End-User Benefits

  • Protection of system equipment such as boilers, pumps, pipework, sensors/controls etc.
  • Reduced maintenance costs
  • Improved heat transfer, heat output and efficiency
  • Reduced carbon emissions
  • Gas savings = reduced heating bills
  • Extended component and system life

"It’s clear to me that these filters are definitely a necessity for any hydronic heating system, whether it be old or new"

Steve Mulligan, Technical Trainer at Sweeney Rogers Geraghty Inc.

Technical Specifications

Casing

  • Material: 304L Stainless Steel
  • Volume Gallons (approx): 2" = 1.3 / 3" = 1.7 / 4" = 2
  • Flow configuration: In-line
  • Seals: EPDM Flange gaskets
  • Drain point thread: ¾'' NPT
  • Maximum working pressure: 10 Bar
  • Maximum working temperature: 212°F
  • Air vent: 3/8" automatic air vent

Magnet Assembly

  • Casing: Glass reinforced nylon
  • Magnets - type: Neodymium
  • Magnets - number of: 2" = 48 / 3" = 64 / 4" = 80
  • Magnets - dimensions: 3/4'' Dia x ½'' Thk

Flow Flange ANSI

  • Flange diameter: 2" = (6'') / 3" = (7½'') / 4" = (9'')
  • Flange thickness: 2" = (3/4'') / 3" = (1'') / 4" = (1'')
  • Flange type ANSI: B16.5 Class 150
  • Bolt size: (5/8'')
  • Bolt quantity: 2" = 4 / 3" = 8 / 3" = 8
  • Bolt hole PCD: 2" = (4¾'') / 3" = (6'') / 4" = (7½'')

Approvals

  • ASME: ASME VIII DIVISION 1-2017
  • Weight ( lbs ) ASME/CRN: 2" = 24.5 / 3" = 36.2 / 4" = 46.1

Features and Install Benefits

  • Construction conforms to ASME standards and is CRN approved
  • Unique external magnetic belt for easier servicing and cleaning - no contact with magnetite
  • Spring-loaded magnets ensure magnets align properly with canister, maximizing capture. 48 magnets in 2"; 64 in 3"; 80 in 4"!
  • Installs vertically or horizontally to fit any system type without incurring additional material costs
  • Suitable for both side stream and in-line installations
  • Larger canister than pipe size = water spends longer in canister = more time for magnetite to be captured. Reduction in flow = less magnetite wash-off
  • Only 6" servicing clearance - suitable for mechanical rooms with limited space
  • Press-fit installation - suitable for new installs and retrofits
  • Lightweight = one-man lifting and installation = reduced labor costs
  • Virtually zero pressure drop
  • Allows specifiers to deliver more competitive quotes, and engineers to meet spec at a more affordable cost
