Aircel ABP Heated Blower Purge Regenerative Desiccant Dryers ABP Series

The Aircel ABP (800 -15,000 scfm) is Aircel’s new blower purge heat reactivated dual tower regenerative air dryer with standard Energy Management System (EMS) for solid peace-of-mind energy savings and consistant operation automatically controlled via an Allen Bradley PLC and a 6” LCD Color Touch Screen. Why is the ABP Series different? For added energy savings the ABP Series uses a high efficiency blower to take in ambient air required during the heat regeneration cycle to desorb moisture from the desiccant, no compressed air is used during this phase. Dry compressed air is used during the dry air cooling regeneration period for reduced heat and dew point spike at tower switchover. This amounts to an average process air use of 2% of the rated capacity of the dryer. Aircel’s unique parallel cooling mode further reduces the heat and dew point spike prior to tower switchover. During the parallel cooling mode both inlet valves are open for a 10 minute period and divert half-load to each tower further cooling the previously regenerated desiccant bed with a larger volume of air.
