How is a full-stream Wingert Separator installed?
The J.L. Wingert separator is installed after the pump and before the equipment. The Wingert Separator traps the system sediment in a bottom purge chamber within itself. The purge chamber does not offer resistance to tower flow, even when it is full of sediment. The separator has a constant pressure drop unlike a sand filter that reduces flow as it gets dirty. The purge chamber is emptied periodically to waste with an automated purge system.
