Liquid Distributors: The Key to Unlocking Your Column’s Full Potential​

Think of your packed column as a sophisticated irrigation system. No matter how advanced your packing is, if water isn’t distributed evenly across the field, some crops will drown while others wither. Liquid distributors are that crucial first step—they are the “sprinkler heads” of your column, ensuring perfect liquid distribution across the top of the packing bed.
​Why Proper Distribution is Non-Negotiable​
An inefficient distributor is the single biggest cause of underperformance in a packed column. Poor distribution leads to “channeling,” where liquid takes the path of least resistance, leaving large sections of your expensive packing dry and useless. This directly slashes separation efficiency, increases energy costs, and can lead to premature column failure. Investing in the right distributor isn’t an option; it’s the foundation of your process’s success.
​Our Range of Distributor Solutions​
We engineer distributors for every service, from clean, high-purity applications to the most fouling and corrosive environments.
  • ​Trough-Type Distributors:​​ Ideal for large diameters and high liquid rates. Robust design resists fouling.
  • ​Orifice-Pan Distributors:​​ Excellent for general services, providing uniform distribution with a compact design.
  • ​Tube-Type Distributors:​​ Perfect for low-flow rates and corrosive services, often constructed from plastics like PP or PVDF.
  • ​Specialized Designs:​​ Including multi-level and custom designs for complex requirements like foaming services or vacuum columns.
​Key Benefits of Our Distributors​
  • ​Maximize Packing Efficiency:​​ Achieve the theoretical separation performance of your packing by ensuring even liquid loading.
  • ​Prevent Channeling & Hot Spots:​​ Eliminate dry zones that waste packing and wet zones that cause flooding.
  • ​Increase Operational Flexibility:​​ Maintain performance across a wider range of turn-down ratios.
  • ​Reduce Operating Costs:​​ Optimize energy use by ensuring every part of your packing is working effectively.
  • ​Durable & Low-Maintenance:​​ Built from corrosion-resistant materials for long, reliable service life.
​Find Your Perfect Match​
  • ​For Fouling Services:​​ Choose large-open-area Trough Distributors.
  • ​For Low Liquid Rates:​​ Precision Tube Distributors are the answer.
  • ​For Corrosive Chemicals:​​ PP, PVDF, or ceramic-built distributors are essential.
  • ​For High-Purity Distillation:​​ Uniform distribution is critical; Pan Distributors excel here.
The right liquid distributor is not just another component—it’s the difference between a good column and a great one. Let our experts help you specify the perfect distributor to ensure your process operates at peak performance from day one.
