Supply The Laars Hydraulic Separator is designed to help reduce short cycling of a boiler system and separate building and boiler circulation. The Hydraulic Separator uses stored boiler water to buer the system load when the boiler is producing more BTU’s than what the building can handle. When the building has a minimal demand, it pulls from the tank allowing the boiler to “rest”. The Hydraulic Separator is piped so the building ow is separate from the boiler ow, allowing independent circulation. From Boiler Return To Boiler Circulation from building The Hydraulic Separator acts as a decoupler...

To properly size the capacity of the Hydraulic Separator, 4 variables are needed: 1. The minimum “run time” of the boiler. Check with your boiler equipment manufacturer for their recommended minimum run time. 2. The minimum BTU output (BTU/hr). The minimum BTU output is based on the boiler output at the minimum ring rate, if equipped with a variable input system that modulates the ring rate down as the demand decreases. 3. The minimum system (heat) load (BTU/hr). Based on the smallest zone calling for heat. 4. Tank delta T for allowable temperature rise. For hydronic heating systems typically...
