commercial boiler air vents on glycol system

I'm running a glycol hot water system with 3 Sellers 150 psi boilers. The problem I'm having is with the air vents. They are equiped with spirax sarco ty-2 (13w) vents that don't seem to be allowing the air to vent off the boilers. I'm curious if these are the right vents or should I be using somthing different.

    Always check

    the manufacturer's literature to be sure the pressure ratings are within your needed range.

    Don't have my S/S catalog handy, but sspect you may be onto the cause.

    Location of vents is even mnore critical! I wish I had a dime for every vent I saw on a pipe elbow/tee. Wrong, wrong and wrong way to go.
