Intalox Saddle
Intalox Saddle
中文名:矩鞍环
1. Metal Intalox Saddle
1) Improved efficiency due to lateral liquid diffusion and surface film renewal
2) Outstanding surface utilization in mass and heat transfer applications.
3) Shorter packed bed heights
4) Maximum piece-to-piece contact with minimal nesting
5) High strength to weight ratio allows up to a 15 meter bed height
6) Consistent performances due to uniform randomness
7) Free flowing particle design facilitates installation and removal via uniform randomizing

The above data is reference to material stainless steel (AISI304) in the material thickness shown. Other material available: carbon steel, stainless steel including 304, 304L, 410,316, 316L.
2. Plastic Intalox Saddle
Intalox saddle has characteristics of high void ratio, low pressure drop, low mass-transfer unit height, high flooding point, uniform gas-liquid contact, small specific weight, high mass transfer efficiency and so on. It is widely used in the packing towers of petroleum industry, chemical industry, chlorine-alkali industry, coal gas industry and environmental protection.

3. Ceramic Intalox Saddle
Ceramic intalox saddle is improved from the arc saddle, it changes the both arched surface to rectangular surface and makes the interior and exterior radius of curvature different, this construction overcomes the problem of nesting basically, it makes porosity distributed even and improves the distribution of the fluid, greater capacity and lower pressure drop than Raschig ring.
