The Cal-X-Tract dirt product from Calefactio reduce the risk of damage that could be caused by impurities in the systems of heating.

They are equipped with a stainless steel coalescing media to catch the finest micro-bubbles, air and dirt particles without affecting the flow. The coalescence process  produced by the media allows air and micro-bubbles to collide and then be evacuated through the Calvent automatic vent. As for the dirt, they will merge with each other to then fall to the bottom of the separator to be drained.

Their function allowing a better energetic performance while reducing the costly maintenance frequency. Their sturdy design allows to maintain their efficiency for whole duration of the system’s lifetime.

Models with a magnet facilitate the separation and accumulation of ferrous impurities thanks to their magnetic field. Some non-ferrous particles are also captured.

OPERATION

Unlike a mesh filter that retains dirt and gradually clogs, the stainless steel bristles coalescing media included in the CalX-Tract Air & Dirt Separator do not need to be cleaned. The coalescence process produced by the media allows air and micro-bubbles to fusion and then be evacuated through the Calvent automatic vent. As for the dirt, they will merge with each other to then fall to the bottom of the separator to be drained. Models with a magnet facilitate the separation and accumulation of ferrous impurities thanks to their magnetic field.
