Air Dryers & Main Line Filters
Air preparation systems play a vital role in maintaining efficient and reliable pneumatic operations through several key components. The system begins with aftercoolers, available in both air-cooled and water-cooled variants, which reduce compressed air temperatures to 40°C or lower to prevent heat damage to downstream equipment.
The air drying system incorporates multiple technologies to remove moisture. Membrane air dryers provide continuous operation for flows from 10 to 1000 L/min (ANR). Refrigerated air dryers offer temperature-adjusted outlet air, with specialized models for high inlet temperatures and regional variants for Asia, Europe, and North America. Heatless regenerative dryers round out the drying options for specific applications.
Auto drain valves automatically discharge accumulated condensate, including viscous drainage, without manual intervention. The product line includes models like the AD402/600 series starting at $57.40, with various port sizes and configurations available. Special variants feature enhanced durability and corrosion resistance for demanding environments.
Main line filtration employs a multi-stage approach to contaminant removal. Advanced filters can capture particles as small as 0.01 micron, while high-capacity models handle larger volumes. The comprehensive range includes:
- AM series for general filtration
- AMG series for enhanced particle removal
- AMD series for specialized applications
- AMH series for high-pressure systems
- AME series for specific environments
- AFF series for fine filtration
- AMF series for mist removal
- AFW series for water separation
This integrated approach to air preparation, combining cooling, drying, drainage, and filtration, ensures optimal pneumatic system performance. Each component is precisely engineered to work in concert, providing clean, dry, temperature-controlled air that extends equipment life and maintains operational efficiency.
