Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the main benefit of a desiccant air dryer for compressor?
A: Removes water vapor from compressed air, preventing corrosion, improving product quality, and protecting downstream equipment.
Q2: How often should the desiccant be replaced?
A: Typically every 1–2 years, depending on usage, humidity, and regeneration type.
Q3: Can the desiccant be regenerated?
A: Yes. Heatless models use purge air, while heated models apply external heat for regeneration.
Q4: How does it compare to refrigerated dryers?
A: Desiccant dryers achieve much lower dew points (-40°C or lower), suitable for critical or sub-zero environments.
Q5: Is customization available?
A: Yes. We offer custom flow rates, voltages, inlet/outlet sizes, and control systems.
