An air dryer assembly for a motor vehicle air supply system, comprising:a cartridge having a cup shaped outer shell, said outer shell affixed to a load plate having air flow passages therethrough, said load plate having a first threaded means, said cartridge having a desiccant material therein for removing water from air passing through said air supply system. A pamplet by Atlantic Research Corporation; "Desiccant Type Desomatic Adsorption Dryers for Compressed Air, Gases, Liquids, and Process Streams;" Sep., 1967. In an internally heated regeneration dryer the process air enters the dryer through the inlet piping, is then dried as it passes through the desiccant bed, and discharges through the outlet piping as dry air. Integrated auxiliary equipment and systems: robots, blending and reclaim equipment, drying and conveying equipment, granulators, chillers, cooling towers, temperature control units, water filtration systems. A pamphlet by Ingersoll-Rand; "Thermal Mass Air Dryers for Desert Dry Compressed Air;" May, 1972. Dry Air Systems, Inc. offers air drying systems that improve overall system reliability and its related pneumatic controls and devices. The chart below illustrates the amount of water accumulated during a 24-hour period. All air systems trap and contain water moisture and contaminants. Dew point is a measure of dryness; it describes how much water vapor is present and tells us how cold the compressed air can get before liquid water will form. Drying capacity is the maximum volume of air through dryer; typically given at 100 psig.
tair dryer dessicant bed
A desiccant type air dryer assembly having an integral purge volume with a body assembly and a removable desiccant cartridge. Moisture in compressed air systems unchecked harms or destroys delicate pneumatic controls. generating heated atmospheric air. Mueller has extensive experience selecting, sizing, and maintaining desiccant dryers for use in the chemical, petrochemical, power generation, food and beverage and other industries. A pamplet by Atlantic Research Corporation; "Desiccant Type Desomatic Adsorption Dryers for Compressed Air, Gases, Liquids, and Process Streams;" Sep., 1967. Choices for regeneration method include heatless regeneration, internally heated regeneration, and externally heated regeneration. Other technologies include membrane and in-line compressed air dryers. drying said other pre-compression desiccant bed with the heated air radially. Choices for regeneration method include heatless regeneration, internally heated regeneration, and externally heated regeneration. Mueller has extensive experience selecting, sizing, and maintaining desiccant dryers for use in the chemical, petrochemical, power generation, food and beverage and other industries.The maximum pressure refers to the maximum rated inlet pressure of dryer. Stages include single stage and double stage. conveying dried air from said pre-compression tubular desiccant bed adsorption unit to an inlet of a gas compression machine. a body assembly having a supply port and a discharge port for connection with said air supply system and a mounting surface enabling said cartridge load plate to be mated to said body assembly whereby said cartridge and said body assembly cooperate to form air flow passageways for said air passing through said air dryer assembly, said body assembly having a central bore passing through said body assembly and opening in said body assembly mounting surface, said central bore being aligned with said cartridge load plate first threaded means when said cartridge and said body assembly are mated together, and a retention bolt positioned through said body assembly central bore and having second threaded means engaging said cartridge load plate first threaded means thereby fastening said cartridge and said load plate assembly, said retention bolt having a driving head accessible for rotating said retention bolt, said retention bolt having a hollow interior passage communicating with said cartridge desiccant material and to said discharge port of said air dryer, said hollow interior passage conducting air to said discharge port after passing through said desiccant material. The maximum pressure refers to the maximum rated inlet pressure of dryer. Drying capacity is the maximum volume of air through dryer; typically given at 100 psig. Stages include single stage and double stage. The maximum pressure refers to the maximum rated inlet pressure of dryer. regenerating the other pre-compression desiccant bed adsorption unit by. An automatic condensate drain automatically senses the level or amount of removed moisture and automatically drains it off.
