Heatless dryer is the simplest method to obtain class 1 dryness in compressed air. Pressure dew point of -40°C and -70°C is easily obtainable at relatively low cost. It does not required heat to regenerate the desiccant, only required certain amount of purge air for regenerate. As a rule of thumb a -40°C PDP will require 15% - 17% purge loss and -70°C require 21% - 25% purge loss.
![]() In a normal 3000Nm³/hr heatless desiccant dryer, will require to purge 510Nm³/hr of dry air to regenerate the desiccant for achieve the -40°C dew point and 750Nm³/min purge loss to achieve -70°C dew point. All this losses is very expensive. To reduce the energy, we must reduce these purge loss but able to maintain the required dew point. ![]() With Filterall Heatless vacuum purge technology the purge loss is only 2.5% of the inlet flow for -40°C PDP dew point and 3.5% for -70°C PDP dew point. Example for -40°C PDP dew point, our heatless vacuum purge technology uses only 75m³/hr of dry air for regeneration insist of 510m³/hr for normal heatless desiccant dryer, and this flow is increase by expending the air to vacuum pressure to get the flow for regeneration. The vacuum flows here reach 375Nm³/hr. Therefore there is enough energy for a complete regeneration for the desiccant.
