This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator, Model 4920AHR, is designed to remove air and other impurities from hydronic heating and cooling systems. With a high velocity design and 20" flanged connection, it can handle flow rates up to 15,000 gallons per minute with a maximum working pressure of 150 psi. The removable top cover allows for easy maintenance and cleaning, while the heavy-duty construction ensures long-lasting durability. This air separator works by creating a low-velocity zone where air bubbles rise to the top and are released through an automatic vent valve. The purified fluid then exits through the bottom outlet without any air or debris present. Ideal for use in large commercial applications such as hospitals, universities, and office buildings, this Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator is an essential component for maintaining optimal system performance.
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.
