This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air and Dirt Separator, Model 4906ADHR, is a high-velocity separator designed to remove air and dirt from hydronic systems. The removable top cover makes it easy to service and maintain, while the 6" flanged connection ensures secure installation. With a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi, this separator can handle high-pressure systems with ease. The separator works by utilizing centrifugal force to remove air and dirt particles from the system's water flow. As water enters the separator, it is forced into a spiral motion, which causes heavier particles to settle at the bottom of the unit. Meanwhile, lighter particles are carried up and out of the system through an air vent. Overall, this Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air and Dirt Separator is an efficient solution for maintaining clean hydronic systems in commercial settings.
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.
