Ambani Metals is a leading manufacturer, supplier and exporter of Metal Cascade Mini Ring, Random Packing in India.
The Cascade Mini Ring has a special flanging structure at the top, boosting its strength and enhancing directional flow by disrupting the packing symmetry. This design increases the space between the rings, ensuring even distribution of liquid and gas, resulting in efficient mass transfer. Compared to the Pall Ring, the Cascade Mini Ring has a half-height diameter ratio, reducing pressure drop and increasing flow.
Cascade mini ring is a sort of random pressing made of Carbon Steel or Stainless Steel. It is regularly a cylinder with a few windows open on a surface level and a trumpet-molded extended opening toward one side. This sort of random packing has higher mass transfer efficiency and preferable separation impact over the metal intalox saddle and metal raschig ring.
