  • Environmental Safety: Pressure-tight housing minimizes spill risks.
  • Efficiency: Continuous level indication without external power.
  • Electronic Control: Optional point level switches and continuous level transmitters available.
Applications:
  • Cold Service: Suitable for temperatures as low as -200°F.
  • Hot Service: Handles temperatures up to 750°F.
  • Oil/Water and Acid Applications: Compatible with various materials for safety.
Design and Customization: Customizable to meet specific application needs, adaptable for different tank configurations.
Ordering Process: Step-by-step ordering process with OrderIt! forms for custom configurations.
Technical Specifications: Includes details on miniature and standard sizes, pressure and temperature limits, connection types, and material options.
Specifications:
  • Pressure: Operating and maximum values specified.
  • Temperature: Operating and maximum values specified.
  • Liquid Media: Type must be identified.
  • Specific Gravity: Required at operating condition.
  • Viscosity: Must be provided in SSU.
  • Application Location: Specify indoor or outdoor use.
Physical Configuration:
  • Mounting Configuration Types: Options include Type AA, BA, CA, and DA.
  • Connection Codes: Choose between NPT or Flange sizes.
  • Length of Visual Indication: Maximum length is 240 inches.
  • Flag Type: Options include plastic or aluminum.
  • O-Ring Material: Options include Viton®, Ethylene Propylene, or others.
Accessories:
  • Switch Modules: Options for SPST, SPDT, DPDT 120 VAC, and DPDT 24 VDC.
  • Indicating Scales: Options include feet and inches, inches, metric, or custom graduations.
  • Continuous Transmitter: Output options include 0-5 VDC, 0-12 VDC, and 4-20 mA.
Materials and Construction:

SURESITE® LEVEL INDICATORS SureSite® Visual Liquid Level Indicators ...the safe alternative to cloudy, breakable sight glasses. High Visibility­ Brilliantly colored flags are easy to read, even at great — distances. The indicator is isolated from the measured media; therefore, SureSite Indicators can be used where sight glasses are not even a consideration. Durability—Stainless steel, PVC, CPVC, PVDF, Hastelloy or other exotic housings, whatever the media requirements, provide years of maintenance-free service. Environmentally Safe—Monitored liquid is contained inside a pressuretight housing. Engineered Plastic Efficient—Continuous level indication without external power. LEVEL INDICATORS – VISUAL Electronic Control—Attach optional point level switches and/or continuous level transmitters to extend capabilities beyond those of a simple sight glass. Low Maintenance—No glass to break, durable housings OSHA Friendly—Accident incidence reduction Reduced Workload—Quick and easy viewing shortens monitoring chores EPA Friendly—Fewer seals and no glass protect against spillage Multi-Purpose—Not single purpose as with sightglasses; can replace simple tank gauging systems as a complete level gauge package When Gems Sensors & Controls introduced SureSite® Liquid Level Indicators almost 30 years ago, no one had seen anything like them... sightglasses were the standard in liquid level indication. Well, we are happy to say that since that time SureSite Indicators have retired more sightglasses than we can count! Our success has spawned many imitators, but there is still only one SureSite Indicator with its many exclusive features, and more importantly there is no manufacturer so uniquely capable as Gems to be your sensor supplier. Fifty years of experience has taught us which technologies and product characteristics will provide the most effective solutions to your requirements. And our engineering resources have long been helping customers solve their most challenging application problems.
