Membrane Dryers KMM Series Flow rate at inlet up to 4.40 m3/min

The atmospheric air drawn into a compressor is a mixture of gases that always contains water vapour. The amount of water vapour air can carry varies and is mostly dependent on temperature. When air temperature rises – as happens during compression – the air's ability to hold moisture increases also. When the air is cooled, its capacity to hold moisture reduces, which causes the water vapour to condense. This condensate is then removed in the centrifugal separator, or the air receiver, downstream from the compressor. Even then, the air can still be completely saturated with water vapour. This...

Membrane separation layer KMM – Eight decisive advantages 1 ‘Flow’ concept Energy-saving purge air stop valve (Option) Porous support layer To avoid unnecessary flow of purge air, the solenoid stop valve on the purge air outlet can be set to close during times when there is no compressed air demand. Furthermore, the valve provides unrivalled reliability and operated perfectly for well in excess of 1 million switching sequences under rigorous testing conditions. Each hollow membrane fibre consists of a highly porous support layer and an internal separating membrane layer that is permeable only by...
