Atlas Copco’s refrigerant dryers provide the clean, dry air you need to expand the life of your equipment and ensure the quality of your products. Our FD dryers are designed in-house and tested using the most stringent methods. They meet or exceed the international standards for compressed air purity and are tested according to ISO 7183:2007.
When purchasing a refrigerant dryer, the focus is usually on the initial cost. However, this only represents approximately 10% of the life cycle cost of the dryer. Energy, maintenance, and installation make up the bulk of your actual dryer costs. Direct and indirect (pressure drop) energy costs are the most important.
The introduction of Atlas Copco’s VSD (and later VSD+) compressor technology was an industry milestone. By automatically adjusting its motor speed as air demand fluctuates depending on production flow or time, a VSD compressor offers double-digit reductions in energy use and in lifecycle costs. With the FD VSD, Atlas Copco is extending this energy-saving principle to your quality air equipment.
