Spirotech BE/FM Range of Dirt Separators with Magnet, Standard Flow - Magnet units up to 1.5 mtrs/sec velocity

All Air & Dirt Separators must create the correct environment to be able to work efficiently. The Spirotech brand uses a separation element constructed of spirally wound copper wire around a central copper core. This arrangement creates an area of laminar flow (static water) at the base of the unit enabling even the smallest of Dirt particles to settle out of the mass flow of the circulating fluid and then simply be drained away from unit. It is the only point on the system where laminar flow exists when in normal operation.

The efficiency of these units is further increased by incorporating an “Easy Clean” magnetic element in the centre of the unit that can be cleaned of all dirt "without” the requirement to isolate or take the unit off line.

However, if the flow rates are excessive the whole of the separator may become turbulent hence no laminar flow may exist, therefore it is necessary to provide some “guidance” as to the maximum flow for each size of unit. The chart below provides the required information to assist with product selection at a velocity of 1.5 mtr/sec.
