How a Refrigerated Air Dryer Works

A refrigerated air dryer cools compressed air to condense water vapour, protecting tools and processes from moisture damage.

The Cooling Cycle

Warm, saturated air passes through a heat exchanger cooled by refrigerant, and water condenses out as the temperature drops.

Dew Point Target

Refrigerated dryers typically deliver a pressure dew point around three degrees Celsius, suitable for general industrial air.

Components and Care

Refrigerant circuits, condensate drains and heat exchangers need periodic cleaning to maintain drying performance.
