  • Page 17 EN | User Manual Technical product description Adsorption Via a compressor, humid compressed air is supplied to the upstream fi lter. From here, the compressed air fl ows upwards through the absorption chamber, which is pressurised. In so doing, the drying agent dehumidifi es the air. The dry compressed air is supplied to the pipe network via the downstream fi lter.
  • Page 18 EN | User Manual Technical product description Pressure build-up phase After dehumidifi cation the pressure in the regenerated hollow section vessel is built up to operating pressure, so that the switchover from regeneration to adsorption can take place at operating pressure level. Pressure build-up Standby phase (only with the dewpoint-sensing control option) When in standby phase, the fully regenerated vessel is ready for absorption operation.
