549 Series With Flanged Connections
Application
The Caleffi HYDROCAL™ combination air, dirt and hydro separator is a device that
incorporates high performance air and dirt removal functionality into the hydro
separation function which makes the primary and secondary circuits connected to it
hydraulically independent, and can be used on hot or chilled water systems. The
HYDROCAL product line combines an inert, glass-reinforced, nylon fiber mesh (not
copper) coalescing material to continuously and automatically eliminate air
microbubbles, with a proven stainless steel internal element to simultaneously remove
dirt particles as tiny as 5 microns. The air discharge capacity is very high, with the
capability of automatically removing all the air present in the system down to the
micro-bubble level.
Typical Specification
Furnish and install on the plans and described herein, a Caleffi HYDROCAL as
manufactured by Caleffi. Each separator must be designed with an epoxy resin
painted steel body, a brass blowdown drain valve and automatic brass air vent with
brass shutoff valve. The separator must include ANSI B16.5 Class 150 RF Flanges.
Each separator shall be Caleffi model 549 or approved equal.
(See product instructions for specific installation information.)

Flow Capacity
Hydraulic characteristics
The HYDROCAL should be sized according to the maximum
flow rate at the inlet. The selected design value must be the
greatest between the primary circuit and the secondary circuit.
