This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator, Model 4908AHR, is a high-velocity air separator designed for use in hydronic systems. It features a removable top cover and an 8" flanged connection, allowing for easy installation and maintenance. With a maximum pressure rating of 150 psi, this air separator is capable of handling high-pressure systems with ease. The unit works by separating air from the water in the system, preventing air pockets from forming and reducing noise and corrosion caused by trapped air. This helps to improve system efficiency and extend the life of system components. Overall, the Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator is a reliable and effective solution for improving the performance of 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.
