Tri-Packs® Tower Packing

The distinctive shaping of ribs, struts and drip rods gives Tri-Packs tower packing media superior wetting characteristics, low pressure drop, and the ability to maintain uniform liquid distribution throughout the bed.

Tri-Packs tower packing also prevent clogging, because there are no flat surfaces or minute openings to harbor particulate. Tri-Packs tower packing eliminates puddling too, because it's free of corners and valleys, and minimizes wasteful liquid flow down the wall surfaces. Tri-Packs further prevents dry spots and compression interlock, two phenomena common to traditional packing media. Both conditions cause liquid and air channeling and decrease media efficiency.

Note to specifiers: Surface area alone does not guarantee performance. Excess surface area can impede gas/liquid contact and create higher pressure drops, thus increasing horsepower requirements and operating expense. Tri-Packs tower packing provides the optimum surface-to-open-area ratio for achieving best mass transfer efficiency and lowest operating costs. It is the industry standard for random dump tower packing media.

Tri-Packs tower packing is available in four sizes in numerous resins, including polypropylene, KYNAR ®, and glass-filled polypropylene.
