This Taco 5900 Series FlexBalance Plus Air and Dirt Separator, Model 5905P, is a highly efficient component for hydronic systems. It works by removing air and dirt particles from the system, which can cause damage to pumps and valves if left unchecked. The separator uses a patented coalescing medium to remove air bubbles as small as 15 microns, while also capturing dirt particles up to 52 microns in size. This model features a 5" flanged connection and is rated for a maximum pressure of 150 psi. The separator's design allows for easy installation and maintenance, with a removable cover plate for quick access to the coalescing medium. With the Taco 5900 Series FlexBalance Plus Air and Dirt Separator, hydronic systems can operate more efficiently and with less risk of damage from air or dirt buildup.
5900 Series Overview
The Taco patented 5900 Series FlexBalance Air Separator acts as a hydraulic bridge between the primary and secondary heating and cooling applications to improve system energy efficiency and allow smaller pumps for each system circuit. The 5900 Series FlexBalance Air Separator helps prevent hydraulic coupling of pumps or pumps in series by primary/secondary configurations and prevent unanticipated ghost-flows caused by oversized pumps in primary and secondary circuits. They are available with optional 304SS PALL ring basket configurations to enhance the air and dirt separation capabilities of the 5900. 5900 Series FlexBalance Air Separator Tanks are designed, constructed, and tested to ASME Section VIII, Div. 1 requirements.
