A he same ime, a small porion of he dry air produc is redireced along he lengh of he fibers o sweep ou he waer vapor laden air which has permeaed he membrane. The moisure-laden sweep gas is hen vened o he amosphere, and clean, dry air is supplied o he applicaion. The drying power of he membrane is conrolled by varying he compressed air flow rae and pressure. The Balson Membrane Air Dryer is designed o operae coninuously, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The only mainenance required is changing he prefiler carridge wice a year. This semi-annual mainenance akes approximaely 5 minues. Membrane Balson Membrane combine a superior coalescing echnology wih a proven, innovaive membrane sysem o supply clean, dry compressed air wih dewpoins as low as -40 F (-40 C). The Membrane Air Dryers are engineered for easy insallaion, operaion, and long erm reliabiliy.

The liquids removed by he filer carridge coninuously drip from he filer carridge ino he boom of he housing, where hey are auomaically empied by an auodrain assembly (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). The air leaving he prefiler, herefore, is laden only wih waer vapor, which will be removed in he membrane module. The waer vapor in he compressed air is removed by he principle of selecive permeaion hrough a membrane (see Fig. 3). The membrane module consiss of bundles of hollow membrane fibers (see Fig. 4), each permeable only o waer vapor. As he compressed air passes hrough he cener of hese fibers, waer vapor permeaes hrough he walls of he fiber, and dry air exis from he oher end of he fiber. A small porion of he dry air (regeneraion flow) is redireced along he lengh of he membrane fiber o carry away he moisure-laden air which surrounds he membrane fibers.

10 Membrane for Coordinae Measuremen Machines Problems ha cause cosly repairs o Coordinae Measuremen Machines: A CMM has 26 highly sensiive air bearings per machine. If oil and moisure are presen in he air sysem supplying he air bearings, he.5mm hole in he boom of he air bearing will become clogged producing a drag in he machine. As he resisance builds, i causes hyseresis in he measuremens producing an inaccurae measuremen. If his problem is allowed o coninue, he bearing will drag on he aluminum ways and wear a groove in he machine. Once a groove develops, he air bearing will no produce lif if air is leaking ou hrough he groove in he machine ways. To correc he problem, a complee rebuild of he machine a he facory is necessary which can be as cosly as purchasing a new machine. If he problem is caugh in ime, a service eam will be required o come o he faciliy o repair he machine. The eam will remove he bearings and he holes and grooves are cleaned wih alcohol. Each bearing is hen resurfaced wih gri paper. Badly corroded or pied air bearings are replaced a a cos of $ per bearing. Air hoses are also replaced, and all air passages are cleaned. The machine is hen reassembled, and he ime-consuming and cosly ask of recalibraing he machine wih he ball bar and a B89 es is performed as he final sep in repairing he machine. How o avoid cosly mainenance problems: Many repairs average upwards of $5, These cosly repairs and downime can easily be avoided by insalling a Balson high efficiency Membrane Air Dryer.

12 5000 Series Smar Dryer Membrane Why buy a Balson SMART Dryer TM insead of a cycling refrigeran air dryer? The Balson SMART Dryer will save YOU money and offer beer performance! All Balson SMART Dryers require no elecriciy. All air dryers are sized based on he maximum capaciy oupu of a compressed air sysem wih inle condiions assumed o be 100 F (38 C) inle emperaure, 100 psig (7 barg) inle pressure and 100 F (38 C) ambien emperaure. In he majoriy of insallaions, i is unlikely air dryers will be required o operae under hese exreme condiions. Mos imporanly, he majoriy of compressed air sysems are no operaing a he maximum oupu capaciy. Refrigeran and desiccan air dryers, sized o mee hese operaing condiions are designed o run coninuously regardless of he sysem s demands, when in fac he acual sysem condiions are far less. The resul is significan operaing coss in wased energy and wear and ear on refrigeran compressors, cooling sysems, drains and oher componenry. In a ypical manufacuring plan operaing one 8 hour shif wih a 100 SCFM (170 Nm 3 /Hr) compressor sysem running a 75% capaciy (on average over he 8 hour shif), a ypical non-cycling refrigeran air dryer would cos $716 in jus elecrical coss alone, compared o he Balson SMART Dryer wih only $436 in elecrical coss. If you facor in he annual mainenance coss of $600 for a non-cycling refrigeran dryer compared o $130 for he Balson SMART Dryer, here is a oal annual savings of over $750. Recenly, refrigeran manufacurers have responded o his issue by developing a cycling air dryer which cools a cold sorage hea sink reservoir. Once he reservoir is cooled o he minimum emperaure he compressor (refrigeran) is shu off. The compressor cycles back on when he emperaure of he sorage reservoir reaches a prese upper limi. This reduces he oal energy consumpion of he dryer however i could produce significan variaions in oupu dewpoins. The Balson SMART Dryer does no require refrigeran, compressors, cooling sysems or oher componenry ha carries high operaing coss (energy) and mainenance coss. The Balson SMART Dryer uilizes sophisicaed echnology o monior he sysem parameers and auomaically adjuss he regeneraive sweep flow as required. The variable sweep sysem resuls in significan energy savings and low operaing coss wih no flucuaion in oupu dewpoins. In a ypical manufacuring plan operaing an 8 hour shif wih 100 SCFM (170 Nm 3 /Hr) compressor sysem 232 running a 75% capaciy (on average over he 8 hour shif), a ypical cycling refrigeran air dryer would cos $ in elecrical coss alone, compared o he Balson SMART Dryer wih only $ in elecrical coss.
