Kaeser - TCH26 Dryer

• Drying compressed air for pneumatic tools and machinery in food processing environments.
• Protecting sensitive food processing equipment from moisture damage and corrosion.
• Ensuring product quality by preventing condensation in air lines that contact food or packaging.
• Maintaining consistent air quality for instrumentation and control systems.

Typical capacity

Refrigerated dryers for this class of equipment commonly handle air flows ranging from 1.5 to 2.5 m³/min (50-90 CFM).

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on a standard single-phase industrial supply, such as 230V, 50Hz.

Refrigerant type

This unit uses R134a, a common refrigerant for industrial refrigerated air dryers.

Maximum operating pressure

Refrigerated dryers are commonly rated for pressures up to 16 bar (232 psi), suitable for most industrial compressed air systems.

Pressure dew point

Typically, refrigerated dryers achieve a pressure dew point of +3°C to +7°C, suitable for general industrial applications.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, dimensions are often compact, typically around 400-600mm (W) x 400-600mm (D) x 600-800mm (H).

• What is a refrigerated air dryer used for?

  A refrigerated air dryer removes moisture from compressed air by cooling it, causing water vapour to condense. This prevents water from damaging pneumatic equipment and contaminating processes.

• Why is dry air important in food processing?

• What maintenance does a refrigerated dryer require?

• Can this dryer be used with any compressor?

• What is the significance of the 16 bar rating?

Heating and drying equipment for food processing is valued for consistent performance and long operational life when properly maintained. Buyers typically prioritise units with robust construction, reliable temperature controls, and documented maintenance history. Common strengths include energy efficiency and compatibility with existing production lines. When purchasing used models, inspectors should verify heating elements function reliably, check for corrosion or wear affecting interior chambers, and confirm all temperature gauges read accurately. Equipment from reputable manufacturers generally commands confidence in the second-hand market.
