Principle
Bi-colour
gauge is in fact a transparent gauge with
its liquid chamber in a wedge shape section
and fitted on a rear side with an
illuminator. Immediately in front of the
light source in the illuminator, two colour
filters-one red and one green are fitted.
The optical separation of steam and water
space is based on the differential
refraction of light in steam and
water.

When
a red light ray enters the water, it is
deflected side wards and absorbed. When it
enters the steam space, it passes through
unhindered and appears in the indication as
"red". Light rays which pass
through the green filter are absorbed in the
steam space but pass through water space
unhindered and the water is seen as
"green".

to 2610 psig (180 bar) Above 1015 psig
(Above 70 bar) round glasses with circular
port opening on liquid chamber is
