Function
In heating and chilled water systems, the circulation of water containing
impurities may result in rapid wear and damage to components such
as pumps and control valves. It also causes blockages in heat
exchangers, heating elements and pipes, resulting in lower thermal
efficiency within the system.
The dirt separator separates off these dirt particles, circulating
within the closed circuit system. These particles are collected in a
large chamber, requiring infrequent cleaning, which requires simply
removing the magnet ring and opening the large drain valve while
the system is running. This device is capable of efficiently removing
particles to a very small size, with very low pressure head loss.
The DIRTMAG
®
magnetic dirt separator removes both ferrous and
non-ferrous impurities continuously, featuring a powerful removable
external magnet around the body that removes up to 100% of the
ferrous impurities, including magnetite, that can form in a hydronic
system. The DIRTMAG
®
has 2½ times the removal performance of
a standard dirt separator. The body of the NA5453 series separator
is made of glass reinforced nylon specifically designed for use in
heating and cooling systems. It also is especially versatile as it can be
installed on either horizontal or vertical piping with the rotating brass
base mount.
The NA5453 series is available with conventional union NPT and union
sweat connections and the Presscon™ press copper tail-piece with
union nut that makes installation and maintenance fast, easy and
efficient. Special slots in the EPDM O-ring allows fluid to leak during
system testing if unpressed and provide a perfect leak proof seal
when completely pressed. Also, models are available with isolation
inlet and outlet shutoff valves, which can be used as a dosing point to
inject chemical additives into the hydronic circuit.
