WET COMPRESSED AIR
Compressed air must be dried. This is an undeniable statement of fact. Today's modern industry can no longer tolerate the problems of wet, dirty compressed air. Wet air causes rust, pitting, blockages, and freeze-ups, with resultant component failure and product rejection. Wet air is a major contributor of downtime, causing millions of pounds of lost production.
The cost of wet air varies with each and every application. However, the cost of wet air is always many times greater than the cost of a dryer. Compressed air dryers pay for themselves, many times over, by increasing production, reducing downtime and adding to your bottom line. The tough question you have to answer is which type of dryer is the best choice for your application.
THE SOLUTION
If your air is used indoors for general shop air and does not encounter any special conditions, the dewpoint from a refrigerant dryer should be adequate. Outdoor lines, instruments, and special applications require the dewpoint from a desiccant dryer.
Compressed air applications range from general purpose shop air to
breathing air - with a wide range of applications in between. Because the application determines the type of
air treatment required, the first step in meeting your air treatment needs is to look closely and specifically at your air quality requirements.

A dessicant dryer with correct filtration removes all imourities, dewpoint as low as -60 deg, often this is re-heated with heat regenerative desiccant dryers.
