Air Dryer
An air dryer treats compressed air using refrigeration, desiccant adsorption or membrane separation. Each method removes moisture through a different physical process.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Air Dryer in this report mainly focuses on membrane air dryer, refrigerated dryer and desiccated dryer products.
Pressure dew point must suit the coldest expected downstream condition. Inlet temperature, flow and operating pressure affect the load presented to the dryer.
Desiccant regeneration and membrane purge consume part of the system's resources. Condensate drainage and upstream filtration support dryer performance and prevent avoidable carryover.
What turns activity into demand
Compressed-air dryers reduce water vapour to a defined pressure dew point using different drying mechanisms.
The commercial boundary
Separate dryers from compressors, filters and complete compressed-air stations.
