This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air and Dirt Separator, Model 4903AD, is a highly efficient device designed to remove air and dirt from hydronic systems. With a flanged connection size of 3 inches and a maximum working pressure of 150 psi, this separator is built to handle the demands of large commercial applications. The primary secondary air (psa) compatibility ensures that the separator can be used in both primary and secondary loop systems. The separator works by utilizing centrifugal force to remove air and dirt particles from the system fluid. As the fluid enters the separator, it is forced to change direction, causing any air or dirt particles to be separated from the fluid and collected in a removable chamber at the bottom of the unit. This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air and Dirt Separator is an essential component for maintaining optimal performance in hydronic systems.
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.
