A
Dryer can remove moisture from compressed air to a certain
degree of dryness and this is referred to as pressure dew
point. Different types of dryers can achieve different
dew points and, for the most part, the drier air needs to be,
the more expensive it is to dry. (The obvious exception to
this is the Atlas Copco MD Series heat of compression dryer
that uses the energy of a 100 watt light bulb, yet achieves
incredibly low pressure dew points.)
Gulf Atlantic
Equipment Company is proud to offer the finest dryers
on Earth, properly applied and competitively priced.
• Refrigerated
Dryers condense
the moisture out of the air and drain it away as liquid.
They are limited to about 35° F because the water would
freeze if it got any colder.
• Desiccant
Dryers adsorb the moisture
in the compressed air and remove it while still suspended
as vapor. They are typically applied at about -40° F,
but can get to -100 and below.
• Membrane
Dryers use permeability to separate the moisture from
the air and can also achieve low dew points.
And the list goes
on. The selection is made on personal preference, the dryness
required, and cost, which should include operating and electrical
or utility costs.
The
Atlas Copco FX Series of refrigerated air dryers offers
better efficiency, lower pressure drops,
higher reliability, and environmentally friendly designs
at an economical price.

air contains contaminants, including water or moisture,
that must be removed if the equipment it supplies is to
