Point of Use Dryers- Zero Air Loss explained. Even if you have an existing central air drier with your compressed air system and filtration, you may have a dew point issue but still have water going into your compressed air-operated device.
The Dew point is the temperature at which water vapor in your compressed air is now without vapor. It condenses to a liquid form. If enough condensation forms, you can have free-flowing water in your air delivery system.
Leaks, system design, or the nature of the compressed air-operated device can have condensation.
If the dew point, for whatever reason,
- changes by the time the air reaches its intended application
- or is not low enough.
Using compressed air for “breathing” or plastic drying can be a problem if the dew point rises beyond a certain level during compressed air transmission to the point of use.
Using vortex tubes are and, if the dew point needs to be higher, ice crystals can temporarily form inside some designs and cause intermittent operation.
The Nex Flow® Super Dry dew point lowering system is for point-of-use applications. You are installing your filtration system before the device consumes the compressed air.
The single tower or inline systems are a low-cost solution with replaceable cartridges. That utilizes quality moisture-absorbing material to lower the dew point to an acceptable level.
If particulate and existing water in the compressed air delivery system is a problem, review your filtration system.
If the existing filtration system is not addressing this issue adequately, consider the Nex Flow® Super Separator
