The Caleffi 546560AM is a DIRTMAG magnetic dirt separator with 2-1/2" ANSI Flange connections. It is installed in the circuit to remove dirt and ferrous particulate before it reaches pumps, control valves and heat exchangers.
Best for systems with cast iron or steel components, where ferrous debris would otherwise circulate.

Key Features
Low-Velocity Dirt Collection
An enlarged chamber drops fluid velocity so heavier particulate settles into a collection zone that can be flushed without shutting the system down.
Magnetic Ferrous Capture
A Neodymium rare-earth assembly captures ferrous debris that a non-magnetic separator passes straight through, protecting pumps and heat exchangers.
Construction
Body material: Steel.
Rated Operating Envelope
Maximum operating pressure 150 psi, medium temperature range 32 - 270 °F.
