Now you can customize a Jerguson Glass Gage right from your computer or phone.

Jerguson Flat Glass Gages are simple, rugged instruments engineered and built to give accurate liquid level readings for the life of the vessel. The gages' special features make them safer, easier to service, and allow them to be re-machined to extend their life.

What the Drawing Tool Does

The Jerguson Glass Gage Drawing Tool moves the gage specification process from a phone call or email exchange to a direct, self-service digital configuration - accessible from a computer or phone. Rather than waiting on a sales cycle to work through configuration options, an engineer or buyer can specify their gage directly and generate a custom drawing on their own timeline.

Why Self-Service Configuration Matters

Specifying instrumentation correctly requires working through a genuine set of variables - dimensions, connection type, pressure rating, material, and gage-specific options all need to align with the application. Traditionally, working through these variables meant a back-and-forth with a sales or applications engineer before a drawing existed to review.

A digital drawing tool changes this by putting the configuration process directly in the hands of the person who knows the application best. It doesn't replace the value of application engineering support for complex or unusual requirements, but for straightforward specification, it removes the wait between deciding what's needed and having a drawing to review.

Built on a Foundation of Serviceable Design

The gages this tool configures aren't disposable components - Jerguson Flat Glass Gages are engineered to deliver accurate readings for the life of the vessel, with features that make them safer, easier to service, and able to be re-machined to extend their service life well beyond a single glass or gasket replacement cycle. A tool that makes it faster to specify a gage in the first place is paired with equipment already engineered for a long service life once installed - the configuration speed doesn't come at the expense of the underlying instrument's durability.

Why This Matters for How Customers Work With Us

Putting a genuine configuration tool directly into customers' hands - rather than requiring every specification to route through a sales conversation - reflects a broader shift toward digital, self-service tools supporting the same application engineering expertise that's always backed Jerguson products. It's a practical example of pairing traditional engineering rigor with modern digital access.
