Lumiglas®

Lumiglas – the observation of process operations taking place 

that is what lumiglas offers.

Lumiglas stands for sight and light ; for ideal visual control.

These inspections are carried out either by the process operative directly on the spot or without the need to access the plant, by means of the Lumiglas VISULEX Ex camera system. The combination of light and sight glass, created by Papenmeier- the first of many Lumiglas patents- is the ideal low cost solution for the user: the additional cut-out for a second sight port in the case of separate ports is avoided.

More security- less cost!

Lumiglas is internationally renowned and used by leading companies worldwide, particularly in explosion hazardous areas of the chemical, bio and pharmaceutical industries: mineral oil refining as well as foodstuffs and beverage industries, nuclear power plant, machine construction, electro industry, water treatment and shipbuilding.

Lumiglas means: 

Individually tailored resolution of problems; using economically attractive standard products or special designs to clients’ own specification. 

A closely woven network of agencies both in and out of the country ensures efficient customer and after sales service.

Lumistar Luminaire ASL 55-LED, aluminium

Luminaires (Non-Ex)

Product Picture: Lumistar Luminaire ASL 55-LED, aluminium

Lumistar Luminaires ASL 55-LED (aluminium) and ESL 55-LED (stainless steel)

Sight glass luminaire for universal applications; ideally suited for sight glass and light port combinations (single-flange version) and for separate  configurations (double-flange version).

Applications:

The optimum solution in the pharmaceutical and food processing industries, ideal for illuminating bioreactors, laboratory mixers and filters as well as the interiors of boilers, tanks, agitators, separators, pipes and other – usually sealed – vessels in operating environments that are not potentially explosive.

The specific advantages of Lumiglas LED technology:

  • Insensitive to vibration
  • Long service life and high operational reliability
  • Continuous operation for LED up to about 50,000 hours
  • The ideal solution wherever fittings are difficult to access
  • No heat radiation in the light port (cold light)
  • No additional heat which would be undesirable for chemical and/or biological processes
  • Extreme high-contrast lighting

Compact yet powerful:

Dazzle-free illumination; suitable for use with circular sight glass fittings to DIN28120/DIN28121 or similar, with screw-type sight glass fittings in compliance with DIN 11851, and in sight flow indicators.

Type of protection: Dust-tight and waterjet-proof, IP 65 acc. to EN 60529/
DIN VDE 0470, Part 1

Electrical data:

Convenient electrical link-up: The Lumistar luminaire is equipped with a factory-mounted screwed cable gland.

The Lumistar luminaire ASL-/ESL 55-LED is compatible with the following nominal diameters:
a) Circular sight glass fitting acc. to DIN 28120: DN 40
b) Circular sight glass fitting acc. to DIN 38121: DN 40
c) Sight glasses in flow indicators: DN 50
d) Screw-type sight glass fittings similar to DIN 11851:
– DN 50 is mounted by way of a separate flange attachment
– From DN 80 up, the unit is secured using the hinged bracket

Lumistar luminaires ASL 55-LED and ESL 55-LED have a special adapter in the light port as a standard feature, making this type of lamp ideal for applications in aseptic and sterile environments. Excellent results are assured by using sight glasses fused to a metal frame (METAGLAS®) and with the BioControl (NEUMO) range of products. METAGLAS® combines optimally with clamp fittings (METACLAMP®) as well as with NA-ConnectTM technology.

Lumiglas® Luminaires

Luminaires illuminate process vessel interiors in pharmaceutical, food processing, and chemical plants.

Choose from standard Luminaires (Non-Ex) and explosion-proof Luminaires (Ex) housings as well as halogen or LED designs.

Some applications require safe, high-intensity illumination for sight glasses, ports, or general applications in hazardous (classified) locations.

Lumiglas luminaires are available with aluminum or stainless steel construction and, depending on the size and wattage, can be equipped with momentary push button switches for safety and longevity. Remote or pneumatic timers and pushbutton switches are also available as Lumiglas light accessories. A new series of  Lumiglas LED Luminaires is now available.

In short, the luminaire is the entire device and the lamp is the specific replaceable component that produces light.

“A lamp is a light source that is placed in a luminaire!”

A light fixture (US English), light fitting (UK English), or luminaire is an electrical device used to create artificial light by use of an electric lamp. All light fixtures have a fixture body and a light socket to hold the lamp and allow for its replacement.

Sight Glass Lights

There are many considerations for selecting the optimum light to illuminate your process vessel. This online guide walks you through the steps.

Dedicated or Separate Light Port

Often process vessels have two sight glass windows: one port for viewing and a separate port for the light. The light is typically mounted directly over the light port. To save cost or space, some vessels combine light and sight at one window. The light is typically mounted with a bracket, although sight glasses are available with integrated lights (combo style). 

LED or Halogen

Traditional halogen lights use trusted incandescent light bulbs. LED lights offer brighter light, lower energy consumption, and longer life (lower maintenance costs.) Halogen light brightness is selected by wattage: 5 to 100 Watts, with 50 Watts typical. LED light brightness is selected by lumens: 1000 to 3000 lumens.

Explosion Proof or Non-Explosion Proof

Some industrial environments require explosion proof lights (ex lights) that are sealed so they cannot introduce a spark into the atmosphere. The widest selection of ex lights are halogen style, although explosion proof LED lights are also available.

Stainless Steel or Aluminum Housing

Virtually all sight glass lights use stainless steel housings. A few ex light models are available with aluminum housing, lowering their cost while removing heat more efficiently.

Available Power Supply

Most lights are available in a range of voltage options. Make sure that the model you select will work with the power you have available: 120 VAC, 24 VDC/VAC, 230 VAC, 12 VDC/VAC.
 
When deciding upon a proper luminaire for your application, be sure to consider all of the properties of the light. The size, weight, voltage, wattage, materials of construction, mounting configuration, and light pattern (Lux diagram) are all very important factors you should be aware of.
