Armstrong's line
of Dirt & Air Separators (DAS) are designed to eliminate entrained
air and suspended dirt particles associated with the start-up and maintenance
of hydronic systems. The units incorporate a robust stainless steel
coalescing medium which directs dirt particles of all sizes to the collection
chamber at the bottom, and allows the air to be released through an
air vent at the top.
For applications
with high pipe velocity and flow, Armstrong's DASH (High Velocity) unit
allows increased flow capacity for the same connection size.
The DAS Series is
available with either a welded or removable head, both of which conform
to ASME Section VIII, Div. 1. The welded head design is also available,
for a price reduction, as a non-ASME rated unit. All models are available
with NPT connections up to 4".
- Air and dirt
removed with one unit
- Decreased corrosion,
pump cavitation and wear of system components
- Bypass/isolation
valves, filters and other flow reducing components eliminated
- Less maintenance
- Greater owner
satisfaction
- Robust stainless
steel coalescing medium
ASME rated units as standard
- High pressure
units and larger than 12" connection sizes available upon request
- Dirt particles
can be flush and air vent cleaned/replaced during system operation
- Minimal pressure
drop with no fluctuations
- Quiet operation
- Faster air removal
than vortex separators
- Velocity independent
