This Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator, Model 49025AHTR, is a high-velocity device designed to remove air from hydronic heating and cooling systems. The separator features a removable top cover and a 2.5" threaded connection for easy installation and maintenance. With a maximum operating pressure of 125 psi, the separator efficiently removes air bubbles from the system, improving its performance and preventing damage to pumps, valves, and other components. As water flows through the separator, the air rises to the top and is vented out of the system through an automatic air vent. This process ensures that only water circulates in the system, reducing noise levels and increasing energy efficiency. The Taco 4900 Series Commercial Air Separator is an essential component for any hydronic heating or cooling system that requires optimal performance and reliability.
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.
