Check out this Jerguson Series 20™ Liquid Level Glass Gage, equipped with 77BL Safety Ballcheck Valves and Spring Washers, headed to a refinery in the Midwest. The Jerguson 70BL and 70XL Series Valves Jerguson No. 70BL and 70XL Series Valves are designed for use with flat glass gages, instrument piping, and other applications requiring a rugged, lightweight valve. Pressure and temperature ratings run to 600 lb. ANSI flange standards or manufacturer's ratings. The "lightweight

The Magnicator Indicator connects to a process vessel. The chamber, or "column," contains a sealed float with a permanent magnet assembly which rises and falls as liquid level changes in the process vessel. The permanent magnet assembly in the float is magnetically coupled to an indicator, mounted externally to the gage column but completely isolated from the process liquid. Indicator flags are rotated by the float magnet assembly as it moves up and down in the chamber, provi

Performance and reliability are what you expect in a level transmitter - but traditional magnetostrictive transmitters have long been associated with reliability issues around installation, setup, and connectivity. The Jerguson® JMT™ Series Magnetostrictive Transmitter was engineered specifically to solve this. The Problem with Traditional Magnetostrictive Transmitters Reliability issues with traditional magnetostrictive transmitters typically show up in three places: install

Check out these Jerguson® Magnicator® Magnetic Level Indicators headed to a company in Central Ohio! These Magnetic Level Indicators are equipped with SAS-16™ Snap-Action Switches. How the SAS-16 Snap-Action Mechanism Works The switch mechanism is based on a unique Jerguson tri-magnet design, where the snap action is accomplished through magnetic repulsion. The magnet mounted in the float causes a secondary magnet to rotate as the float passes up and down. The switch magnet i

Choosing between a reflex and transparent gage is one of the most fundamental decisions in specifying level indication - and the right choice depends entirely on what your application actually needs to show you. Reflex Level Gages: Clean Total Level Indication Jerguson® Reflex Level Gages are ideal for clean total level indication applications for refining, petrochemical, and general use applications. The reflex prisms are molded and polished to provide a crisp black-silver b

The Jerguson 360 Series valve is equipped with features that elevate its performance above traditional style safety ballcheck valves - including a bypass mode designed to remove guesswork or operator error during commissioning, and a quarter-turn, visible-position handle with a locking pin to secure its position. See the Full Breakdown For the complete explanation of how the 360 Series' color indicator ring, bypass mode, and metal-seated construction work together to solve co

This tool provides on-demand product configuration and CAD downloads for Jerguson® Magnicator® Magnetic Level Indicators. This capability enhances the online digital customer experience by enabling engineers to instantly find, configure, and download product data for use within their designs. Why On-Demand CAD Downloads Matter for Engineering Workflows Specifying an MLI into a larger equipment design traditionally means requesting a CAD model from a supplier, then waiting for

Check out this Jerguson® Magnicator® with Guided Wave Radar (MGWR™) - Dual Chamber configuration, headed to a specialty products manufacturer in Louisiana. Dual Chamber vs. Single Chamber MGWR We've covered the single-chamber MGWR design elsewhere, where a slotted internal baffle plate separates the float and GWR probe within one compact chamber. The dual-chamber configuration takes a different approach: rather than sharing one chamber with an internal baffle, the Magnicator

Did you know? The LumaStar™ Illuminator - Model EPL-100 can be used on a reflex style gage. While illuminators are traditionally used as a back light on transparent style gages, they can be used on reflex style gages to provide extra lighting. Reflex vs. Transparent: Two Different Ways of Showing Level The choice between reflex and transparent gages is application based, and each shows liquid level differently. A reflex gage uses molded prisms on the process side of the glass

Check out this 8ft Jerguson® Magnicator® Magnetic Level Indicator we shipped out, cold insulated with a 3" frost-proof extension, ready to be installed on a cold separator at a cryogenic plant in Oklahoma. What Cryogenic Insulation Actually Does Cryogenic insulation helps maintain cold process temperature and creates a moisture barrier to prevent ice buildup on the chamber or other items inside of the insulation. This is a distinct function from the frost-proof extension itse

We recently had a chemical manufacturer reach out to us to retrofit their dated transmitter with one of our Jerguson® JMT™ Series Magnetostrictive Transmitters. After the install, the customer reported weak magnetic strength while testing their existing float. They decided to retrofit their entire gage to a Jerguson® Magnicator® Magnetic Level Indicator. The customer utilized our Magnicator® Quick Ship Program, receiving the new magnetic level indicator in 48 hours. How a Tra

Check out these before and after install photos of our Single Chamber Magnicator® with Guided Wave Radar (MGWR™) at an oil & gas company in Ohio. Why Before and After Matters Photos documenting an installation's actual physical transformation give facilities considering a similar upgrade a concrete sense of what changes on the vessel itself - not just a description of the technology, but what the finished installation actually looks like in place. What This Installation Deliv

We had Jerguson Product Manager - Magnetic Level Products, Robert Bolin, onsite at a major refinery in the Midwest US, giving a lunch & learn presentation on Jerguson Magnetic Level Products. Why We Do Lunch & Learns A lunch & learn puts real product expertise directly in front of the engineers, operators, and maintenance personnel who work with this equipment day to day - a different format than a webinar or a written article, since it allows direct questions and discussion

Check out our Jerguson® Magnicator® Magnetic Level Indicator installed on a skid for monitoring, measuring, and dispatching turbo jet fuel. This installation was for a skid manufacturer in Peru. The gages were inverted due to limited lower clearance - mounting them inverted allows operators to easily access the float from the top flange. How a Magnicator Actually Works The Magnicator level indicator connects to a process vessel. The chamber, or "column," contains a sealed flo

Jerguson offers a single solution technology, combining our Jerguson® Series L10™ Liquid Level Gage with your preferred Guided Wave Radar (GWR). The Problem: Surging and Boiling Fluids Jerguson Large Chamber Liquid Level Gages are designed to give an accurate liquid level reading of liquids that have a tendency to surge or boil. Standard-size gage chambers struggle with these fluids in three specific ways: Boiling effects of entrained gas being released under low pressure can

A chemical manufacturing company in Texas came to us with a specific need: replace unreliable, dated technology. They wanted their tubular boiler gage with fluorescent lighting replaced with a Jerguson® Armored Level Gage assembly featuring a Jerguson® LumaStar™ LED Illuminator (Model EPL-100). This glass gage assembly was for the facility's Waste Heat Boiler, operating at 120 PSI with a 200 PSI design condition. Two Separate Upgrades in One Project This replacement addressed

We have three Single Chamber Magnicator® with Guided Wave Radar (MGWR™) units headed to a gas processing facility here in Ohio. These MGWRs come equipped with hot insulation jackets, which cover the entire gage and include drawcords at each end for closure, with openings provided for gage process connections, indicator, and switches or transmitters. What MGWR Actually Combines By combining Guided Wave Radar (GWR) with a Magnetic Level Gage, the Magnicator Guided Wave Radar br

Check out these Jerguson® Magnicator® Magnetic Level Indicators headed to an oil and natural gas processing plant in West Texas - these indicators measure 208 inches long, over 17 feet. Why This Length Matters A 208-inch Magnicator represents serious engineering beyond a standard unit - maintaining precise manufacturing tolerances, consistent chamber alignment, and reliable magnetic coupling across more than 17 feet of length is a meaningfully different challenge than a compa
