PN-2 Type Pan Distributor for Column Internals
The SHEPL PN-2 Type Pan Distributor is a precision orifice-type liquid distributor used to provide consistent and reliable liquid flow in industrial process columns. The distributor is suitable for column diameters ranging from 100 millimeters to 1200 millimeters, making it applicable to a broad range of applications in the petrochemical and chemical sectors.
This distributor employs precisely sized orifices in a regular pattern over the base pan. The orifices provide uniform liquid distribution over the packing surface while permitting upward flow of vapor through specific risers. This design provides excellent gas-liquid contact, helping to improve mass transfer efficiency in processes such as distillation, absorption, and reaction processes.
Engineered for performance, the PN-2 is designed with a typical turndown ratio of 2 to 1 and can usually operate in a pressure drop ranging from 0.2 to 0.6 inches of water. Available in single- or multi-piece construction, the inclusion of circular or rectangular gas risers makes it flexible enough to match most process requirements.
Due to its ability to hold up liquid, this orifice-type liquid distributor also handles low liquid flow with ease while maintaining operational stability without sacrificing efficiency.
Compatible with plastic as well as metal internals, the PN-2 Type Pan Distributor is a reliable option for peak performance in most column systems.
