Heatless Regenerative Desiccant Dryers DC 2.0 - DC 11.3 Series Durable space-savers Flow rate: 0.20 to 1.13 m³/min; Pressure 4 to 15 bar

Durable space-savers Reliable, quiet and efficient, DC series desiccant dryers from KAESER impress not only on account of their remarkably compact dimensions – thanks to high-quality and generously dimensioned components, these durable space-savers also guarantee impressively low life-cycle costs. Configurable operating modes contribute even more energy-saving potential, whilst two high-performance silencers ensure a low-noise operation. Flexible compressed air connections and the ECO CONTROL SMART controller’s standard-equipped network interface ensure easy installation and integration...

Rainfilling The more compact the layout of a desiccant dryer, the greater the need for an even filling of the desiccant material. For this reason, the desiccant cartridges in KAESER DC series dryers are filled using a special procedure know as “Rainfilling”, whereby the desiccant material is trickled into the cartridge across a device fitted with special louvres. The louvres repeatedly deflect the desiccant beads at random, resulting in an evenly distributed desiccant bed that is particularly tightly packed. This offers several advantages: It creates highly even flow channels within the...

Long-lasting, reliable design Desiccant dryers are often selected for sensitive applications, which tend to require a high level of compressed air availability. For this reason, DC series desiccant dryers are equipped with high-quality components for maximum reliability and minimal maintenance costs. Up to 20% longer service life Maintenance-free shuttle valves The cartridges, filled with water-resistant desiccant beads of activated alumina, are fixed in position using end caps. Inside, they feature an integrated stainless steel flow distributor and a coarse filter. Especially sized for a...

Dependable drying with energy cost savings Achieving pressure dew points below 0 °C is always a challenge. This means it was even more important than ever for KAESER to draw on their decades of experience when designing their DC series desiccant dryers and to use only highquality components throughout. In doing so, peak levels of energy efficiency have been achieved across the entire load range. KAESER KOMPRESSOREN KAESER KOMPRESSOREN Efficient regeneration Fast-acting and generously dimensioned Swift and complete expansion of the compressed air ensures that its full regeneration capacity...

Flexible operating modes The ECO CONTROL SMART controller offers two particular operating modes that can be used to achieve additional energy savings: Compressor synchronisation control Compressor t Upon receipt of a remote Off signal, the cycle will be stopped immediately. Upon receipt of a remote On signal, the cycle will be restarted. Benefit: No compressed air will be used during this period. Intermittent operation Compressor t Upon receipt of a remote Off signal, regeneration will cease and the half-cycle will only be stopped once it has completed. This means that dried compressed air...

Flexible connection, excellent accessibility DC series desiccant dryers are equipped with efficient KAESER FILTERS mounted on the outside of the machine. Flexible connections allow them to be attached in variable positions to the upper valve block. The electronic ECO-DRAIN condensate drain is delivered fully wired. The front panel offers simple and convenient access to the valves, silencers and ECO CONTROL SMART controller. Variable connections Quick access Flexible connections allow the KAESER FILTERS to be attached in variable positions to the upper valve block. The dryers are fitted with...

Network-capable as standard Pressure gauge Working pressure at a glance. Makes it simple to determine the current operating situation, as well as the pressure status when carrying out maintenance work. Status LEDs Animated functional diagram. Multicoloured LEDs visualise the process flow. Current status of the regeneration air valves is also displayed. Operating panel Intuitive operation. Operation is language-neutral, thanks to the use of intuitive icons. Detailed message content is displayed using numerical codes. Remote control Flexible operating modes. Controller operating mode can be...

Network connection Pathway to the SIGMA NETWORK. The ECO CONTROL SMART controller is equipped as standard with an Ethernet interface (Modbus TCP). Configuration of the interface can be performed easily via the controller, allowing communication with master controllers such as the SIGMA AIR MANAGER 4.0. Floating inputs/outputs The hotline. The controller offers the following floating inputs: Remote control, ECO-DRAIN message contact (factory-wired), PDP sensor (PDP kit accessory required). The following floating outputs are available: “Controller on/off ” operating message, “Maintenance...

Prefilter with manual condensate drain The prefilter protects the desiccant from dirt and oil aerosols. Accumulated condensate can be drained off manually via a ball valve. Prefilter with electronic, level-controlled ECO-DRAIN condensate drain Silicone-free version DC 2.0 – 11.3 models are available as a special, silicone-free version in accordance with VW testing standard PV 3.10.7. The prefilter is optionally available with an electronic, level-controlled ECO-DRAIN condensate drain, delivered fully wired from the factory, Wall bracket DC series desiccant dryers can be specified with a...
