MODEL KMR, KMT, KHR, AND KHT FLAT GLASS GAUGES
INSTALLATION / OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Kenco Flat Glass Gauges are simple, rugged instruments engineered and constructed throughout to give you accurate
liquid level readings for the life of the vessel. We offer a complete range of gauges suitable for most applications. Like
any instrument, Kenco flat glass gauges must be installed, operated, and maintained with reasonable care and due regard
for the application, and the environment, if they are to give accurate readings over a long life.
This instruction sheet covers medium and high pressure gauges, as well as, large chamber gauges. Weld Pad gauges
are covered in a separate instruction sheet. Contact Kenco if you need the Weld Pad sheet.
INSPECTION & DELIVERY
Upon receiving the gauge, check all components carefully for damage incurred in shipping. Notify the shipping company
immediately of any such damage, and request a damage inspection. Confirm that the gauge model number and
pressure/temperature ratings (located on the nameplate) match the application conditions. Also, confirm that the gauge
materials are compatible with the process media and the environmental conditions around the gauge.
