Triflo Advanced Vacuum Degasser
For more than 25 years this concept of a vacuum horizontal degasser has proven to be the most effective method of removing explosive gas from your active mud system. Triflo improved on this concept three ways: by increasing the output capability of the vessel, eliminating the possibility of creating an explosive air gas mixture during the discharge phase, and lowering the center of gravity by mounting the vacuum pump under the vessel.

Increased Capacity The new design is capable of pulling 13 inches of vacuum and degassing 1200 gallons of mud per minute.
A Simple Concept Makes It Work
A positive vacuum withdraws all volatile distillates and gasses from a thin layer of drilling fluid that is evenly dispersed over an angled baffle assembly. The volatile gasses are then safely vented away from the well site area.
DEGASSER 800 COMPACT
In 1981, Triflo engineers introduced to the pressure control market a small but reliable 48" vertical degasser that is called the Triflo Compact 800. The vessel can handle 800 GPM of gas cut drilling mud.
One of the safety features built into the Triflo Compact 800 Degasser is when the vacuum is equalized to discharge mud. The gas being separated is returned to the vessel, instead of using outside air containing oxygen, thus preventing a possible combustible mixture.
The compact degasser has the same CSA/UL approved 3 HP 230/460 volt, 3 Phase 60 HZ motor with explosion-proof starter and vacuum compressor as our popular horizontal degasser.
Benefits of the Compact 800 are:
- Compact and portable
- Easy and quick installation
- Mounts on top of the mud tank
- 16" suction extends into the mud level below
- Low maintenance
- Positive vacuum assist
- Minimizes barite costs
- Restores true mud weight
- Safe and efficient
- Reduces blowout potential by
recycling of gas to discharge the vessel
