The patented drying system begins at the
compressor, where filtered ambient air is
compressed. The compressed air is then cooled
and condensed in the heat exchanger after
which water droplets are separated in the water
filter. The saturated air then passes through
a coalescing filter for the removal of additional
water and then into the patented membrane
cartridge where the remaining water is removed
by pressure differential.
The water separated in the filters is blown
to a pan on the head of the compressor and
is evaporated by the heat of compression.
The flow of the water is controlled by a timer
controlled solenoid.
The membrane tube separates moisture from air
by a pressure differential across semipermeable
fibers. The water vapor and a small amount of
the air permeate through the filter walls leaving
the exiting air with a reduced water vapor
content of -45°C (-50°F) dewpoint. The air that
permeates through the fibers purges the water
vapor out of the tubes vent ports.
This patented drying process contains no
moving parts, thus reducing maintenance and
increasing reliability.
The ultra-dry air exits the dehydrator at the top
of the unit. Low pressure, High Humidity, and
Excess Run alarms are tapped into the air line
within the dehydrator.
