Is what is inside the box in the diagram a steam trap or a pipe sight glass? Thank you

General drawings should include code (symbol) descriptions; it seems this is a sight glass

Thank you. I couldn’t find an explanation for this code in the legend, so I came to ask the experts... I also think it’s a viewfinder.

It looks like a viewfinder, but isn’t it too short?

Should the sight glass be installed vertically or horizontally?

I think it’s a sight glass, with flow direction indicators; the drain valve should have a discharge pipe

This is a sight glass; the hydrophobic valve is not depicted in this way. Refer to HG/T 20519 for guidance

In my opinion, for a drain valve to work properly, it’s necessary to have valves at both the front and back, and also a bypass line... Thank you
