This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Dirt Separator, Model 4902DT, is designed to remove dirt and debris from hydronic systems. With a threaded connection of 2 inches and a maximum pressure rating of 125 psi, this separator can handle even the most demanding commercial applications. The separator works by utilizing a patented internal element that removes dirt particles as small as 5 microns. As water flows through the separator, the heavier particles settle to the bottom where they can be easily drained away. This helps prevent clogs in system components and ensures efficient operation. The Taco 4900 Series Commercial Dirt Separator is an essential component for any hydronic system where cleanliness is critical for optimal performance.
4900 Series Overview
Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air & Dirt Separators efficiently remove air, dirt, and other contaminants from system components, enhancing efficiency and longevity. They use patented PALL ring technology to eliminate micro-bubbles and debris, while an optional magnet collects iron oxide and magnetite.
These separators also feature a vent mechanism for releasing merged micro-bubbles and a blowdown valve to dispose of dirt. The magnet, easily activated by a handle, simplifies maintenance and magnetite removal. They are suitable for systems with variable speed and constant flow.
Taco 4900 Series separators are constructed and tested to ASME Section VIII, Div. 1 standards. Their design is guided by computerized selection, tailored for each application. All manufacturing occurs in-house, ensuring quality. Independent third-party tests validate performance.
