Key Features
- Optimized Dimensions: Thinner wall and precise slot geometry for high surface area (≈138 m²/m³ for a 95×34 mm ring).
- High Voidage (≈97%): Ensures excellent flow.
- Material: Usually molded from polypropylene or nylon for corrosion resistance.
Benefits
- Extremely Efficient: Maximizes contact points in a compact size.
- Stable Performance: Thicker rings maintain shape under load, making them suitable for tall columns.
Applications
- Fine Distillations: Chemical or solvent separations requiring high efficiency.
- Air & Gas Cleaners: Processes where tight packing but little fouling is needed.
Technical Specifications
- Size Example: 95 mm OD × 34 mm H × 1.5 mm wall.
- Surface Area: ~138 m²/m³.
- Voidage: ~97%.
Unique Selling Points (USPs)
- High Packing Density: Excellent performance in compact column space (high efficiency per cubic meter of packing).
