How to Choose the Right Inline Desiccant Air Dryer

The Super-Dry ATD Series inline desiccant air dryers provide clean, dry compressed air directly at the point of use. They are ideal for protecting individual tools, instruments and equipment where moisture can cause corrosion, poor finishes or equipment failures.

What Should You Consider?

  • Air Flow (SCFM): Select a dryer rated for your equipment's maximum airflow.
  • Connection Size: Match the inlet and outlet ports to your air line.
  • Operating Pressure: Verify the dryer is suitable for your system pressure.
  • Application: Consider the level of dryness required for paint spraying, plasma cutting, instrumentation or pneumatic tools.
  • Maintenance: Replace the desiccant element when its service life has been reached or drying performance decreases.

  • Where Should an ATD Dryer Be Installed?

    Install the ATD Series as close as possible to the equipment being protected. For best performance, install it downstream of a water separator and compressed air filter.

  • Why Install an ATD Series Dryer?

    • Removes water vapor at the point of use
    • Improves paint and coating quality
    • Protects pneumatic tools and instruments
    • Helps prevent corrosion and moisture damage
    • Compact design for easy installation
    • Simple replaceable desiccant element

Understanding the ATD Series

The ATD Series uses a replaceable desiccant cartridge to adsorb water vapor from compressed air without consuming compressed air. It is designed for point-of-use applications where localized drying is more practical than installing a larger central dryer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the ATD Series do?

It removes water vapor from compressed air at the point of use to help protect equipment and improve air quality.

When should I use an ATD dryer?

Use it whenever a single tool or machine requires dry compressed air.

Can the ATD Series replace a central desiccant dryer?

It is intended for localized applications. Larger systems are typically better served by a central D Series dryer.

Do I need a filter before the dryer?

Yes. A water separator and compressed air filter will extend desiccant life and improve performance.

Can the ATD Series remove oil?

No. Oil aerosols should be removed with the appropriate SAF filter before the dryer.

How do I know when to replace the desiccant element?

Replace the element when drying performance decreases or according to the recommended maintenance schedule.

Where should the ATD Series be installed?

Install it as close as possible to the equipment being protected.

Can it be used for paint spraying?

Yes. It is commonly used for spray guns and other point-of-use applications requiring dry air.

Does the ATD Series consume compressed air?

No. It dries the air without purge air loss.

Why choose the Super-Dry ATD Series?

Compact design, simple maintenance, replaceable desiccant element and reliable point-of-use moisture removal.
