Marine Self-Closing Level Gauge | Direct & Fail-Safe Visual Indication

Get a clear, direct view of your tank levels. This gauge includes a self-closing valve that instantly stops leaks if the glass is damaged. This protects your crew, prevents spills, and provides a simple, power-free way to monitor your tanks.

Accreditation and Certificates:

Approved-logo3-1
Overview
This level gauge provides a straightforward way to see the liquid level in a tank. It uses a glass tube (ULG type) or a glass plate (ULB type) mounted between two valves connected to the tank. The critical component is the self-closing safety feature. If the glass breaks, internal check valves in the top and bottom fittings automatically shut. This action stops a potential spill. This simple, mechanical design gives you a reliable,
at-a-glance reading without needing any electrical power.

    (flash point >65°C).

Applications:

  • Fresh Water Tanks: For direct visual monitoring of potable and service water levels.
  • Fuel Oil Service And Settling Tanks: Allows for local, at-a-glance checks of daily fuel supply.
  • Lubricating Oil Storage Tanks: Used to confirm sufficient lubrication oil reserves for machinery.
  • Bilge Water Holding Tanks: For monitoring collected wastewater levels before processing.

 

Installation & Maintenance:

Installation: Mount the unit directly to the tank’s upper and lower connections. Make sure the valves are oriented correctly for proper function.
Maintenance: Periodically clean the glass surface. Check the internal safety check balls to confirm they move freely.

FAQ :

Q: What happens if the glass breaks?

A: The self-closing valves at the top and bottom will instantly and automatically shut. This prevents the tank’s contents from spilling out.

Q: Does it require any power to work?

A: No. The level indication and the safety self-closing function are both purely mechanical.
