▪ Oil Vapour ▪ Oil Aerosols
Water
▪ Atmospheric air contains water vapour
(water in a gaseous form)
▪ Air’s ability to hold water vapour is
dependent upon 2 main parameters
…………..which are?
▪ As xxx increases, a smaller amount of
water vapour can be held by the air
▪ As xxx increases, more water vapour can
be held by the air
▪ During compression, the air temperature
increases allowing the air to easily retain the
moisture
▪ After compression, air is typically cooled to a
more usable temperature
▪ Cooling reduces the air’s ability to retain water
vapour, resulting in a proportion of the water
vapour being condensed into liquid water
▪ How much water present in 1 meter cubed?
 Water

▪ As the compressed air enters the storage

and distribution system, it is 100% saturated
with water vapour

▪ The air receiver and system piping will drop

the temperature of the compressed air
(especially if the receiver or piping is
external)

▪ The temperature drop causes the 100%

saturated air to condense more water
vapour into liquid water
Air Quality Standards
 Solutions

▪ There are 4 sources of compressed air contamination

▪ There are 10 contaminants that need reduction or removal for efficient operation of
a compressed air system
▪ It takes a combination of 6 different technologies to reduce or remove the 10
contaminants

P.S.A V.R
P.S.A

▪ Water will always migrate to the driest

medium
▪ Therefore in an adsorption dryer, water
transfers from the wet air to the dry
desiccant
▪ The desiccant material has a large
internal surface area to the hold water
vapour
▪ However, the desiccant material has a
fixed adsorption capacity
▪ Once the adsorption capacity is
reached, it must be replaced or
regenerated
Adsorption Drying Technology

▪ Uniform distribution
▪ Maximum Packing density
▪ Air flows evenly over each bead
▪ Minimum pressure drop
▪ Maximum effectiveness
▪ No attrition or dusting

▪ Atmospheric Dewpoint
▪ Pressure Dewpoint

 Measuring Dewpoint -40 Dryers
▪ ALL CDAS / OFAS -40 dryers use a temperature / humidity sensor
▪ Temperature is exactly that. How warm or cold the air is.
▪ Relative Humidity is the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the amount of
moisture in the air to the maximum amount that can be present at that temperature.
▪ Dewpoint is the temperature at which a given sample of air will have a RH of 100%.
Also referred to as saturation temperature but Dewpoint is the temperature at which
water vapour in the air condenses into liquid water.

▪ Rules – If the water vapour content stays the same and

the temperature drops, the relative humidity
increases. If the water vapour content stays the same
and the temperature rises, the relative humidity
decreases. This is because colder air doesn't require as
much moisture to become saturated as warmer air.
▪ RH can never exceed 100% therefore Dewpoint can
never be higher than the actual temperature.
▪ Example -
▪ Temperature 35°c, RH100% = Dewpoint of 35°c
