One unit that both collects the liquid from the bed above and spreads it evenly again over the bed below.
Choose This Product When

Product Description
The trough collector and re-distributor collects the liquid and distributes it again in one unit. This reduces the space it takes in the column and improves mass transfer. Its structure is simple and easy to install and maintain.
Also called a collector-redistributor.
How It Works
Liquid from the bed above is caught in collection troughs, mixed and then released evenly onto the bed below through the same unit, so a separate collector and distributor are not needed.
