GAS DIFFUSER

摘要

A gas diffuser including a conically-shaped diffuser cone having a plurality of openings formed along the base circumference of the cone for liberating small gas bubbles. Connected to an opening formed in the apex of the cone is a hydrostatic leg depending therefrom. The length of the hydrostatic leg is designed such that during normal operation no gas will pass therethrough. The openings in the diffuser cone include an outer entrance opening and a recessed inner entrance opening. The inner opening is of square shape to release a small bubble. The top of the diffuser cone includes a unique seat and latch connecting arrangement that enables the diffuser to be installed in an opening in gas header pipes of varying diameters.
