Company Announcement - Atlas Copco’s range of small heatless desiccant dryers offer an array advantages that makes CD2-5 range particularly suitable for point of use and OEM applications. The CD2-5 dryers, available from 2 l/s (4 cfm) to 5 l/s (11 cfm) offer high installation flexibility, have a very small footprint, utilise desiccant cartridges that include an integrated dust filter, and come equipped with an electronic controller with the possibility for remote monitoring.
“Installation versatility is a key requirement for units of this size,” explain Charl Ackerman, Atlas Copco South Africa Business Line Manager Industrial Air Division. “The fact that the unit can be installed both horizontally as well as vertically presents a significant benefit. In addition, the multi-port inlet, outlet and integrated after-filtration ensure that the package is a highly attractive proposition, especially when space is at a premium.” The unit is run via an electronic timer controller, which provides the possibility of remote monitoring and purge cycle pause (via a remote signal) as standard. “On top of this, all units are shipped with a series of interchangeable purge nozzles in order for the most optimum performance which can be obtained across a wide variety of operating conditions,” adds Ackerman.
Reliable operation and performance is achieved through the use of proven working principals and quality components of the Atlas Copco heatless dryers. The high strength aluminium profiles are anodised to prevent corrosion; the molecular sieve desiccant ensures a reliable pressure dew point down to a minimum of –70°C (-100°F). The smaller CD2-5 dryers complement the larger range of Atlas Copco dryers which comprises 17 different models.
It is a clear ambition of Atlas Copco to be able to provide every customer with a complete compressed air solution, not simply an air compressor. ”Extending the offer to include all elements of a compressed air system i.e. filters, dryers, etc., backed by a global aftermarket support structure, ensures that Atlas Copco remains first in mind, first in choice,” concludes Ackerman.
