Refrigerant Dryers for air drying and treatment

A compressed air dryer is a device for removing water vapor from compressed air. Compressed air dryers are commonly found in a wide range of industrial and commercial facilities. Water vapor is removed from compressed air to prevent condensation from occurring and to prevent moisture from interfering in sensitive industrial processes.

  • Drying compressed air prevents liquid water forming downstream where it can contaminate or damage the system causing operating problems, costly maintenance and repair expenses, as well as potential damage to the end-product.
  • Only compressed air that is totally clean and dry will ensure maximum savings.
  • The refrigeration air dryer cools the incoming air, condensing vapours into a liquid that is then drained from the system.
  • This method of drying is very popular as it produces dew points which are adequate for most applications in an energy efficient and reliable manner.
  • Typically, there is only a 5% additional energy cost for drying compressed air with a refrigeration dryer.

Refrigerant Dryers

One of the most economic methods of treating compressed air is with a refrigerant dryer. By cooling the compressed air down to near freezing point, the water and oil vapour are condensed and particles of dirt are bound together, the resulting condensate is then separated from the air flow.

In most cases, the pressure dewpoint need only be a few degrees lower than the ambient temperature to prevent condensate from forming in the pipes.
