Description

Van Air Freedom compressed air dryer internalsThe Van Air D48 Freedom Single Tower Air Dryer can handle 1500 SCFM @ 100 psig. Van Air Systems is the originator of single tower dryer technology. Our single tower absorbent desiccant compressed air dryers prevent moisture in pipelines by suppressing the pressure dew point by 20°F or more from the inlet temperature. Water vapor is removed from the air as it passes through a bed of absorbent desiccant within the dryer. Our single tower absorbent desiccant dryers are adaptable to changing conditions and can be installed indoors or out. They are the most versatile and cost-effective air dryers manufactured today.

Van Air single tower compressed air dryers require minimal maintenance, have no moving parts, and are built to last. All metal surfaces of the vessel interior are primed and coated with polyurethane material. All exterior metal surfaces are protected with an enamel coating. All of this ensures that our single tower air dryers are able to withstand corrosion, chipping, and cracking in the most demanding environments. With a 10 year warranty, we offer the best vessel warranty in the business.

No electricity is needed to operate a Van Air single tower desiccant air dryer. Simply add the appropriate Van Air absorbent desiccant for effective and efficient operation. Typically, a properly sized single tower air dryer only needs to be filled with absorbent desiccant two or three times per year. In addition to the energy savings, operating costs are minimized since desiccant usage is based on actual air flow through the dryer.

  • Price of dryer does not include desiccant.
  • Dry-O-Lite desiccant is sold in 50 lb. bags, 50 lb. pails, 506 lb. metal drums and 2000 lb. bulk bags.

Declare your freedom from moisture-related problems, high energy costs and environmental safe operation. In addition to wide application versatility, make the Freedom dryer a winning choice for maximizing air system efficiency and profits.The Van Air Freedom Deliquescent Compressed Air Dryer offers the following benefits:

  • 10-year vessel warranty
  • No electricity required
  • Primer and enamel exterior finish
  • Exclusive anti-corrosion interior coating
  • Vessel fabricated to ASME Code
  • Includes Manual Drain Valve
  • Sight Window (to check desiccant)

FEATURES

Efficient Energy Free Compressed Air Dryer Operation

No electricity is needed for deliquescent dryer operation, the power is in the desiccant. In addition to this energy savings, operating costs are always at a minimum because desiccant usage is automatically regulated by air flow through the deliquescent dryer. When air flow decreases, desiccant use is reduced.

A pressure drop of less than 1% of operating pressure saves you even more money and energy because there's no need to boost pressure to compensate for pressure loss.

Van Air Freedom deliquescent dryers also have the lowest initial and operating cost of all air dryer types providing a fast return on your investment and long-term value for your money.

Environmentally Friendly

With the freedom dryer, you're free from the concerns and regulations of refrigerant usage. Rather than relying on a cooling process, the Freedom deliquescent dryer uses deliquescent desiccant for moisture removal.

Specially formulated for the longest life our deliquescent desiccant is non-toxic, non-polluting and adds no harmful acidity to the drain solution. It poses no hazard to ground water, living organisms or sewage treatment systems.

Application Versatility

Install it indoors or out, even in dusty or dirty conditions. The Van Air Freedom dryer provides a self-adjusting dew point for year round dependability, providing protection against liquid in the summer and freeze-ups in the winter.
