Description
The special design and internal baffles of Taco Air Scoops® slow water velocity to separate the air from solution. Thanks to this design, Taco Air Scoops efficiently remove air to provide noiseless, air-free hydronic heating, cooling or combination systems. They also provide an economic way to integrate air elimination by the connection of either a plain steel or diaphragm expansion tank. Quality features include one-piece, cast iron construction, and engineered baffle to separate air from water, maximum operating pressure of 125 psi (862 kPa) and maximum operating temperature of 300 deg F (135 deg C).- Operation - Air being lighter than water, it travels along the upper portion of horizontal pipe in low velocity hydronic systems
- Threaded connection type
- Taco air scoops are available in 1 in through 3 in cast iron threaded
- Each air scoop has an 1/8 in vent connection on top for the installation of a Taco 400-3 or 416-1 hy-vent, and a 1/2 in bottom tapping for a diaphragm expansion tank
