Column unit for efficient and reliable cold water deaeration under atmospheric conditions. Final oxygen below 10 ppb Carbonation of deaerated water No vacuum required Low CO2 / N2 consumption The deaeration column is filled with high-efficiency structured packing. Its large internal surface ensures a maximal contact area between gas and liquid. Water is homogeneously distributed on the top and CO2 / N2 is injected at the bottom of the column. While the water flows downwards through the packing, the CO2 / N2 rises counter-currently, removing the oxygen to concentrations as low as 10 ppb. A drive controlled pump maintains the level in the column and forwards the deaerated water into a buffer tank or point of use. The unit has an uncompromising sanitary design and is fully CIP cleanable. Final Oxygen: less than 10 ppb (0,01 ppm) Pressure: operating 2 to 4 barg, 30 to 60 psig Temperature: operating 8 to 30 °C, 40 to 90 °F CIP: 2 to 4 barg, 30 to 60 psig; max. 90 °C, 200 °F CO2 / N2 purity: 99,995 % Stripping gas flow: app. 0,5 g/l (final O2, water temperature and column height dependent) Carbonation: app. 2 g/l (water temperature dependent) Connection: Tri-clamp; other connections upon request Dimensions: from Height 5,5 m, 16,4’; Width 1,0 m, 3,3’; Depth 0,5 m, 1,6’ Weight: from 200 kg, 440 lb Material: Stainless Steel 304, EPDM, PSU, PP
