Single Head Bulk Plant Air Eliminator with Optical SensorSimple Bulk Plant Air EliminationGeneral InformationFeatures• Less piping• Fewer moving parts• No air check or differential valve required• Optical sensor• Low Mount Mechanical Air Eliminator• Integral valve controlwith MultiLoad or LectroCount electronics• Ideal for refined fuels offloading• Designed to meet Class 1, Division 2 requirementsBenefits• Easier installation• Faster response time• Less maintenanceThe Single Head Bulk Plant Air Eliminator with Optical Sensor is a new bulk plant air eliminationsolution that promises faster response times, quicker installations, and less maintenance thanpneumatic-based mechanical air eliminators. It is ideal for eliminating air from refined fuels applicationswhere product is metered into storage from a truck-mounted pump.The Single Head Bulk Plant Air Eliminator with Optical Sensor is the latest innovation in the four-decadelong evolution of Liquid Controls’ air eliminators. For years, Liquid Controls mechanical bulk plant aireliminators—in single and dual head configurations—have reliably removed entrained air from meteringsystems in high flow rate loading and offloading applications. Both configurations have a large tankwhere the air is allowed to separate from the liquid and a high mount air eliminator at the top of thetank that remove the air from the system. The dual head bulk plant air eliminator has an additional aireliminator mounted below the high mount air eliminator. The low mount air eliminator identifies andhelps to remove large slugs of air that can sometimes overwhelm the high mount air eliminator.The Single Head Bulk Plant Air Eliminator with Optical Sensor is a more advanced alternative to thedual head bulk plant air eliminator. Like the dual head bulk plant air eliminator, it uses a high mountair eliminator to remove air from the system. But instead of relying on a low mount mechanical aireliminator to identify large air slugs, it uses an optical sensor. When the optical sensor identifies alarge air slug, it instantly signals an electronic preset or register (Toptech’s MultiLoad presets or LiquidControls’ LectroCount registers). Upon receiving the signal from the optical sensor, the electronic devicecloses a downstream control valve, stopping the product flow, and the air slug is quickly vented throughthe high mount air eliminator.The optical sensor responds to and eliminates air slugs faster than pneumatic-based mechanical aireliminators. Because the Single Head Bulk Plant Air Eliminator with Optical Sensor has no moving partsor piping requirements, installation times are shorter, maintenance concerns are reduced, and servicelife is extended.Single Head Bulk Plant Air Eliminator with Optical Sensorwww.lcmeter.com
