Vortex Separator

Gem Equipments Limited, is a world class manufacturer and an ISO 9001 certified company successfully engaged in producing innovative products, viz., compressed air dryers and accessories, cooling towers, chilling plants, dry coolers, etc., to serve the industrial needs. The easiest and permanent solution for the moisture removal problem is the provision of a vortex separator, an innovative technology product from Gem Equipments, which is also very effective. The moist air after entering the vortex separator hits the shell and then passes through the vortex generator, which generates the vortex motion of compressed air. The vortex generator is a fixed one and has number of vanes. These vanes separate the moisture droplets by impingement separation method. Due to the density, the moisture droplets settle down into the dead zone below the arrestor. The moisture free air is let out through the inner shell of the separator. The arrestor will not allow the compressed air to carry the removed moisture. An automatic drain valve (float type) is fitted to the dead zone, which drains the moisture condensate. A sight glass is provided for visually checking the level of moisture collected in the dead zone. Gem vortex separator is designed for 99% effective moisture separation with the least possible pressure drop. A range of vortex separators is available from the capacity of 100 cfm to 1000 cfm with pressure up to 16 bar (g).
