Desiccant Compressed Air Dryers

Once aftercoolers and separators have removed the bulk of the water, use these dryers to remove any remaining moisture in your air line. To reuse saturated desiccant, heat it at its reactivation temperature until it returns to its dry desiccant color. Install after an oil filter to protect the desiccant.
Dryers with a metal bowl are more durable and stand up to vapor better than dryers with a plastic bowl.
High-Capacity Refrigerant-Cooled Compressed Air Dryers

Remove bulk water vapor from your compressed air line by refrigerating the air. These dryers have a timer-activated drain valve that opens automatically to discharge condensate. Install them in your air line after the compressor and separator.
Non-cycling dryers run continuously to dry compressed air, so they’re best for applications with a constant need for dry air.

High-Capacity Refrigerant-Cooled Compressed
Air Dryers with Filters for Particle Removal

These all-in-one dryers with filters eliminate the need for individual dryers and filters. They cool air through refrigeration to condense water vapor for removal. Because they are non-cycling and run continuously, they are best for applications that need constant dry air. A float-operated drain valve opens automatically when the bowl begins to fill. After water removal, a heat exchanger raises the outlet air temperature to prevent condensation on downstream piping. The built-in display lets you monitor and adjust the dew point of the compressed air. Be sure to install in your air line after the compressor and separator.

Compressed Air Separators
Prevent equipment damage caused by moisture. The first step in water removal, these separators remove the water that accumulates as compressed air cools. They have a float-operated drain valve that automatically opens when the bowl begins to fill. Install in your air line after compressors and aftercoolers.
