Automatic and Continuous Air Vent Operation Increases
System Efficiency. Many industrial processes involve the removal of
air/gas from a pressurized liquid. Armstrong air vents are ideally
suited for this purpose. The float-operated design means the vents can
instantly and automatically adjust to variations in gas flow and
pressure. The air vents can handle gas removal from liquids with
specific gravities as low as 0.40 and pressure to 2,700 psi (186 bar).
Armstrong air vents are available in a wide variety of sizes, end
connections and construction materials.
Applications for Armstrong float-type air vents
include hydronic heating systems, water service lines, water storage
tanks, centrifugal pumps, gas lines, solvent filters and similar
equipment. Operation is completely automatic, and the simple design and
quality mechanism make operation trouble-free and maintenance
infrequent.
Air can accumulate in remote sections of
chamber-type heat-transfer equipment such as jacketed kettles, retorts,
vulcanizers and jacketed sterilizers. Armstrong offers thermostatic air
vents for positive venting of air and other non-condensable gases in
such equipment.
