Column Internals:
Hold-down Plate Type BL-P,
Ø > 100 mm for structured packings

The BL-P Type Hold-Down Plate is a versatile retaining device designed for use in structured packing columns with a diameter of Ø > 100 mm. Positioned on top of the packing, it prevents crushing, shifting, or bed expansion during pressure surges or operational fluctuations, ensuring stable and efficient mass transfer.

Also known as a bed limiter, the BL-P Hold-Down Plate is engineered to provide a high free area, allowing uninterrupted liquid and gas flow while minimizing process interference. It is particularly recommended for ceramic and carbon random packings, especially in cases where tray support rings are unavailable.

With its robust construction and corrosion-resistant materials, the BL-P Type Hold-Down Plate plays a crucial role in maintaining column stability and performance, making it an essential component in distillation, absorption, and chemical processing applications.
