Heating

Hot air directly from the compressor enters the inlet of the
Sahara-Pak HC and is directed by the inlet 2-way valves into
the regenerating tower. This hot, thirsty air regenerates the
bulk of the water from the desiccant. The air is then directed
into the aftercooler where it is cooled, the coalescing separator
where liquid water is removed through the drain trap system,
then into the drying tower where the air is actually dried to its
final low dew point. The heating cycle lasts 90 minutes.
