Danfoss SGP 12s N Sight Glass | 12 mm (1/2 in) ODF Solder

Product Description:

The Danfoss SGP 12s N (014L0183) is engineered for permanent, leak-proof installation in high-performance refrigeration lines across the UAE. Featuring 12 mm (1/2 in) ODF solder connections, it ensures a robust brazed joint that can withstand the intense thermal expansion and mechanical vibrations common in Dubai’s industrial cooling plants. The central glass port offers a clear view for technicians to verify a full liquid seal, while the sensitive “N” type indicator provides an early warning by changing color from green to yellow if moisture is detected. This is a vital safeguard in the humid UAE climate, preventing acid formation and protecting the compressor from expensive internal damage.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Permanent Solder Integrity: 1/2 inch ODF connections provide a hermetic, vibration-resistant seal for long-term reliability in the UAE.
• Instant Moisture Detection: Features a highly accurate color-coded indicator to monitor the dryness of the refrigerant in UAE systems.
• Optimized for High Pressure: Rated for a maximum working pressure of 52 bar, making it fully compatible with R410A and R32 systems in the UAE.
• Crystal Clear Diagnostics: Large visual port allows for easy detection of bubbles or flash gas during peak UAE summer loads.
• Corrosion-Resistant Construction: Made from high-grade brass to resist the saline and humid air of the UAE coastline.

FAQs:

• Q: Is the 1/2″ solder version (014L0183) better than the flare version for UAE projects?
• A: For permanent industrial installations in the UAE, the solder version is generally preferred as it eliminates the risk of leaks due to flare nuts loosening over time.
• Q: Can this sight glass handle the high pressures of R410A in Dubai?
• A: Absolutely. Its 52-bar rating is specifically designed for high-pressure modern refrigerants used in the UAE.
• Q: What does it mean if I see bubbles in the sight glass in a UAE unit?
• A: Bubbles usually indicate either a shortage of refrigerant (leak) or a restriction in the liquid line. In the UAE summer, this can lead to significantly reduced cooling capacity.
