Air Treatment

Cools compressed air to ~38°F so water vapor condenses and is drained off. Most shop air systems use a refrigerated dryer.

Twin-tower dryer for low pressure dewpoints (–40 to –100°F). Uses purge air to regenerate the offline tower. Required for outdoor lines, instrument air, paint, lab.

Uses an electric heater (and on blower-purge, an ambient air blower) to regenerate beads. Reduces purge loss dramatically vs heatless.

Filters remove particulate, water aerosol, oil aerosol, and oil vapor. Always install in the correct sequence and grade.

Drains collect and discharge condensate from receivers, filters, dryers, and drip legs. Failed drains are the #1 cause of wet air.

Removes ~70% of moisture by dropping discharge air from 250–350°F to within 15–20°F of cooling medium. Required ahead of any dryer.
