    The document describes Wessels Severe Service stainless steel air separators for use in heating, cooling, and potable water systems. The air separators eliminate air from the systems using a vortex design that allows heavier water to move to the outer edges while entrapped air rises to be released. The separators come in various sizes from 2 to 24 inches with maximum flow rates ranging from 56 to 17,000 gallons per minute. They are constructed of 304 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in demanding applications.

    SEVERE SERVICE STAINLESS STEEL AIR SEPARATORS SPA 2-SS TO SPA 24-SS

    SPASS-110
    5/03

    DESCRIPTION Wessels Severe Service SPA Vortex type Air Separators are designed for systems that require more corrosive resistance than standard carbon steel. SPA separators eliminate air quickly and efficiently from open and closed loop heating/cooling, and potable water systems. Water enters and exits through unique "tangential" connections, which promote a low velocity swirling effect in the center of the unit. Natural centrifugal forces allow the heavier air-free water to move towards the outer edges while entrained air is captured within the eye of the vortex and released out the top of the separator. The water then exits near the bottom of the unit, bubble free, protecting the system against the noise, corrosion, and damage commonly caused by entrained air.
