Trident Twin Tower Heatless Desiccant Air Dryers
Moisture in compressed air is not a small problem. It can corrode piping, damage pneumatic tools and equipment, contaminate end products, and cause expensive downtime. The Trident Twin Tower Heatless Desiccant Air Dryers (TH Series) are built to eliminate that risk by delivering ultra-dry compressed air in demanding industrial environments. If your operation depends on clean, dry air for reliability and product quality, the TH Series is designed to keep your system protected and performing consistently.
These dryers use a proven twin tower heatless desiccant design to remove water vapor from compressed air and deliver a -40°F pressure dew point (standard), with an optional -94°F dew point available for applications that require even drier air. That level of dryness helps protect downstream components, reduce maintenance issues, and improve overall system performance in moisture-sensitive operations.
Why the Trident TH Series Stands Out
The TH Series is built for customers who need a dependable, industrial-grade heatless desiccant air dryer without unnecessary complexity. Trident combines rugged construction, intelligent controls, and practical serviceability into a dryer platform made for real-world compressed air systems.
Whether you are running a manufacturing line, protecting instrumentation, or supporting processes where moisture control is critical, the TH Series offers the kind of consistent drying performance that helps prevent equipment damage and process interruptions.
Key Features & Benefits
- Twin tower heatless desiccant drying for continuous dry air delivery
- -40°F pressure dew point standard
- Optional -94°F pressure dew point for ultra-dry air requirements
- Low-pressure-drop valve design for efficient system operation
- Advanced PLC controls for cycle management and monitoring
- NEMA 4 control panel for industrial durability
- Status indicators, run hours, and service alerts for easier maintenance tracking
- Power-loss memory for automatic cycle recovery after outages
- Compressor synchronization capability to reduce unnecessary purge loss
- Optional Energy Saving Dew Point Control to help reduce energy consumption
- Heavy-duty aluminum and steel construction
- ASME-coded pressure vessels
- UL/cUL compliant design
- USA-made activated alumina desiccant
- Lifting lugs and forklift pockets for easier transport and installation
How Trident Twin Tower Heatless Desiccant Air Dryers Work
The TH Series uses a classic and highly effective twin tower drying process. One tower is online drying compressed air while the second tower is offline regenerating. After a timed cycle, the towers switch roles. This alternating design allows the dryer to provide a continuous flow of dry compressed air without stopping production.
In heatless desiccant dryers, regeneration is achieved using a portion of the already-dried compressed air (purge air). That purge air expands through the offline tower and removes the moisture collected by the desiccant. This proven method keeps the system simple, reliable, and well-suited for industrial duty where uptime matters.
Trident’s TH Series is designed around this practical operating principle, with PLC-based control of the drying and regeneration cycle to maintain dependable performance.
Filtration Matters for Dryer Performance
To get the best results from any desiccant dryer, proper filtration is essential, and the TH Series is no exception. Trident’s recommended setup includes:
- A high-efficiency pre-filter (such as a 0.01 micron coalescing filter) upstream of the dryer to remove liquid water, oil aerosols, and particulates before they reach the desiccant bed
- A final filter downstream of the dryer to capture any particulate carryover and protect downstream equipment
- Routine filter element maintenance to preserve airflow, protect the desiccant, and maintain dew point performance
This filtration approach helps extend desiccant life, protects internal components, and supports stable dryer operation over time.
Built for Industrial Service and Long-Term Reliability
The Trident TH Series is engineered for more than just specifications on paper. It is built to perform in real compressed air systems where durability and serviceability matter every day. Industrial users benefit from rugged vessel construction, weather-resistant control panel protection, and a layout designed to support maintenance and operation.
For easier service, Trident also offers a three-valve bypass option, and a bypass arrangement is strongly recommended when installing the dryer. A bypass helps reduce downtime during maintenance tasks such as filter changes or service checks, making it easier to keep your plant running.
TH Series Models, Flow Range & Core Specifications
The Trident Twin Tower Heatless Desiccant Air Dryers cover a wide range of industrial air demands, with models spanning approximately 70 to 1000 SCFM. This makes the TH Series a flexible solution for small-to-large compressed air systems needing dependable moisture removal.
