Peak LP DAC columns are designed for high performance. The columns have variable bed length and are designed for low pressure applications.
The columns are designed with internal hydraulic compression, which makes the construction space-saving. This is a particular strength when beds are packed, due to high mobility (e.g. through door openings).
The same distributor and frit construction in the top and bottom of the column allow both up- and down flow directions and ensure an evenly distributed flow through the packed bed. The columns offer easy handling and service, with a focus on safety.
