(1) Function of air dryer

Since moisture contained in the atmosphere is
compressed and warmed by the air compressor,
the amount of moisture is in proportion to that of
compressed air. This hot and humid air is cooled
down in fluid tanks or pipings to form condensa-
tion. This conden-sation washes away lubricants
from the moving parts of various devices or
equipment, resulting in unsatisfactory actions of
these devices or equipment. In addition, impuri-
ties contained in the condensation accelerates
rusting action to shorten the lives of related de-
vices or equipment. In cold weather, this conden-
sation can be frozen and immobilize various
devices and equipment.Therefore, it is essential
to remove moisture from compressed air in or-
der to extend the service lives of devices, to
enhance reliability, and to prevent possible dam-
age or breaks.
