K-MT 1-8 Series Heatless Compressed Air Dryer

The Parker K-MT 1-8 range of heatless adsorption dryers are designed to dry industrial compressed air reliably and efficiently down to a pressure dew point of -40°C (-25°C and -70°C options available). The units are compact and can be installed either free-standing or wall mounted. They come equipped with integrated high performance OIL-X pre- and after filtration and are capable of volume flows up to 86 m³/h in a system operating at 7 barg (100 psig).

Features
• Pressure dew points down to -40°C (-25°C and -70°C options available)

• Volume flows up to 86 m³/h @ 7 barg (100 psig)

• High performance pre- and after filters installed as standard

• Energy saving dew point dependent switching (DDS) as an option

Benefits
• Highest quality air

• Compact and space saving

• Energy efficient

• Very flexible due to a wide range of options and accessories

Energy Savings
Where an application calls for a unit able to cope with variations in operating pressure and load, the installation of a dew point sensor at the outlet of the dryer is available as an option. In such an operating mode, the changeover cycle between chambers only takes place when required, and is dependent on the required dew point being achieved. Only upon reaching this adjustable set dew point, does changeover to the regenerated chamber occur. This feature enables the drying phase to be lengthened and thus avoids the unnecessary use of purge air for regeneration and consequently provides energy savings.

Compressed air can be selectively dried to meet a dew point of -25°C down to -70°C.

Sizing and Selection
To ensure quoted air purity performance is met, a compressed air dryer must be sized correctly for minimum operating pressure, maximum inlet temperature and maximum inlet flow rate using the correction factors found in the Product Information Sheet.
