DESICCANT DRYER RANGE
(BD HEAT REACTIVATION DRYERS)

BD
Heat reactivated adsorption
dryers
When absolutely dry
air is essential
In many
applications, absolutely dry air is a must. Instrument air, processes with
rapid air expansion, dry powder conveying, ...
Many methods have
been devised to dry air but the only efficient way to reduce the risks of water
induced problems and to totally remove the water is the adsorption process used
in the Atlas Copco BD adsorption dryer. Dewpoints as low as -70°C can be
reached.

Meeting the highest air purification criteria

When
high air quality criteria are paramount, the BD adsorption dryer from Atlas
Copco is your best option.
In an optimal
compressed air system, the air dryer is only one of several components, each
working on a specific parameter. It is preferred to cool the air as much as
possible before it enters the dryer. An air receiver or cyclone separator, with
condensate drain, will remove any condensate. With oil-injected compressors, a
de-oiling filter is required.
Atlas Copco BD dryers
efficiently reduce the risk of water induced problems. A subsequent dust filter
could be required to remove dust produced by the drying agent.

Standard options

Considerable energy
savings with dewpoint control
Normally the dryer moves
the drying operation from one tower to the other on a regular basis.
Alternatively, this movement can be controlled by a dewpoint sensor
measurement. When the dewpoint reaches a preset point the dryer will
automatically switch towers.
This results in an extension of the drying time
and considerable energy saving when the dryer is not operating at maximum
capability. Energy savings are high and can be as much as 70%. The dewpoint
will be measured continuously and the actual dewpoint will be shown on the
dryer display.

Filter Pack
Optional pre- and after-filters ensure that the compressed air meets the highest air purity standards.
- The
pre-assembled filters, PD and DDp have a differential pressure alarm connected
to the display. An indication will be given on the display when it is time to
replace the filter element.
- The
pre-assembled PD filter range comprises high efficiency coalescing filters,
removing liquid water and oil aerosol to 0.01 mg/m (0.01 ppm) and particles
down to 0.01 micron.
- The
after assembled DDp filter range consists of particulate filters for dust
protection, removing particles down to 1 micron
- Several IN and OUTLET configuration
possibilities by simply turning the tubes. This simplifies the installation and
reduces floor space.
