Snowflake ring was invented by American Norton, also called intalox snowflake.The positive hexis’upper and lower composited structure owns robust exhibiting unbeatable qualities of stablility and resilience.Snowflake ring’s Up and down two layer staggered and crossing distribution promotes liquid drop’s the polymerization and dispersion, speeds up droplet fastly fall down. It offers superior separation efficiency and capacity in environmental application such as Gas washing, acid mist, wastewater treatment and flue gas cooling of washing and so on. Compared with other packing, Snowflake ring’s pressure drop & processing efficiency is better than Pall rings and save more than 50% energy cost than Saddle ring.
Due to the diameter & design configuration, Snowflake ring is not commonly used in towers with a diameter of less than 1000mm. When snowflake ring filling in the packing bed, it will interlock during loading thus requiring more than the normal volume correction factor compared to Pall Rings. In actual application, You have to buy 15-18% more than Actual usage.
Finally, Snowflake ring was recognized the fourth generation of High performance Plastic Random Packing
