The Challenge: Reliable Flow Monitoring in Harsh Conditions
In the energy sector, maintaining operational efficiency and safety is paramount. Whether in oil & gas processing, refining, power generation, or chemical manufacturing, engineers need reliable methods to monitor flow conditions in pipelines and process systems.
One of the key challenges in these industries is ensuring clear, real-time visibility of liquid, gas, or slurry movement—especially in high-pressure, high-temperature, or corrosive environments. Traditional sight flow indicators often suffer from limited visibility, pressure drops, or compatibility issues with stringent ASME and industry regulations. Engineers require a durable, compliant, and obstruction-free solution that minimizes downtime and ensures full process transparency.
The Solution: Jacoby-Tarbox Flanged Sight Flow Indicators
A leading Combined Cycle Power Plant in the Northeast U.S. recently installed a Jacoby-Tarbox Flanged Sight Flow Indicator to monitor turbine and generator lube oil cooling water service. The decision to use Jacoby-Tarbox products was driven by their:
✅ ASME Compliance – Engineered per ASME B31.1 & B31.3 Power & Chemical Piping Codes.
✅ Full Bore Visibility – Maximized pipeline view with an unobstructed diameter equal to the nominal pipe size, ensuring 100% process observation.
✅ Minimal Pressure Drop – Non-rotor models maintain smooth, full-bore construction to reduce flow restrictions.
✅ High-Durability Construction – Built with ASTM-listed metals, tempered borosilicate glass, and stainless steel engraved identification faceplates.
✅ Industry-Proven Performance – Designed for use in refining, chemical processing, power plants, and other demanding industrial applications.
By incorporating Jacoby-Tarbox sight flow indicators, the power plant was able to enhance visibility, improve system reliability, and ensure compliance with stringent pipeline standards.
