Avoid Unnecessary Downtime

During compression, a compressor turns humidity in the intake air into condensate. This can result in wear and corrosion throughout the compressed air network and downstream equipment. The wear and corrosion will then result in a costly interruption to your production. Wear and corrosion will also reduce the service and efficiency of your equipment.

Working Principle of an Adsorption Air Dryer

The working principle of an adsorption air dryer is based on the ability of the desiccant material to absorb water vapor from the compressed air. The filters before the adsorption air dryer protect it, then the filters after the adsorption air dryer eliminate desiccant dust. There are three phases in the drying process, which are the drying phase, regeneration phase and pressurization phase. You can find out more about each stage in our brochure.

Two Types of Adsorption Air Dryers

There are two types of adsorption Air dryers. There is the timer (timer controlled) and the sensor (PDP – sensor controlled). The timer continuous purges are calculated to operate in the most demanding conditions. In contrast, the sensor purges airflow based on achieving a constant dew point for significant energy savings.
