Adsorption Dryers Whether a compressed air user wants to control the growth of micro-organisms (essential for direct and in-direct contact applications in the food, beverage & pharmaceutical industries), ensure air used for critical applications / instrumentation is free from water contamination or has external piping where low ambient temperature can cause condensation, adsorption dryers are the go to dryer technology. There are many different adsorption dryer technologies available and whilst they all reduce water from the compressed air in the same way, they differ in the way they regenerate the desiccant material. Heatless Adsorption Dryers The simplest and most common method used to regenerate the adsorbent desiccant material is the ‘heatless’ method (so called as it does not use heat for desiccant regeneration). Parker MX dryers provide a constant outlet dewpoint in accordance with ISO8573-1 classes 1, 2 or 3 for water vapour Using a proportion of the clean, dry process air for regeneration, heatless dryers typically have the lowest capital costs of all adsorption dryer types (due to the simplicity of the heatless design). Parker MX dryers provide an outlet dewpoint which inhibits the growth of micro-organisms (allowing their efficient reduction using filtration) Air purity is complemented by installing Parker OIL-X General Purpose & High Efficiency Coalescing pre-filtration and General Purpose Dry Particulate post filtration Being very robust and having fewer components, they typically have the lowest maintenance cost of all the adsorption technologies. Parker MX dryers use clean, dry purge air for regeneration, eliminating any risk of damage to the adsorption bed or re-contamination of the downstream compressed air Parker MX dryer performance has been tested in accordance with ISO7183, the international standard for compressed air dryer testing No heat is used for regeneration; therefore, no insulation is required and loss of dewpoint on column changeover due to inefficient cool down is eliminated Option of basic electronic control or full feature electronic control with dewpoint display and Energy Saving Technology Parker MX materials of construction are FDA Title 21 CFR compliant & EX1935/2004 exempt Specialist adsorbent fill method and modular design allow drying capacity to be easily increased should future air demand increase Can also be upgraded into a heatless low energy variant to reduce regeneration air usage and energy consumption even further Heatless dryers are available to suit all compressed air flow rates from small to large, whereas the more complicated regeneration methods are often only available for higher flow rates due to cost and com
