GIP-2 Type Support Plate for Ceramic Packings

Efficient Support for Ø > 100 mm Packed Columns in Mass Transfer Applications

GIP-2 Type Support Plate for Ceramic Packings

Reliable Support for Ceramic Packings in Critical Mass Transfer Processes

The GIP-2 Type Support Plate is a key element in column internals, specifically engineered for use with ceramic packing in towers larger than 100 millimeters in diameter. Its main role is to provide strong and stable support for both random and structured packing beds, ensuring they remain secure under operating conditions.

 

This support plate helps manage the weight of the liquid and packing materials while promoting efficient gas and liquid distribution. Its design features a high open area, which allows smooth flow, reduces the risk of flooding, and prevents liquid buildup that can hinder performance.

 

Built for durability, the GIP-2 is available in both grating and multi-beam configurations to suit various process needs and tower designs. Whether used in sulfuric acid absorption, cooling, drying, distillation, or washing towers, this support plate is crafted to maintain process efficiency and promote consistent mass transfer under different pressure conditions.
