TANGENTIAL AIR SEPARATORS

Advantages of Air Separation and Elimination

The proper application of EMERALD® Tangential Air S eparator devices will solve your “System Air” problems. These key components are necessary in the design and construction of closed circulation systems.

The EMERALD® line of tangential air separators is designed with tangential openings to create a low-velocity vortex where entrained air is separated and removed from circulation water or anti-freeze in a closed system. In addition, these tangential air separators can be supplied with a stainless strainer to collect unwanted system debris.

EMERALD® tangential air separators are ideally suited to help eliminate problems often associated with trapped systems air such as blocked terminal units, inefficient pump operation and performance, and costly corrosion and fouling of equipment.

The Keys To Efficient Air Separation And Elimination

  • Laminar Flow

  • Low Pressure drop across the air separator.

  • Recommended maximum system fluid velocity of 6 feet/second (1.83M/S).
