This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator, Model 4905A, is designed to effectively remove air from hydronic heating and cooling systems. With a 5" flanged connection and a maximum pressure rating of 150 psi, this air separator is ideal for use in commercial applications. The air separator works by utilizing a coalescing medium to capture and remove microbubbles and other contaminants from the system's fluid. As the fluid flows through the air separator, any entrained air is separated and vented through the top of the unit. This process helps to improve system efficiency and prevent damage to pumps, valves, and other components. The Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator is a reliable choice for maintaining optimal performance in your hydronic system.
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.
