Air Dirt Separator

Every hydronic system accumulates two enemies over time: free air and suspended particulate. Free air generates noise, causes localised corrosion, and starves terminal units of flow. Suspended dirt — magnetite, pipe scale, weld slag, and general system debris — migrates to pumps, control valves, and heat exchangers, eroding internals and blocking strainers. Installing a high-performance separator at the point of lowest velocity in the primary circuit is the single most cost-effective measure an MEP engineer can take to protect long-term HVAC performance.

We supply the Flamco Flamcovent Smart range of combined air and dirt separators — compact, inline units that simultaneously capture free micro-bubbles and collect fine particulate in a removable dirt chamber, without requiring a system shutdown to clean.

Benefits / Features

• Removes both free air and suspended particulate in a single inline unit
• Protects pumps, control valves, and plate heat exchangers from abrasive wear
• Automatic float-type air vent vents micro-bubbles continuously without manual intervention
• Dirt collection chamber flushed under pressure — no system shutdown required
• Magnetic dirt insert option captures magnetite from system corrosion
• Compatible with glycol-treated systems
