Function

Air separators are used to continuously remove the air contained 
in the hydronic circuits of heating and cooling systems. The air 
discharge capacity of these devices is very high. They are capable 
of removing automatically all the air present in the system down to 
micro-bubble level.

The circulation of fully de-aerated water enables the equipment to 
operate under optimum conditions, free from any noise, corrosion, 
localized overheating or mechanical damage. Micro-bubbles, fusing 
with each other, increase in volume (get larger) until they become 
large enough to rise to the top where they are automatically 
released.
