The IRIS® is a compact, gas-liquid scrubber
designed to separate liquids from a gas stream in applications where even small amounts of liquid can cause extensive
damage.
Compact Gas-Liquid Scrubber for Gas Service
The IRIS is a compact, gas-liquid scrubber for in-line pipe installations.
There are three sizes (1½", 3" & 6") and
each contains a rotary drum, which utilizes the gas pressure to spin liquids out of the gases. Its compact design allows it to be installed quickly, with minimal changes required to produce immediate separation results.
The 1½"
unit is a vertical design, and the 3" and 6" units are
horizontal.
The IRIS unit can be as little as one-tenth of the size and weight of a conventional static separator and requires less instrumentation. Separation efficiency meets or exceeds that of static separators and provides a gas outlet quality that is suitable for compressors or metering duty.
The unique design of the IRIS unit allows for easy retrofit installation into any process piping. The unit is ideally suited for service in applications with limited footprint space. It does not require operator intervention and requires minimal maintenance.

| Key Design Features |
| • In-line installation (easy retrofit) |
• ANSI flange connections |
| • Self-lubricated ball bearings |
• Self-powered, free spinning |
| • Self-clearing of liquids and solids |
• Simple, robust design |
| • Simple, minimal maintenance |

The IRIS unit uses inlet gas pressure directed through static nozzle vanes to create high-velocity swirling flow. The rotating fluid drives an internal
conical drum and creates a high "g" centrifugal field to remove liquid droplets from the gas stream. Liquids are collected on the rotating
drum's internal surface and flow over the front lip of the drum, where they collect in a volute chamber.
