Boge ED series refrigerant dryers
24 March, 2010 | Boge Compressors (Australia) Pty Ltd
One of the most economic methods of treating compressed air is with a refrigerant dryer. By cooling the compressed air down to near freezing point, the water and oil vapour are condensed and particles of dirt are bound together and resulting condensate is then separated from the air flow. In most cases, the pressure dewpoint need only be a few degrees lower than the ambient temperature to prevent condensate from forming in the pipes.
