GOOD TO KNOW The air eliminator is constructed of 316L stainless steel and installed at the suction of a CIP return pump to remove air from CIP return solution and prevent air lock in a centrifugal pump. The weight of the air eliminator ball ensures that when air is passing it should stay in the open position. Once there is liquid in the line, the ball will float and seal. When this occurs you will have some solution escape out of the device; this is common. In addition, some chattering noise while the ball passes air and then re-seals is also common. NOTE: If the pump is used during processing to transfer product, the air eliminator is usually removed and the port is capped.
