Airtek TWP Series Externally Heated Dryer
Airtek Externally Heat Reactivated Dryers use the twin tower adsorption method to remove water vapor from compressed air. To reduce the regeneration purge consumption required in heatless dryers, it is directed through an external heater prior to being used for regeneration of the off-stream desiccant tower. Rugged activated alumina desiccant is used to typically lower dew point to -40°F/C.
Airtek patented Multi-Port Regeneration System is used to assure that the heat from the purge air is directed to the part of the desiccant tower where the bulk of the moisture is located. Energy efficiency, tighter dew point control, and more thorough regeneration are accomplished with this design. Airtek TWP dryers have the capability of being used in the heatless dryer mode should repairs be necessary for a component used in the heated system.
Heaters are covered by a 5-year warranty, made possible by the use of Airtek’s unique ThermaLoc heater control system. Butterfly type switching valves carry a 3-year warranty. All functions are managed and monitored by Airtek’s Master Control Center. |
