Dual Tower Heat Reactivated Desiccant Air Dryer

Dual Tower Heat Reactivated Desiccant Air Dryer idhpe Dryer idbpe Dryer

Eliminate Water from Your Compressed Air System Moisture in compressed air is damaging. Without proper treatment, this vital energy source is a wet, gritty, acidic brew, silently destroying all that it comes in contact with. In today s competitive industrial markets, dry compressed air is a necessity not a luxury. The ICP Mojave Series of Heat Reactivated compressed air dryers hold the key for systems requiring high quality, reliable air in an energy efficient package. By installing an ICP idhpe Externally Heated or idbpe Blower Purge dryer the user will see immediate results in the removal of moisture and contaminants from their system. ICP Heated Dryers While there are many different applications where heated desiccant dryers apply, no two applications are exactly alike. Upon installation, there are a number of variables within the operating environment where the dryer may be located. Through ICP s process of Tuned Regeneration, the user can dovetail the dryer regeneration process to achieve optimal results. Overall Kw reduction and alleviation of dew point bumps can be realized through a process of tuning the interactive settings in the Logic Pro Master Controller. Understanding the Master Controller is so easy, most users are comfortable with system operation after only a few minutes of interaction. Because the ICP heated dryer is provided with three independent exhaust system temperature readouts, the user can quickly see the heating pattern of the regeneration tower. Adjustments to heating temperature, duration and cycling controls can all be made without the need for costly programming. Slight adjustments from winter to summer months can result in maintaining system peak operational efficiency, while reducing energy usage. Adjustments of cooling cycles can reduce dew point spikes and maximize air volume available to process.

System Flow Schematics ICP heat reactivated desiccant dryers use the adsorption method to remove moisture from compressed air. Pressure dew points of minus 40 0 F/C to as low as -70 0 F (-56 0 C) are achieved by directing the flow of saturated compressed air over a bed of desiccant. As the saturated compressed air flows through the drying tower, its moisture content adheres to the surface of the desiccant, resulting in reduced relative humidity and optimal dew points. The dried process air is final polished by 1 micron filter and sent to the plant air distribution system. idhpe Regeneration In order to fully and effectively regenerate the off line saturated tower of the idhpe series, ICP utilizes the most advanced and highly tuned procedure in the industry. A regulated amount of already dried process air (approx. 7%) is heated by way of a low watt density heater and passed down (counter current) through the desiccant bed. This heated purge air, exhausted to atmosphere, removes all of the collected moisture adhered to the desiccant from the previous drying Air Out Pre Exhaust Valve Air Out Out Air In Main Exhaust Valve Inlet Valve idbpe Regeneration The idbpe series of dryers also use heated air to regenerate the off line tower. However none of the process air is used during regeneration. A high efficient packaged blower assembly directs only heated atmospheric air counter current through the desiccant bed, removing all of the moisture that was collected during the previous drying cycle. Dewpoint spikes or heat bump can be avoided by tuning the regeneration cycle to meet the application. Pre Exhaust Valve Main Exhaust Valve Inlet Valve Air In idhpe and idbpe Features: Energy (KW) requirements are greatly reduced through the use of our exhaust system temperature controllers. Upon achievement of optimal temperatures in the regenerating tower, the heater system is turned off and the tower is cooled in preparation for its return to the drying process. Cooling and dry purge cycles can be customized to provide the best regeneration results. All ICP Heated Dryers are equipped with fail-safe, and heatsafe directional valves. Should there be a power failure or emergency stop the inlet air directional system will maintain its exact position, locking out the regeneration tower. This protects the user from allowing excessive heated purge to enter the distribution system, which can affect process and damage downstream pneumatic devices. Upon restoration of power, the retentive memory systematically steps the dryer back into process condition without interaction from the user, and without affecting the duration of the current regeneration.

Significant energy savings are realized by reduction of blower and heater KW consumption and purge. Digital Dew Point Readout High Humidity Alarm with Output 4-0 ma Output Standard Unit continuously displays outlet dew point quality of air, and is visible on all menu screens. High dew point alarm is adjustable and flashed on main menu should upset condition occur. Packaged Filters Complete Air Treatment System The significance of protecting a desiccant dryer system with suitable filtration cannot be understated. If incoming air is not filtered of oils, liquids and aerosols, contamination of the desiccant material will occur, leading to an eventual system failure. To keep your system operating at peak efficiency, ICP recommends factory installed filtration systems, designed and matched directly to the dryer and mounted on a common base. The resulting package reflects a complete air treatment system which provides easier installation, single point connections and data acquisition functions from a single Logic Pro control system. All ICP Heat Reactivated Air Dryers come complete with the pre and after filters mounted and piped. The Grade 6 coalescing pre filter (equipped with and auto drain/isolation service valve) and pressure differential indicator, ensures that oil aerosols and bulk liquids do not enter the inlet flow and contaminate the desiccant bed. The 1 micron particulate after-filter will remove any solids for truly polished and ultra clean, dry compressed air. Depending on your application, ICP can supply an assortment of filter configurations to suit your specific needs.
