Hotter is Better, Right? With global temperatures on the rise high-temperature air dryers are becoming more popular, the average ambient air temperature is going to rise as well. As air temperature increases, additional pressure is placed on your air system while humidity adds extra moisture to the air. When these two factors work in cohesion […]
Across the country, the most common dryer present in compressed air systems is far and away the refrigerant air dryer. Throughout manufacturing and service industries, these machines are renowned workhorses. They are incredibly consistent, achieving dewpoints of ~38°F, which is more than enough to be used with pneumatic tools and other applications requiring moisture-free air. […]
If you have been around air compressors before, you’ve most likely heard of needing to dry your compressed air. This is typically done with a refrigerated dryer, which uses cooling to remove moisture from the air, or by a desiccant air dryer. But just what exactly is this type, and how does it dry compressed […]
Deciding Between Types of Air Dryers Before we talk about the different types of air dryers we need to talk about why you need a dryer. Having a dryer is a crucial part of producing high-quality air and making sure your system can keep operating smoothly. Dryers are responsible for removing the moisture and water […]
In short, you need to calculate your Actual CFM output for your dryers in order to ensure the success and longevity of your equipment. When it comes to your compressed air system, knowing the requirements for your system is vital for your operation and for upgrading your air system. Adding new pieces downstream can be […]
Why Dry Compressed Air? Moisture is the enemy of productivity in your compressed air systems. Productivity is dependent on dry compressed air being adequately and consistently supplied to your tools and air system. The air around us is filled with little moisture particles that go unnoticed in our day-to-day lives. Once that air has been […]
