What is Air Dryer and the purpose of Air Dryer

An air dryer is equipment for drying system , it can remove moisture from the air. Compressed air drying systems or equipment are essential for facilities with a compressed air system since compressed air increases a space’s relative humidity.

Air dryers can work in different ways, it depends on the system what you have. However, they all draw moisture out of the air so that vapor does not condense and your system can continue running at maximum efficiency. Air dryers use adsorption, filtration, absorption, refrigeration and diffusion to eliminate excess moisture from air.

Air dryers can suppress the dew point of your compressed air by removing water from it. Compressed air often contains moisture, which can reach the dew point temperature under the right conditions. So once this dew point is reached , excess moisture forms, it can lead to water vapor condensing, allowing moisture to build up in the system then damage equipment. This can create big problems, such as leading to corrosion, causing frozen pipes and contaminating your products or equipment. So it is important for air dryer .
