Reliability Expertise Since 1903 Atlas Copco’s philosophy has been to continually improve our products through intensive R&D, with the aim to maximize the value for our customers. Since the late 60’s we have been developing heat of compression dryers to match almost any size and type of oil-free compressors. What’s more, we are most likely the only company that can offer a complete range of heat of compression reactivated adsorption dryers. With the patented XD -70°C, Atlas Copco is also the first to offer a heat of compression adsorption dryer for the extremely low dewpoint range....

State-of-the-art, energy-free drying Removing moisture from compressed air even in the harshest conditions, Atlas Copco’s XD adsorption dryers eliminate system failures, production downtime and costly repair and service works. REDUCED ENERGY COSTS HIGH CORROSION RESISTANCE • Atlas Copco’s zero purge solution does not consume any compressed air. Consequently, there is no need to oversize your compressor installation to account for purge losses. • The high performance desiccant minimizes energy consumption during the regeneration cycle. • The low pressure drop of all individual components...

Thanks to their pioneering technology, XD dryers ensure the lowest pressure drop and lowest energy consumption for the highest possible efficiency – saving you time and money throughout the production process. EASY INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE • The modular design existing of a flanged piping skid and instrumentation and two flanged vessels allows for easy installation on site, reducing the installation costs to a minimum and guaranteeing quick commissioning. • There are no hidden costs whatsoever. • All controls and switches are connected to the Elektronikon controller. • The controller...

The drying principle Atlas Copco’s XD adsorption dryers use the heat of compression from oil-free compressors to dry compressed air. This heat is used effectively to regenerate the high quality desiccant, significantly reducing energy and operating costs. As any need for outside energy supply can be eliminated, adsorption is by far the most economical method of compressed air drying.

Built to endure Efficient air treatment equipment is crucial to reduce the contamination in the air that would otherwise produce corrosion in the pipework, lead to premature pneumatic equipment failure and cause product spoilage. Incorporating advanced technologies as well as cost saving features, Atlas Copco’s XD dryers offer you real energy savings without compromise in production reliability and efficiency. Hot air inlet • Heat of compression used for regeneration. Stainless steel coolers • No energy consumption. • Maximum energy efficiency and extended lifetime. • High water separation....

Towards a greener and cleaner environment Dirt particles, water, oil, oil vapor and condensate: these contaminants may cause disturbances of production systems as well as lost output or unusable products. The traditional adsorption principle used in the XD design is simple, robust and flexible using compressed air for regeneration while eliminating any need for an outside energy supply. As no ambient air is used during the regeneration process, any possible contamination of the desiccant layer is eliminated and the air quality is on a par with heatless and heated purge adsorption dryer...
