Compressed Air Dryers
Refrigerant Compressed Air Dryer
Non Cycling Refrigeration Dryers
Energy Efficient CD-Series
First-class air treatment efficiency
The CD-Series refrigerant dryers are carefully selected depending on working conditions with continuous dew point monitoring enabling reliable operation with the lowest possible pressure losses and running costs.
This range offers a wide range of kW sizes and caters for a larger range of airflows than the cycling dryer range.
The non-cycling dryer is ideal for constant airflow demand, where the compressed air demand on the network stays the same over time.
These all new dryers deliver consistent high performance along side optimised energy efficiency, increased environmental credentials and a lower total cost of ownership.
They are a step ahead of both the EU and the competition – supporting sustainability with low GWP refrigerants for ISO Class 4 (+3°C PDP) markets.
Compared to previous models, this next-generation of dryers deliver:
Reduced power consumption of up to 10%
Up to 27% lower pressure drop
Significant footprint reduction of up to 40%
CompAir CD-series refrigerant dryers deliver acomprehensive, cost-effective solution to multipleapplications across a wide range of sectors includingautomotive, manufacturing, petrochemical, oil and gas, dry cleaning and light processing to name a few.
Optimum efficiency by Design
These dryers have been designed to provideclean, dry air which means less corrosion in the airdistribution system, less damage to air-powered tools, and reduced potential for contamination in the productionprocess. The design features of CompAir CD dryers notonly ensure constant dew point at all load levels, butalso deliver continuous dry air performance that meets the most challenging ISO8573 1 and ISO7183 industry standards.

1. Compressed Air Dryers (Overview)
Compressed air dryers are devices used to remove moisture from compressed air. Moisture can lead to:
Rust and corrosion in pipelines
Damage to pneumatic tools
Poor product quality in sensitive industries
Main Types:
Refrigerated dryers
Desiccant (adsorption) dryers
Membrane dryers
2. Refrigerant Compressed Air Dryer
A refrigerant (refrigerated) compressed air dryer works by cooling the compressed air so that moisture condenses and can be removed.
How It Works:
Warm compressed air enters the dryer
Air is cooled using a refrigeration system
Water vapor condenses into liquid
Condensate is separated and drained
Key Features:
Pressure dew point: +2°C to +10°C
Energy-efficient and cost-effective
Simple operation
Applications:
General manufacturing
Automotive workshops
Textile and engineering industries
3. Non-Cycling Refrigeration Dryers
A non-cycling refrigeration dryer is a type of refrigerated dryer where the refrigeration system runs continuously, regardless of air demand.
Key Characteristics:
Compressor runs all the time
Provides constant cooling and stable dew point
Simple design with fewer control variations
Advantages:
Consistent performance
Reliable in steady-load applications
Lower risk of temperature fluctuations
Disadvantages:
Higher energy consumption
Less efficient when air demand is low
Best For:
Applications with constant air flow demand
Industries needing stable moisture control
