What are compressed air dryers for?
Air is a colourless, odourless, tasteless mixture of many gases, primarily nitrogen and oxygen. It is naturally contaminated with solid particles, such as dust, sand, soot and salt crystals. This contamination varies with differing environments and altitudes.
Water vapour is another natural ingredient that can be found in variable amounts in the air. The amount of water vapour and contamination of the air plays a vital role in the compression process and in the quality of the air delivered by the compressor.
The damaging and corrosive properties of water are well known. Untreated air at atmospheric pressure contains large amounts of water and other contaminants such as oil droplets and dirt particles.
When the air is compressed the concentration of moisture and other contaminants increases. If allowed to remain in the system, this corrosive mixture has a detrimental effect on pneumatic equipment, causing unnecessary production downtime, product spoilage and reduced equipment life.
Compressed air dryers are used to remove moisture from the compression process, protecting equipment and products from harm and ensuring clean, dry air quality.
Why use a compressed air dryer?
Safe operation
Untreated air can cause corrosion and damage to your pipework and the internal structure of your air compressor. This can eventually lead to a system breakdown, costing you time and money. Compressed air dryer will help to keep your system running damage-free and your operation safe and reliable with long term results.
High-quality end-product
Whatever your application, you need to be sure that your end-product is of high quality. Air that contains water vapour can cause product spoilage which can be very costly to businesses. Compressed air dryer ensures that air is pure and dry before it reaches the point of use.
Peace of mind
Modern production systems and processes demand high quality compressed air, which is defined in the 6 classes outlined in international standard ISO 8573- 1:2010. These are only achievable with filtration, water separation and drying. Trust powerful compressed air dryers to offer complete reassurance and total peace of mind for your business.
First-class air treatment efficiency
For CompAir, quality and efficiency are just as important for compressed air treatment as they are for compressed air generation.
Just like CompAir compressors, the CD-Series refrigerant dryers also provide a consistently high performance with optimum efficiency for many industrial compressed air applications. They are carefully selected depending on working conditions with continuous dew point monitoring enabling reliable operation with the lowest possible pressure losses and running costs. When it comes to compressed air treatment, modern, reliable technology and compact dimensions make the CD-Series the preferred choice for every application.
The CD-series refrigerant dryers deliver a comprehensive, cost-effective solution to multiple applications across a wide range of sectors including automotive, manufacturing, petrochemical, oil and gas, dry cleaning and light processing to name a few.
Impressive return on investment and operational reliability
The use of clean dry compressed air ensures high levels of reliability, guarantees that quality standards are met, and can reduce production costs. CompAir offer a range of solutions for drying utilising modern cooling technology, the CD series cater for a wide range of airflows with models from CD4F to CD1920F covering air flow rates from 0.42 m³/min to 191.67 m³/min.

Modular Desiccant Dryer
High-performance desiccant air treatment
Desiccant technology
Desiccant dryers work on the principle of moisture always migrating to the driest medium possible. Therefore, water vapour is removed from compressed air by passing it over an adsorbent desiccant material.
As the air contacts the adsorbent material, water vapour transfers from the wet air to the dry desiccant, however, adsorbent materials have a fixed adsorption capacity and once this capacity is reached, they must be regenerated or replaced.
Therefore, to provide a continuous supply of clean, dry compressed air, adsorbent dryers utilise two chambers of desiccant material and at any one time, whilst one chamber is on-line, drying the incoming compressed air, the other is either off-line, being regenerated or is re-pressurised, ready to come on-line.
All desiccant dryers remove water in this manner. The energy consumed by a desiccant dryer can be directly attributed to the method used to regenerate the adsorbent material. The CompAir A-Series dryers utilise the heatless PSA method to regenerate the adsorbent material.
The A Series utilises the latest technology from CompAir to provide an energy efficient solution at the lowest life cycle costs. The same quality, performance and efficiency standards delivered by the compressors can now be enjoyed from the air treatment range, including the below advantages:
- Robust and reliable industry-proven design
- Suitable for all industries and applications - some desiccant dryer regeneration methods prevent their use in certain industries/applications
- Lower capital investment and reduced complexity compared to other dryer regeneration methods
- Lower maintenance costs in comparison to other dryer regeneration methods
- No heat, heaters, or heat-related issues
The new downstream portfolio manufactured by CompAir utilising the latest technology, provides an energy efficient solution at lowest life cycle costs. The same quality, performance and efficiency standards delivered by the compressors can now be enjoyed from the air treatment range.
Investment in a manufacturing site in addition to the support teams, ensures that compressed air operators don’t need to worry about the quality of their compressed air – quality that is key to ensuring maximum production efficiency and investment protection.
