Air Dryers
FeaturesAir Dryers
Features
- Designed for locomotive use : Meets all Environmental and functional specifications for the Railroad industry. This dryer will withstand the vibrations, temperature in a locomotive platform out side the locomotive.
- Operates over a wide Voltage range.
- Non volatile memory system - The dryer is completely switched off when the compressor is off and restarts where the cycle was stopped. This increases the life of the dryer.
- Automatic Purge control valve : Adjusts purge air depending on the compressed air flow and pressure. This ensures guaranteed dew point at optimized purge loss. This also reduces compressor usage.
- Fixed Volume Automatic Drain valve drains condensate without wasting much of compressed air. It has a fail safe design.
- Optimised design to meet Input-output dewpoint depression requirement.
- Desiccant health indicator for each desiccant tower.
- Pre-filter health indicator.
- Low MTTR
- High MTBF
- All aluminum construction for corrosion free long life.
- Slide-In mount : The dryer can be slided in and out for service and installation in minutes, when installed in the mounting bracket (e.g. Trident MB1).
- Small size
- Dewpoint depression of 30oC at design airflow and 15oC at worst case of airflow and ambient temperature.
- Low pressure drop of 3% of inlet pressure at design air flow.
