Flamco brings you the newest development in the area of air and dirt separation:
These air and dirt separators with Compressed Particle Extractor technology removes even the smallest microbubbles and minuscule dirt particles from the system water. They are practically maintenance-free and their flow resistance is negligibly low. The magnetite particles present in the water are directly attracted by the magnetic field and all other dirt particles are also extracted extremely efficiently.
The Flamcovent Smart, Flamco Clean Smart and Flamcovent Clean Smart air and dirt separators are smart products in every aspect. As with other innovations from Flamco, their ground-breaking new design also delivers optimal performance. These air and dirt separators for heating and cooling systems are the new standard.
Flamco Smart performs 60% better than conventional air and dirt separators whilst the flow resistance has been reduced to a negligible level. This avoids wear to the pump of the central heating boiler and reduces energy costs.
The new air and dirt separators from Flamco are supplied in various connection types and sizes, with maximum working pressures of 10, 16 or 25 bar. Available with* or without insulation.
* for heated systems only.
The separation element combined with the return flow
ensures excellent air and dirt separation and at the
same time saves energy because of the negligible flow
resistance. An exceptional rate of at least 40% of the
air and dirt is separated per cycle while using only
10% extraction of the main flow. Inside the chamber of the separator the water velocity is heavily reduced down to less than 1% of the main flow. This efficiently separates microbubbles and dirt particles by allowing the air particles to automatically rise to the air release valve at the top and the dirt particles to sink to the bottom to the dirt collector. A supermagnet additionally contributes in trapping ferrous particles.
Two thrust functions ensure efficient dirt removal and deaeration of the system water
Fig. A: The first function is achieved by the separating element in the path of the main flow through the unit, diverting contaminated water into the entrapment chamber.
Fig. B: The second effect is achieved by bringing back the clean return flow of water in the centre, upstream of the
separating element. This forces the microbubbles and dirt particles present in the main flow outwards and into the
chambers of the separator to be removed.

An important feature of the latest generation of air and dirt separators is that they can be incorporated in a variety of heating and cooling systems and in every desired pipe direction. The compact dimensions of the Flamcovent Smart series enables them to be easily installed even when space is limited.
The low-maintenance characteristic of the air and dirt separators is a great advantage. The latest technology ensures extended periods between necessary maintenance. A label can be affixed to the handle of the drain valve that makes it simple to show when maintenance was last performed.
The absence of obstructions in the main flow ensures
that clogging or blockage is prevented which
guarantees superior and continuous operation over its
service life. Moreover, this feature also considerably
prolongs the service life of the product.
