Compressed air products / HOW TO CHOOSE A DRYER
AIR QUALITY MAKES THE PRODUCT A VALUABLE ASSET
To ensure efficient, reliable and high-quality compressed air treatment systems, criteria such as air quality and operating conditions must be considered.
AIR QUALITY BY APPLICATION
The sector and compressed air quality classes established by ISO 8573.1 define the most correct installation for compressed air treatment and the correct sequence between compressor, dryer, filters and various accessories.
CORRECTION FACTORS
The following operating conditions must be considered in every project: inlet air pressure, ambient temperature, inlet air temperature and pressure dewpoint. Each operating parameter has a corresponding numerical factor. A simple calculation between the air flow rate and the various factors defines the right dryer model to choose.
WATER ANALYSIS
The cooling water features of water-cooled dryers must meet specific requirements to ensure stable and reliable system operation.
