CALEFFI 5463AM DIRTMAG PRO Dirt Separator with Dual Magnetic Fields
Application
In hydronic systems, the circulation of water containing impurities may result
in rapid wear and damage to components such as pumps and control valves. These
impurities also cause blockages in the heat exchangers, heating elements and
pipes, resulting in a lower thermal efficiency within the system. DIRTMAG® PRO
removes both ferrous andnon-ferrous dirt particles from the fluid, collecting
them in a large collection chamber, from which they can be drained. This
device is capable of efficiently removing even the smallest particles, with
extremely limited head loss.
The DIRTMAG PRO dirt separator with dual magnet fields extends the Caleffi
dirt separator family by adding a powerful neodymium magnetic pull rod inside
a drywell inserted into the top of the body within the flow stream. The
additional magnetic flux increases the speed of magnetite (ferrous impurities)
removal from the hydronic fluid for maximum protection.
Insulation shells are available separately.
Typical Specification
Furnish and install on the plans and describing herein, a DIRTMAG PRO dirt separator with dual magnets, as manufactured by Caleffi. Each separator must be designed with a brass body and dirt collection chamber. The dirt separator must include a glass-reinforced nylon PA66G30 internal mesh element, removable for cleaning, peroxide-cured EPDM hydraulic seal, brass drain valve with ¾” garden hose connection. Equipped with top mounted dry-well with magnetic pull rod, neodymium rare-earth, in primary flow path, and a removable external magnetic collar surrounding the large collection chamber, neodymium rare- earth. Each separator has 150 psi (10 bar) maximum working pressure and 32 – 250°F (0 – 120°C) operating temperature range. Particle separation capacity: to 5 μm (0.2 mil). Ferrous impurities separation efficiency: up to 100% removal. Provide with pre-formed insulation shell, available separately for field installation Each valve shall be Caleffi model 5463AM series or approved equal. (See product instructions for specific installation information.)
