HD-Series Heatless Dryer
Perma Pure HD-Series heatless dryers are ideal for low flow air
drying operations. Dryer operation is fully automatic, and outlet dew
points as low as -50°C can be achieved.
HD dryers consist of two chambers filled with highly adsorbent
desiccant. The standard desiccant is molecular sieve 4A. One chamber
dries the gas stream while the opposite chamber is regenerated
(purged). Purge air is a small portion of dried air taken from the
drying chamber, expanded to atmospheric pressure and flowing
countercurrent through the regenerating (wet) chamber. Wet purge air is
released from an exhaust port in the vapor state so that no drain is
required. Purge air volume is controlled with an orifice housed within
the unit. Purge air may be vented directly into the surrounding
atmosphere, or it may be piped to a remote location. Once electrical
power and air pressure are supplied to the dryer, it is ready to be
used.
There are two models available. The 7" model is best for flows under
60 liters per minute, while the 12" version is recommended for flows of
up to 90 liters per minute. The 12" model is also recommended for
applications requiring dew points below 40°C. |
