Function ;OL*HSLMÄ:,7™ combination hydraulic, air, dirt and magnetic separator is a device that, incorporates high performance air and magnetic and non-magnetic dirt removal functionality into the hydraulic separation function which makes the primary and secondary circuits connected to it hydraulically independent, and can be used on hot or chilled water Z`Z[LTZ;OL:,7™MLH[\YLZHU/+7,PU[LYUHSLSLTLU[[OH[JVTIPULZ to continuously and automatically eliminate air micro-bubbles with the simultaneous removal of dirt particles as tiny as 5 microns. The air discharge capacity is very high, with the capability of automatically removing all the HPYWYLZLU[PU[OLZ`Z[LTKV^U[V[OLTPJYVI\IISLSL]LS;OLPUOPNO WLYMVYTHUJLM\UJ[PVUHSP[`VM[OL:,7™ saves system installation and maintenance costs as there is no need to include separate air and dirt separators. In addition to removing sand and rust impurities, the added powerful removable external magnet around the lower body removes up to 95% of the ferrous oxide particles that can form in a hydronic system.
