custom lengths ensure accurate level readings and proper installation, especially in non-standard tanks or bespoke reservoirs.
Q: Where is this brass oil level indicator typically used?
A: It is widely used in hydraulic systems, lubrication systems, gearboxes, reservoirs, and power packs across various industries, especially where reliable and visual oil level monitoring is essential for safety and equipment performance.
Q: What is the process for selecting the right thread size and end connection?
A: First, identify the port size and threading type on your equipment (such as BSP or metric). Then choose the corresponding thread size, such as 1/4 BSP, or request a custom size if necessary. Our indicators are available with both male threaded and optional flanged ends for versatility.
Q: How does the IP54 protection class benefit my application?
A: IP54 means the indicator is protected against limited dust ingress and water splashes from any direction, making it suitable for industrial environments where accidental splashing may occur but full immersion is not a risk.
Q: What accessories are available with the brass oil level indicator?
A: Standard accessories include a sealing washer and mounting nut. Optional extras, like a temperature sensor, can be integrated for enhanced monitoring, depending on your applications needs.
