This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator, Model 4906AHG, is designed to remove air and other gases from hydronic heating and cooling systems. With a high velocity capacity of up to 125 psi, it features a 6" grooved connection for easy installation. The base ring provides stability and support during operation. As water enters the separator, it is forced to change direction, causing any air or gas bubbles to rise to the top where they can be safely vented out of the system. This innovative design ensures efficient operation and helps prevent damage to pumps, valves, and other system components caused by trapped air. Ideal for use in commercial applications such as large office buildings or industrial facilities, this Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator is a reliable choice 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.
