Air trapped inside a central heating installation leads to a reduced emission of heat and has harmful consequences both for the installation as a whole as well as for the individual components. In order to prevent these problems or to solve them it is important to install good venting equipment. In the case of Flamco you can choose from four possibilities.

First of all, there are the Flexvent floatvents intended chiefly for local venting. For effective total de-aeration of the entire installation you can use a Flamcovent air separator. Its operation is based on a proven method from the process industry to separate gases (air) from liquids (water). Thanks to Flamcovent air separators, this unique method can now also be employed for the ideal venting of any heating or cooling system. Giving the best possible results. Alternatively, you can also make use of Flexair air separators. Their operation is based on the principle of the centrifuge and they are particularly effective at higher water velocities. 

Flamco Pressure Step Degasser

The PSD is a differential pressure de-aeration unit (Pressure Step Degasser).

System fluid is sampled from the system, isolated and subjected to a full vacuum.

All dissolved air within the sample is liberated, in accordance with Henry’s Law and vented to atmosphere.

The de-aerated fluid is then reintroduced to the system.

This process is automatically repeated and controlled with a digital processor.

A turbo mode is available for initial system setup, to allow for rapid de-aeration of new installations.

The real-time display shows the status of the mechanical components.

A common alarm volt free contact is included within the PSD control unit for remote indication of a fault.
