Type T air/liquid separator Wright-Austin™ established the industry standard for air/liquid separators over 125 years ago. Their product line includes both cast products (cast iron, cast steel and cast 316SS) as well as fabricated products, typically constructed from carbon steel, 304 SS or 316SS, although they can be constructed of most alloys available in pipe and plate form. Acquired by Hayward in 1996 and subsequently Eaton Hydraulics in 2005, our company has represented the Wright-Austin product line through our USA Principle since 2007.

What are gas/liquid separators?
They are pressure vessels which create an internal vortex to remove entrained droplets and particles from a process gas, usually compressed air or steam, although there are many petrochemical applications involving other gasses. Having no moving or serviceable components and due to the patented internal geometry of the separator, droplets and particles coalesce and drain from the separator with minimal pressure drop.

The efficiencies for most of our separators are 99% for removal of droplets and entrained particulate > 10 microns in size, although we do offer versions which can remove finer droplets including a coalescing style for removal of droplets as fine as 4 microns and a two stage design for removal of droplets >0.30 microns with 99.7% efficiency.

Cast products are typically stocked in non-assembled form, requiring 3-5 work days for assembly and testing prior to shipment after receipt of an order. Fabricated separation products require 6-8 weeks for most “standard” (existing designs) and up to 12 weeks for custom designed separators.
