The versatile DIRTMAG
®
magnetic dirt
separator removes both magnetic and non-
magnetic particles continuously. In addition
to removing sand and rust is ferrous with a
glass-reinforced nylon internal element in a
low-velocity-zone chamber, the DIRTMAG
®
features a powerful removable external
magnet around the body below the flow
line for fast and effective capture of ferrous
particles. The DIRTMAG
®
has the magnet
positioned externally to maintain low pressure
loss, and removes up to 95% of the ferrous
oxide particles that can form in a hydronic
system.
The DIRTMAG
®
can be fitted with optional
insulated covers, code CBN5462xx series
purchased separately, to minimize heat loss.
Insulation shell fits DIRTCAL
®
5462 and
DIRTMAG
®
5463 series.
Labels included for field installation to
externally identify product use.

The dirt separating action performed by the DIRTCAL
®
is based on using
the internal element with concentric diamond pattern mesh surfaces
instead of a mechanical filter. The element offers little resistance to the
medium flow while ensuring dirt separation. This occurs due to the
particles colliding with the concentric diamond pattern mesh surfaces
and then settling to the bottom, and not by filtration; which, over time,
gets continuously clogged. By contrast, the DIRTCAL
®
low-velocity-
zone dirt separator requiring a pressure drop 25% or less that of a
comparable Y-strainer depending on mesh size and amount of filtered
debris and efficiently removes the particles to as small as 5 μm (0.2 mil)
with very low head loss. The dirt collection chamber at the bottom of the
DIRTCAL
®
is at the optimal distance from the inlet and outlet connections
that the collected dirt particles are not affected by the swirling flow
through the mesh element. The dirt can then be removed through the
bottom drain port even with the system running, by opening the drain valve.
LoV head losses and perEormanBe are mainSained oUer Sime.
