Air Dryers are used to dry compressed air to ensure no moisture is present in the compressed air before it is used in a production or a process application. Broadly, there are two types of air dryers namely, refrigerated and desiccant. These two types differ in the dewpoint they can achieve. Refrigerated dryers are used in low criticality processes such as for instrumentation air and desiccant dryers are used in high criticality operations such as process air. Parker offers industry leading low purge loss solutions for its desiccant dryer range with the use of vacuums and dewpoint detection systems.
