Composed of "clamshell" halves consisting of a carbon or stainless-steel pressure chamber within an aluminum casting, this heating jacket allows direct observation of high-temperature or temperature-sensitive process fluids without creating a cold spot on temperature-controlled process piping. This new jacket fits directly on the manufacturer’s standard view-thru visual flow indicator, exposing only the small area of the indicator’s viewing port to ambient temperature. Tested in accordance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Sec. VIII, Div. 1 standards, the jackets are capable of maintaining operating temperatures up to 750°F. Heating media ranges from hot water to steam to hot oil and vapors. — LJ Star Inc., Twinsburg, Ohio
