"Wright Austin TS Gas Liquid Separators for up to 60% by weight of the units flow capacity"

Wright Austin TS style air liquid separators are designed to remove 99% of all liquid droplets and solid particles greater than or equal to 10 microns in size. The TS style can handle a higher volume of entrained droplets/particles than the standard T style. Wright-Austin TS style gas/liquid separators are typically used for applications where higher than normal liquid loading causes a "slugging" problem, common to refinery and chemical plant applications. TS gas/liquid separators are used upstream of gas turbines, adsorption towers, gas scrubbers and steam generator outlets.

Moisture laden gas enters the TS style separator and is deflected downwards in a centrifugal motion. The reduction in velocity separates out the liquid, which falls below and coalesces under the patented Vortex Containment Plate (VCP). The VCP prevents reentrainment of the liquid into the gas. The resulting dry, clean gas flows upwards and exits through the outlet of the separator. Wright Austin accomplished this without complex baffles, deflectors and other structures that obstruct the flow-stream and this results in very low pressure drops.

TS style gas/liquid separators are fabricated from carbon steel, 304SS, 316SS and can also be fabricated from exotic alloys when needed.

TS style gas/liquid separators are available with ASME code stamp and CRN. All fabricated TS style gas/liquid separators are designed in New Jersey (USA) in accordance with ASME Section VIII, Division I.

"Wright Austin R Gas Liquid Separators for up to 90% by weight of the units flow capacity"

Wright Austin R style air liquid separators are designed for liquid "slugs" or heavy liquid loads where a large reservoir to satisfy liquid hold-up requirements. As with all other Wright Austin gas/liquid separators, the R style will remove 99% of all liquid droplets and solid particles greater than or equal to 10 microns in size. Wright-Austin T style gas/liquid separators are used mainly in the chemical and process industries where a large volume of liquid needs to be separated from gases; they are also used as a flash or surge tank as well as a scrubber or demister ahead of a steam turbine.

R style gas/liquid separators have a two stage process for separation. The initial stage the liquid enters the inlet and is deflected downward, losing velocity, resulting in a majority of the liquid to accumulate within the reservoir. The remaining moisture laden gas passes up through a vaned element where the remaining moisture is separated by centrifugal force, coalescing within the reservoir. The resulting dry, clean gas flows upwards and exits through the outlet of the separator. Wright Austin accomplished this without complex baffles, deflectors and other structures that obstruct the flow-stream and this results in very low pressure drops.

R style gas/liquid separators are fabricated from carbon steel, 304SS, 316SS and can also be fabricated from exotic alloys when needed.

R style gas/liquid separators are available with ASME code stamp and CRN. All fabricated R style gas/liquid separators are designed in New Jersey (USA) in accordance with ASME Section VIII, Division I.

"31L Style Horizontal Gas Liquid Separators Gas liquid separators for up to 5% by weight of the units flow capacity"

The Wright-Austin 31L series of in-line horizontal gas/liquid separators remove 99% of droplets and particles equal to or greater than 10 microns in a very compact design. As the moisture laden gas enters the separator, it encounters a curved, stationary blading structure welded to the inside of the vessel, and this causes a centrifugal force, propelling the droplets to the outer wall. The liquid coalesces and exits the separator's drain.

Model 31L Wright Austin horizontal air liquid separators have an in-line barrel orientation and side inlet connections and can be used for both horizontal or vertical down flow applications.

The liquid coalesces and exits the separator's drain.

As with all Wright-Austin gas/liquid separators, there are no moving parts, they are self-cleaning and require no maintenance. Wright Austin gas liquid separators employ a patented Vortex Containment Plate (VCP) and combined with centrifugal action assures maximum separation of entrainment with minimal chances of reentrainment. Wright Austin accomplished this without complex baffles, deflectors and other structures that obstruct the flow-stream, resulting in very low pressure drops.

T-DTL Gas Liquid Separators

Wright Austin high efficiency T style DTL gas liquid separators for horizontal applications are designed specifically for liquid droplet separation involving high solids content. T style DTL gas liquid separators have a conical shaped drain sump for better drainage.

When properly sized, our separators will remove up to 99% of all liquid and solids greater than 10 microns in size from an air, gas or steam flow. The removal is accomplished by a design that causes the air/gas/steam to enter a controlled centrifugal flow. This results in forcing the entrained material to the outer wall and the VCP prevents re-entrainment. The removed particles and liquid accumulate at the bottom of the conical drain sump.
