Abstract:
1. A kit for assembling a de-aerator for removing gas from a liquid distribution system comprising: a cylindrical fitting having first and second ends, the first end being adapted to be inserted into a connector of a standard T-coupling having an unobstructed fluid flow path between an inlet connector and an outlet connector thereof, and connected to the coupling in a fluid-tight seal; a cap adapted to be connected to the second end of the fitting in a fluid-tight seal; a valve with a valve stein connected to a float for selectively closing the valve when the liquid rises above a predetermined level in the fitting, and for selectively opening the valve when the liquid in the fitting is displaced below the predetermined level by the gas; and a gas concentrator adapted to extract gas from the liquid flowing through the standard T-coupling, the gas concentrator being directly received in the unobstructed fluid flow path of the coupling, beneath the float.
