Sight glass ports and fittings help food and beverage manufacturers adhere to stringent quality standards by enabling process observation inside vessels and pipes. Operators can monitor process steps from mixing and blending through cleaning and gauge product characteristics such as color, clarity and consistency with equipment and components designed for sanitary applications.
