What is an Air & Dirt Separator?
An air and dirt separator is a critical plant room component installed in hydronic heating and cooling systems. It continuously filters out unwanted microbubbles and system debris from the circulating fluid. Without separation, trapped air causes pump cavitation, noisy pipes, and accelerated internal corrosion, while loose sediment blocks valves and reduces heat transfer efficiency.
Why choose Rapidvent Separator?
- The Rapidvent separator maximizes commercial HVAC performance and extends equipment lifespan through an efficient mechanical separation process:
- High-Efficiency Microbubble Brush: Inside the cylindrical body, a specialised brush component breaks the water pressure flow. This forces microbubbles to separate, rise to the top, and automatically vent out without needing manual intervention.
- Heavy-Duty Sediment Collection: As fluid passes through, heavy dirt particles lose velocity and drop safely into the bottom collection chamber, preventing system blockages.
- Zero-Downtime Maintenance: System flushing is incredibly straightforward. Debris can be periodically released via the included drain valve without shutting down the system.
- Commercial Grade Build: Engineered for demanding environments, it features robust Flanged PN16 connections, a 10 Bar maximum working pressure, and a high temperature threshold of up to 110°C.
Key Product Features
- Microbubble Brush Technology: Internal brush design slows fluid flow to actively force trapped air bubbles to the surface.
- Automatic Air Venting: Automatically releases separated gasses continuously without any manual intervention or system downtime.
- Integrated Drain Valve: Built-in collection chamber valve allows fast sediment flushing during quick, routine servicing.
- Flanged PN16 Connections: Heavy-duty, industry-standard flanged inlets and outlets ensure secure installation on large commercial lines.
- High-Spec Tolerances: Engineered to reliably handle severe conditions up to 10 Bar working pressure and 110°C fluid temperatures.
- Scalable Commercial Sizing: Stocked in versatile industrial dimensions ranging from 50mm up to 200mm to match massive system requirements.
