The DISCALDIRT
®
air and dirt separator uses a coalescing element that
consists of an assembly of concentric diamond pattern mesh surfaces.
This element creates the whirling movement required to facilitate the release
of micro-bubbles and their adhesion to these surfaces. The bubbles, fusing
with each other, increase in volume until the bouyancy force overcomes the
adhesion force to the surface. They rise towards the top of the unit and are
released through a fl oat-operated automatic air release valve.
The dirt separating action performed by the same element which offers little
resistance to the medium fl ow while ensuring dirt separation. The particles
collide with the concentric diamond pattern mesh surfaces and then settle
to the bottom, and not by fi ltration unlike mesh strainers; which, over time,
get progressively clogged. By contrast, the DISCALDIRT
®
’s low-velocity-
zone dirt separator function effi ciently removes the particles to as small as
5μm (0.2 mil) with very low head loss. The dirt can then be removed through
the bottom drain port.

™
The DISCALDIRTMA&
™
air and dirt separator with
magnet uses an external magnet ring for separation of
ferrous impurities. The external magnet allows greater
effectiveness in the separation and collection of ferrous
impurities. The impurities are retained in the body of
the dirt separator by the strong magnetic fi eld created
by magnets in its external outer ring. The outer ring is
removable from the body to allow the fl ushing of sludge,
with the system still running. Since the magnetic ring
is positioned outside the body of the dirt separator, it
does not interfere with the fl ow through the device.
