Inside this comprehensive guide, you’ll discover:

  • Key considerations for specifying sight glass lighting, including technology, wattage, and mounting configurations
  • A breakdown of lighting technologies, from halogen and LED to fiber optics and metal halide
  • Light measurement, heat management, and explosion-proof ratings for hazardous locations.

By reading this handbook, you will gain the expertise to:

  • Choose the most efficient and effective lighting for your application
  • Reduce maintenance costs and improve process visibility
