1 DESCRIPTION

The Yarway Color-Port
assembly is used to determine water level in
pressure containing vessels. It consists of the
following major components:
1.1 Gauge assembly - The basic Color-Port
gauge assembly (Figure 1) consists of a
trapezoidal stainless steel body with non-
parallel front and back faces to which are
attached individual covers holding the port
assemblies.
1.2 Tie-bar – Includes upper and lower Welbloc
gauge valves which provide isolation of the
gauge for servicing, and a connection for
draining of the gauge.
1.3 Illuminator - A device that provides a light
source via LEDs and color discernible
viewing. Red and green light (via the LED
illuminator) enter the gauge. Because of
the difference in index of refraction of water
and steam, only the color corresponding to
the contents of the gauge can pass through
and be seen. Green indicates water and red
indicates steam.
