SS316 Metal Super Mini Ring

Metal Super Mini Ring, also called metal flat ring, is an advanced type of random tower packing. It is designed with a short open-ring structure and a height-to-diameter ratio of about 0.2–0.4. The unique inward-curved arc ribs enhance strength and stability, while also ensuring efficient mass transfer. Compared with traditional Pall Ring, Metal Super Mini Ring can improve mass transfer effects by more than 20%.

Metal Super Mini Ring is widely used in chemical and petrochemical industries for its excellent structural advantages. The thin wall and large void ratio allow for high flux and low resistance. Its symmetrical arced fins improve liquid distribution, reduce droplet agglomeration, and promote repeated dispersion and redispersion of droplet clusters. This unique process increases separation efficiency, reduces axial back-mixing, and ensures stable operation in both gas-liquid and liquid-liquid systems.

Features

  • Materials available: carbon steel, SS304, SS304L, SS410, SS316, SS316L, etc.
  • High crushing strength and easy to operate
  • Large flux with low pressure drop
  • High separation efficiency and low bed resistance
  • Flexible operation suitable for different mass transfer applications

Advantages

  • Large throughput with low pressure drop
  • High mass transfer efficiency
  • Wide operating flexibility
  • Enhanced stability and reduced scaling tendency

Applications

Metal Super Mini Ring is especially suitable for liquid-liquid extraction processes. The symmetrical arc fins improve flow homogeneity, reduce droplet agglomeration, and increase overall efficiency in extraction towers. It is also widely used in gas-liquid separation, such as absorption and desorption towers.

This packing is highly recommended for vacuum distillation columns, especially for processing heat-sensitive, easily decomposed, easily polymerized, and carbon-forming materials. It is commonly applied in petrochemical engineering, fertilizer production, and environmental protection industries. Typical equipment includes vapor washing towers, purification towers, and high-pressure towers.
