AIR SEPARATOR TANKS

The tangential inlet and outlet nozzles of air separators create a low velocity centrifugal force which propels the heavier "air free" condensate towards the outer edges.  The entrained air is released into the center of the swirling vortex and upwards towards the top of the vessel where it can be vented with a float style air vent.

Systems using air separators often require less chemicals for pH and corrosion control  because dissolved oxygen, carbon dioxide and other non-condensable gasses are removed from the condensate on its way to the the feed tank.
