MONTZ STRUCTURED PACKINGS
SYNONYMOUS FOR QUALITY IN THE FIELD OF THERMAL FRACTIONATING

Structured packings are characterized by a very

efficient technique and a versatile range of applications.
The packings offer a high separation efficiency, good
wettability and a low pressure drop. They can be
adapted to address any fractionation problem for
distillation, absorption and liquid-liquid extraction.

The special features of Montz packings allow for

variable geometric dimensions and the choice of
different surface structures. This flexibility can solve
nearly any fractionation problem.
Packing types A3, B1, BSH, C1 and M feature a
variety of configurations, for example:
n A3-type packing uses a woven wire gauze,
ribbon or strip
n B1-type packing uses a cold rolled sheet metal
foil ribbon or strip
n BSH-type packing uses an expanded metal
ribbon or strip
n M-type packing has a curved shaped crimping
regardless of the base material (wire gauze,
cold rolled foil or expanded metal)
We also now offer an MN-type packing that has
a NEW curvature to the crimping regardless of
the base material (wire, gauze, cold rolled foil or
expanded metal).
The waves are inclined toward the vertical,
and together with the adjacent plate, they form
intersecting flow ducts. This packing structure
results in large interfacial areas and provides an
intimate contact between the gas and liquid phase.
An exact adaptation to the respective
requirements is ensured by special internals such
as liquid distributors, flash equipment, liquid
collector trays and vapor distributors. All these
internals are carefully adapted to the packings and
to the problem to be solved. They are subject to a
permanent quality control.

 Packing element of Montz-Pak
Type BSH-400 with wall wipers

These internals include:

n exactly operating liquid distributors
n low pressure drop collectors for the liquid
phase
n uniformly operating vapor and gas distributors
n wall wipers to avoid bypass flows and to
compensate for manufacturing tolerances
n flash equipment for an overheated feed
n support systems with large net-free areas
A basic requirement for the high efficiency
of Montz structured packings is their precise
manufacturing.
The packings are manufactured on computer-
controlled lines to assure maximum accuracy and
mechanical stability.
The high accuracy of fit and stability of Montz
products are essential criteria for an economic
and problem-free installation of the packings in
either newly built or existing columns.
All Montz packings are manufactured in
segments and are mounted through manholes or
shell flanges.

The Montz-Pak Type M is a new generation of structured packings.

MONTZ-PAK TYPE BSH
HIGH-PERFORMANCE PACKING FOR THERMAL MASS TRANSFER

The BSH-packing combines the essential features and characteristics of

metal sheet and wire mesh packing. A remarkable characteristic of the
BSH-packing is the special surface structure. This consists of rhombic
perforations with alternating burred-up edges. This structure
ensures an excellent and uniform wetting under lowest and
high liquid loads. Turbulences caused by the burred-up
rims of the orifice ensure a permanent mixing of the
liquid film on the packing surface.

LIQUID DISTRIBUTORS
KNOW-HOW FROM MONTZ FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE

Liquid distributors are the most important elements in rectifying

columns with structured packings. The high separation efficiency
of structured packings can only be achieved with high-precision
liquid distributors. Over the years, Julius Montz has
acquired the know-how necessary Liquid distributor type R for assembly
through manholes DN 600
to design efficient liquid
distributors.

Each of the distributors consists of a centrally

arranged main channel with side channels
branching off from this. Central and side channels
form a communicating system so that liquid level
gradients within the distributor are avoided.

The individual channels are fixed at a supporting ring

and are individually and exactly adjustable (i.e. the distributor
is not situated on the packing bedding). The liquid is fed via a
pre-distributing system into the main channel of the distributor.
Liquid distributor type R DN 10600
Assembly can be made through shell flanges or manholes. on the distributor test bench
General features of all Montz Liquid Distributors:
n uniform distribution: deviations between the individual drain tubes< =3 to 5%
n numbers of drip points: 70 to <250 per m2 (depending on application and liquid load)
n liquid loads: depending on the design of the distributor 0.1 to >250m3/m2/h
(distributors for 201/m2/h have been successfully applied e.g. distillation of glycerine)
n flexibility: standard turn down ratio 1:3 (higher ranges of loading –
e.g. 1:10 and more – are possible using multi-stage distributors)
n design know-how for viscous liquids
n diameters range from 70 mm to 12 m and more
n the same design principle applies to diameters from
200 mm to >12m
n liquid feed by pre-distribution system can be adapted to
most applications
n contamination is reduced because our designs are
resistant to dirt and sedimentable impurities
n Can be adjusted easily with standard fitter’s tools
n Fits solidly against the column wall
n Installation and inspection can be made through manholes
for columns from DN 800; smaller columns can be accessed
through shell flanges.

LIQUID DISTRIBUTOR TYPE S
SOLUTIONS FOR EXTREMELY SMALL SPRINKLING DENSITIES

The patented liquid distributor Type S

is suitable for extremely small sprinkling
densities. The special design enables a
high density of drip points so that the
packing surface is completely wetted
even with small amounts of liquid.
The Channel-style Type S

The basic design of the Montz channel-type liquid distributor Solutions for the
Type S is the tried and trusted Montz modular system. The toughest applications
standard drain tubes have additional drainage sleeves so that Because of the great demands made by liquid distribution
the liquid flows from each tube and is split into a number of on structured packings, Montz has gained a reputation as
small individual flows. The design enables drip point densities a specialist in this field. Special designs tailored to even
of at least 100 per m2 for even small amounts of liquid. extreme requirements are standard for us.
