A refrigerant air dryer performs the essential function of removing water vapor and the contaminants it carries from compressed air. Quincy’s refrigerated air dryers purify compressed air by chilling it to approximately 37 degrees Fahrenheit. This process causes moisture to condense. Condensed moisture carries airborne dirt and oil to the separator, where an automatic drain removes it from the air stream. We offer a […]
