9. PRODUCT FUNCTION
9.1. Compressor with adsorption
dryer
The compressor air pumps (1) draw in air
through the inlet filter and compress it through
a non-return valve and into a manifold, from
which it is routed to the adsorption dryer (3)
through a connecting hose. From the inlet to
the dryer module, the air is first cooled in the
integrated cooler (16) and then moves through
the condensate separator (24), entering the
active chamber with adsorbent (15), where the
air is then dried. A portion of the dry air is
routed
into the second, regenerating
chamber, where the air removes moisture
from the adsorbent and is released together
with the trapped condensate into the
surroundings. Chamber operation (desiccant
regeneration) is cyclically switched. Dry and
filtered air then passes through the non-return
valve into the air tank (2).
