The viewfinder glass is broken. What’s the reason?

Thread Content

There is a device equipped with viewports, and the glass of one of those viewports is broken. About 5 to 6 of the sight glass panes are broken. It’s not clear what the reason is. Everyone, please help me analyze it so I can make improvements.

Glass cannot withstand high temperatures; Increased pressure causes the glass to break ; Impact by external objects, etc

Please be more specific about the operating conditions! :o

Operating conditions: Fermentation broth, temperature ~120°C, pressure ~0.8 MPa. Equipped with a stirring device, rotating speed of 25–30 revolutions per minute.

Has someone gone to check the mirror bolts?

It seems to be related to temperature or the medium; I’ve never encountered such a medium. It’s best to attach a photo of the window material, so everyone can help analyze the reason. And are window breaks also caused by the same equipment and the same medium?

Too little information is provided about the working medium; analysis is not possible

What about changes in temperature difference? ......

Did the new sight glass break, or was it one that had been in use for a long time that broke? Has the mirror area been moved recently? Apart from the medium operating conditions, I also agree with what was said above regarding the problem with the tightness of the bolts on the sight glass
