Sight glass, type SG and SGP
Functions
The moisture indicators consist of a sensitive element that changes colour, from green to yellow, according to the
moisture content PPM in the system.
The values under “green/dry” are to be considered as perfect condition meaning full protection against harmful
effects from moisture.
If the green color starts to fade, the moisture content is reaching a critical level.
If the color changes to yellow it is a clear signal, that the capacity of the filter driers is exceeded and should be
replaced as soon as possible.
If the operating conditions of the system are normal, the refrigerant fluid appears liquid through the glass of the
indicator. The presence of bubbles indicates that lack of subcooling and the refrigerant deficiency.
At start-up, the colour of the sensitive element may be yellow, due to exposure to air humidity or due to moisture in
the circuit. When the moisture of the refrigerant is returned to acceptable levels by the filter drier, the indicator
colour turns green again. This is evidence that equilibrium has been re-established. If the yellow colour persists,
measures must be taken to eliminate moisture. Only when the sensitive element turns green again, is there
evidence that measures adopted were effective.
Applications
NOTE:
When storing, transporting or installing the Sight Glass, avoid the chemical indicator to get in contact with non-
refrigerant medium or fluid (like water, oil, ect.)
Media
NOTE:
• For a complete list of approved refrigerants, visit store.danfoss.com and search for individual code numbers, where
refrigerants are listed as part of product details.
• Flare/Face seal/socket connections are only approved for A1 and A2L refrigerants. This product is approved for
R290, R32, R452B, R454B, R454C, R455A, R600, R600a, R1234ze(E), R1234yf, R1270 by ignition source assessment in
accordance to standard EN ISO 80079-36.
• SG/SGP with indicator is not suitable for oil line application. For detailed information please contact Danfoss.
• Socket type can be used with refrigerant R744 (CO2 ) except for the version with float ball.
• Socket type can be used with refrigerant R1233zd(E) except for the version with gasket.
• For the Max. media temperature which is above 55 °C /131 °F for socket type with float ball, please consult
Danfoss.
For the application use with R744 as part of a secondary loop or cascade:
1. The design pressure of the refrigerant containing component is not less than the design pressure of the
associated components.
2. The component is not provided with any pressure relief or pressure regulating relief valve and that a sufficient
number of valves having capacity deemed adequate shall be field-installed on the refrigeration system.
3. When the refrigeration system is de-energized, venting of R744 may occur through the pressure regulating relief
valves, and may need to be recharged, but the valve should not be defeated or bypassed.
4. A sufficient number of pressure relief and pressure regulating valves may need to be provided based upon
system capacity and located such that no stop valve is provided between the relief valve and the parts or section
of the system being protected.
