Details make the difference

 1  warm, moisture saturated compressed air is cooled down to +3 °C. The generously dimensioned heat exchanger enables particularly effective cooling, while the flow resistance is reduced to an absolute minimum.

 2  Contrary to conventional systems, the movement of air through the heat exchanger follows a downward pattern. The effects of gravity produce an exceptionally high droplet separartion efficiency. In the large condensate collection space, the flow velocity is greatly reduced. Re-entraining of previously separated droplets is thus reliably prevented.

 3  Before leaving the dryer unit, the dried, cold compressed air is reheated in an air-to-air heat exchanger. During this process, the relative humidity of the air is lowered considerably and the same time up to 60 % of the cooling energy is recovered.

 4  The separated condensate is discharged, without wastage of compressed air, from the DRYPOINT^® RA refrigeration dryer into the level-controlled BEKOMAT^® condensate drain. It can then be treated according to requirements, for example, in an ÖWAMAT ^® oil/water separation system or a BEKOSPLIT^® emulsion splitting plant.
