A dirt separator with a magnet takes care of the quality of drinking and operating water

This category includes magnetic dirt separators designed to remove particulate matter and ferromagnetic impurities from water and glycol-based systems. These devices are commonly used in heating, air conditioning, and industrial systems to maintain fluid quality and prevent blockages or damage to equipment. They are suitable for closed-loop systems and can be installed in both horizontal and vertical pipe configurations.

The units feature technopolymer bodies and are available in sizes such as 3/4" and 1" with various connection types including male, female, and flanged fittings. They are ideal for installation in front of pumps and under boilers to ensure optimal performance and ease of maintenance.

How to choose

• Connection size and type: Select the appropriate size (e.g., 3/4", 1", or 1 1/2") and thread type (e.g., M, F, FF) to match the system piping.
• Material compatibility: Choose technopolymer models for systems requiring resistance to temperature fluctuations and chemical exposure.
• Installation location: Ensure the unit is installed in front of the pump and in a vertical position for effective dirt collection.
• Operating conditions: Confirm the device is suitable for the expected temperature range (0 to 90°C) and flow rate (1.2 m/s).
• Maintenance access: Consider models with removable magnetic rings and accessible drain valves for regular cleaning.

Frequently asked questions

Can a dirt separator be installed in a vertical pipe?
Yes, the Caleffi Dirtmag can be installed in both horizontal and vertical pipes, provided the body remains in a vertical orientation during operation.

How often should the magnetic ring be cleaned?
Cleaning frequency depends on the system's dirt load, but the large internal volume and efficient separation reduce the need for frequent maintenance.
