What Is Compressed Air Treatment and Why Is It Important?

Compressed air treatment is a method that involves purifying and dehumidifying the air before it enters the compressor. During compression, air accumulates moisture, oil, and other contaminants that can have a negative impact on equipment performance and product quality.

An efficient and intelligent compressed air system goes beyond high-quality air compressors. It is a combination of a range of expertise and products related to air generation, filtering, drying, condensation, and purification. With an efficient air treatment process, your system will experience extended equipment lifespan, improved operational efficiency, and the preservation of product integrity.


Types of Compressed Air Treatment

Different methods can be used to remove the moisture content of compressed air. Gardner Denver compressed air types include the following products:

Refrigerated Air Dryer

Quality and efficiency are important for compressed air treatment, and using refrigerated air dryers efficiently provides a continuous supply of dry air. The refrigeration system cools the incoming compressed air, allowing the water to condensate and drain.

Desiccant Air Dryer

Desiccant dryers (also knows as adsorption dryers) work on the principle of moisture always migrating to the driest medium possible. Therefore, water vapour is removed from compressed air by passing it over an adsorbent desiccant material. As the air contacts the adsorbent material, water vapour transfers from the wet air to the dry desiccant

Air Filters

Gardner Denver filters provide dependability in the air system to block any contamination entering the air lines to prevent damage.
