Product Description
The hump support carries a bed of random packing. Its design increases the area for the gas to pass through, and the openings are not easily blocked by the packing.
How It Works
The plate is made of hump-shaped beams with openings in their sides. Gas enters the packing through these side openings, where the packing cannot block them, while liquid drains through the bottom. This gives a large open area and a low pressure drop.
