Sight Flow Indicators

NAW-Series Flow Sight Glass Gauge

Threaded flow indication with a Teflon ball or rotor

NAW-Series gauges provide direct visual indication of gas or liquid flow using either a highly visible Teflon ball or a rotating impeller.

  • CE 2810Marking options available
Four labelled NAW-Series flow sight glass gauges: NAW-1 and NAW-2 in metal and plastic body models

Service and indication

  • Gas and liquid service with threaded female connections
  • NAW-1 uses a Teflon ball for horizontal flow in either direction
  • NAW-2 uses a rotor and may be installed for flow in any direction
