This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator, Model 4914AR, is a high-quality product that is designed to remove unwanted air and debris from hydronic systems. Its removable top cover makes it easy to clean and maintain, while its 14" flanged connection ensures a secure and reliable installation. With a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi, this air separator can handle even the most demanding commercial applications. The Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator works by utilizing centrifugal force to remove air and debris from the system's water flow. As water enters the separator, it is redirected in a circular motion, causing heavier particles to move towards the outer edge of the separator where they can be easily removed. This innovative design ensures that hydronic systems run more efficiently and with less downtime due to maintenance issues.
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.
