Caleffi NA545396 DIRTMAG Composite Dirt Separator with Magnet - 1-in Union Sweat

In heating and air conditioning control systems, the circulation of water containing impurities may result in rapid wear and damage to components such as pumps and control valves. It also causes blockages in the heat exchangers, heating elements and pipes, resulting in a lower thermal efficiency within the system. The dirt separator removes these dirt particles from the fluid, collecting them in a large collection chamber, from which they can be drained even while the system is in operation. This device is capable of efficiently removing even the smallest particles, with extremely limited head loss.

The DIRTMAG PRO dirt separator with dual magnets extends the Caleffi dirt separator family by adding a powerful neodymium magnetic stack inside a drywell inserted into the top of the body within the flow stream. Additional magnetic flux increases the speed of magnetite (ferrous impurities) removal from the hydronic fluid for maximum protection.

• Double the protection: Captures two forms of debris that can damage or shorten the life of heat exchangers, circulators, valves and polymers: ferrous debris such as magnetite, and non-ferrous debris such as copper shavings, solder, lime-scale fragments, silica and pipe compound.
• Unique dual magnetic fields: Two powerful neodymium rare-earth magnetic fields attract and capture ferrous oxide impurities and allow simple blowdown - no disassembly required.
• Concentric pattern collision media: Unique dirt collision media uses low-flow velocity, deflection and gravity to separate dirt particles as small as 5 microns from flow stream. Concentric pattern design has low flow resistance resulting in 85% less pressure drop compared to same size y-strainer.
• Fast and easy clean hands purging: Pull out the magnetic pull rod from drywell on top, unclip the external barrel magnetic collar and open the purge valve to simply release the captured magnetic impurities and purge all dirt.
• Increased power: Powerful magnetic pull rod mounted inside drywell and positioned directly in fluid flow path, external magnetic barrel collar and newly designed collision media function together to increase magnetic debris removal efficiency by 40%.
