Stainless Steel 316 Metallic Pall Ring

Metal pall ring is made of material like carbon steel, stainless steel or Aluminum alloy, etc. The metal pall ring is one of MTE’s metal random packing products. For over fifty years, random packings are effectively used to improve a tower’s performance. Stainless steel pall rings are the most popular and widely used type because of the best corrosion resistance and chemical stability performance.

Metal pall ring is especially suitable for rectification towers under vacuum to treat thermo sensitive, decomposable, polymerizable or cokable systems, so it is widely used in packing towers in petrochemical industry, chemical fertilizer industry and environmental protection, etc. If you need more information, please click here.

Key Benefits of Metal Pall Ring

Metal pall rings packing is popular because the ring’s metal material and design offer benefits that can improve your operation in several ways. Metal pall rings improve on the Raschig ring design to deliver several benefits, including:

1.Higher loading capacity and throughput with minimal pressure drop

2.Easily wettable compared to its plastic counterpart

3.Higher mass transfer efficiency and better liquid/gas distribution

4.Excellent overall versatility, with good resistance to fouling

5.Excellent mechanical strength, for longer life and improved reliability

6.Suitable for high-temperature applications

7.Mechanically robust

Use our stainless steel pall rings in high temperatures, as well as acidic, alkali, high salt and other harsh environments. Ceramic and plastic varieties are available, as well — explore our website for details.

Applications of Metal Pall Ring

Metal pall rings' versatility means they are ideal for many industrial processes — especially those that need both a high capacity and a low-pressure drop under vacuum. Some processes they can help with include H2S, NH3 and SO2 absorption, direct contact cooling and steam stripping. They are not typically used for liquid redistribution. Other metal pall ring applications might include decarbonization, degassing and heat recovery.

You’ll find our metal pall rings in reaction towers, distillation columns and quench towers, as well as other vessels. Metal pall rings packing is used in various industries, and MACH Engineering can cater to industries like pharmaceuticals, chemical and food processing, water and wastewater, refineries and petrochemical.

The design of the pall ring is an improvement of the raschig ring. The cylindrical dimensions are equal, however the metal pall ring has two rows of punched and formed fingers facilitating vapor flow. This adjustment provides a significant performance increase, resulting in an improvement of the capacity and efficiency. In addition, this adjusted design leads to reduction of the pressure drop through the column.

The metal pall rings are mechanically robust and provided by us in various sizes and in different types of steel. We also provide ceramic pall rings and plastic pall rings.
