East Windsor, CT, February 29, 2024 – Dri-Air Industries, Inc is pleased to introduce a new product series in their extensive dryer line for the plastics industry. Known throughout the industry for their desiccant dryers, Dri-Air is now manufacturing a micro line of compressed air dryers with matching hoppers.
The MicroDryer Series (MD) is a line of sleek, compressed air dryers designed for very low throughputs. The series of dryers start with the MD-1 equipped with drying hoppers with a capacity of 1-3 lbs and range up to the MD-3 with the largest capacity of 15 lbs. Low dewpoints, -40F and below, are assured as the dryer is equipped with a membrane and compressed air prefilter.
The MD-1 is the first of the new Dri-Air dryers to be unveiled at NPE 2024. Built as a matched dryer/hopper combination, the fully stainless-steel construction and glass hopper is ideal for medical molding with low throughputs and/or high-cost resins. An optional adjustable fill sensor can be used with the standard full length sight glass to vary the capacity of the hopper from 1 lb to 3 lbs.
The dryer is available to operate on 120 volt or 230 volt single phase power and a 100 psi clean compressed air supply. For ease of use, the 4” color touch screen will easily guide the operator for temperature and alarm settings and a 7 day timer for automatic start / stops.
The MD-1 is also available with options to make the system even more flexible and user friendly:
- -40 F dewpoint meter
- Adjustable fill sensor
- Integrated compressed air loader for loading drying hopper
- Feed throat adapter
- Remote Dryer capabilities
