Danfoss SGP 10 N Sight Glass & Moisture Indicator | 10 mm Flare | 014L0162
Product Description: The SGP 10 N (014L0162) is built to handle the rigorous demands of modern cooling systems. In the UAE—where the shift to high-pressure refrigerants like R410A and R32 is widespread—the SGP’s 52-bar pressure rating provides an essential margin of safety. The “N” designation indicates it is equipped with a sensitive moisture indicator that changes color from green to yellow. In the intense Middle Eastern heat, moisture in the system can lead to oil acidification; this sight glass allows for early detection before costly compressor damage occurs. The 10 mm flare connections are ideal for UAE service applications where a quick, reliable mechanical joint is required without the need for brazing on-site.
Key Features & Benefits:
- High-Pressure Reliability: Rated for a maximum working pressure of 52 bar, making it perfectly suited for R410A and R32 systems across the Emirates.
- Dual-Action Indicator: Monitors both the physical state of the refrigerant (bubbles/flash gas) and its moisture content (via the color-changing indicator).
- Easy Flare Installation: The 10 mm flare ends allow for fast field replacements, reducing system downtime for UAE commercial businesses.
- Robust Construction: Engineered to resist the corrosive effects of humid and saline coastal air found in Dubai and the Northern Emirates.
- Reversible Indicator: The moisture indicator is reversible, returning to green once moisture has been successfully removed by a filter drier.

FAQs:
- Q: Can I use this with 3/8 inch flare nuts?
- A: 10 mm is very close to 3/8 inch, but for a leak-proof seal in high-pressure UAE systems, it is critical to use the metric 10 mm flared tubing and nuts specifically.
- Q: Is the glass resistant to cleaning chemicals?
- A: Yes, the high-quality glass is designed to stay clear and resist the typical oils and chemicals found in UAE HVAC maintenance.
- Q: Where is the best place to install the SGP 10 N?
- A: Install it in the liquid line, immediately after the filter drier, to confirm the refrigerant is dry and fully condensed before entering the expansion valve.
