Product Description

The Metal Intalox Ring is a high-performance metal random packing characterized by a unique saddle-shaped geometry. Its shape resembles a curved saddle, hence the name "saddle packing." Developed as an improvement upon earlier arc saddle rings, the Metal Intalox Ring features optimized geometric parameters that overcome issues such as mutual nesting and high pressure drop, making it one of the best-performing metal saddle packings available today.
Unlike ring-type packings such as Metal Pall Rings or Metal Cascade Mini-Rings, the Metal Intalox Ring utilizes an open "C" shape rather than a closed ring wall. This open structure facilitates smoother flow for gas and liquid phases as they pass through the packing bed, resulting in lower pressure drop. Additionally, the ring's distinctive curved surface design promotes favorable orientation during random dumping, thereby minimizing mutual nesting and clumping among the packing elements.

The design philosophy of the Metal Intalox Ring can be summarized as "open curved surfaces and oriented stacking." Rather than prioritizing the high structural strength associated with closed ring walls, it employs an open, curved geometry to achieve lower pressure drop and superior resistance to fouling. It is particularly well-suited for processes such as absorption, scrubbing, and stripping, where low pressure drop is critical and the process media are prone to causing blockages.

Product Feature

I. Low Pressure Drop and Significant Energy Savings
The open C-shaped structure and curved design of the Metal Intalox Ring facilitate smooth gas flow through the packing bed, minimizing localized resistance. Compared to metal Pall rings of the same size, the Metal Intalox Ring offers a 20%–30% reduction in pressure drop, making it particularly suitable for vacuum distillation and pressure-drop-sensitive applications. Long-term operation results in substantial energy cost savings.
II. High Mass Transfer Efficiency and Superior Separation Performance
The curved geometry of the Metal Intalox Ring provides an expanded contact surface area for gas-liquid interaction. As liquid spreads across the packing surface, it forms a uniform film that ensures thorough contact with the gas, resulting in high mass transfer efficiency. Unlike saddle-type packings, the Metal Intalox Ring design prevents interlocking and eliminates dead zones, thereby significantly enhancing the separation efficiency of the entire column.
III. Strong Fouling Resistance and Extended Operational Cycles
The open C-shaped structure of the Metal Intalox Ring inhibits the accumulation of solid particles within the packing bed. Compared to ring-type packings, it offers superior resistance to fouling, making it ideal for media containing solid particles or prone to scaling. Even if minor impurities are present, the gas-liquid flow easily carries them away, preventing blockages.
IV. Diverse Material Options for Various Corrosive Environments
AYRTTER Metal Intalox Rings are available in a wide range of metal materials to suit specific process environments. Options span from cost-effective carbon steel and corrosion-resistant stainless steel to high-strength duplex steel and materials capable of withstanding extreme conditions—such as titanium and Hastelloy—covering virtually all corrosive media found in the chemical and petrochemical industries.
