Our FX refrigerant dryers reliably, cost efficient and simply remove moisture from your compressed air system. As a result, you avoid condensation and the operational costs and downtime caused by the resultant corrosion.

Key features

• Solid performance

The FX industrial refrigerant air dryers deliver a strong performance with a steady pressure dew point with digital display. No freezing of condensed moisture and no risk of moisture entering your compressed air system

• Proven reliability

With quality components, a robust design and effective control systems, the FX air dryers offer proven reliability

• Easy installation

The plug-and-play concept with a single electrical connection and self-regulating controls facilitates installation

• Minimal maintenance

The ergonomic design of the FX air dryers ensures fast access to key components. Combined with long service intervals, this ensures your maintenance costs are minimal

The FD refrigerated air dryer guarantees a low life cycle cost, an accurate dew point and a fast return on investment.

Protect your production

Based on direct expansion technology, our high quality FD refrigerated air dryers remove moisture from compressed air with a stable dew point as low as +3°C/+37.4°F. Water- and air-cooled versions are available.

Key features

• Reduce lifecycle costs

FD compressed air dryers incorporate advanced energy saving features and low pressure drops to reduce total power consumption. The FD can achieve 6-4000 l/s

• Most silent in its class

FD refrigerated compressed air dryers come with a sound suppression canopy, drastically reducing noise levels

• Ease of maintenance

The FD refrigerated air dryer is delivered ready for use on a solid base frame with integrated forklift slots. Our refrigerant air dryers use no consumables and only require regular inspections and cleaning

The FD (VSD)+ refrigerant compressed air dryer sets new standards in reliability and energy efficiency.

Complete protection of your application

The FD (VSD) 1250+ -2400+ l/s refrigerant air dryer removes moisture from compressed air with a dew point as low as +3°C/+37°F. 
The innovative design of the FD+ compressed air dryer makes superior energy savings happen: 

• Electronic regulation valves 
• Advanced control with the Elektronikon Mk5 
• High-efficiency heat exchanger 
• R410: environmentally-friendly refrigerant gas 
• High-efficiency scroll refrigerant compressor 
• Zero loss condensate drains prevent waste of compressed air
• EC Cooling fans use less energy than other units 
• Water- and air-cooled versions available 
• More options available

Up to 65% energy saving with the VSD technology

Over 35% of the dryer’s lifecycle cost is taken up by the energy it consumes. To cut your energy costs,we offer FD (VSD)+ refrigerated compressed air dryers with Variable Speed Drive (VSD) technology. VSD leads to major energy savings, reducing the consumption of energy producing fuels and protecting the environment for future generations.

Key features

• proved energy efficiency

The FD (VSD)+ compressed air dryer saves energy from the first minute of operation due to a low pressure drop, high-efficiency components and an advanced control system. It reaches 1250-2400 l/s

• Smart AIR solutions

Designed to work together with our class-leading range of air compressors and controllers, the refrigerated air dryer FD+ saves energy and protects your production

• Pure compressed air

Refrigerated air dryer FD (VSD)+ exceeds the international standards for compressed air purity ISO 8573-1:2010. Class 4
