Dry, quality air is vital for long-term,
trouble free operation of your processes. Atlas Copco’s FX dryers
protect your products and systems against damage or corrosion.
They remove moisture from compressed air with a dew point as low as 3°C/37,4°F.
Easy to install, simple to operate and reliable, they provide the dry
air you need, allowing you to concentrate on your core business.
Customer benefits
• Reliability - FX dryers offer a steady pressure dew point
down to 3°F/37,4°F,
with no freezing of condensed moisture, and no chance of moisture entering
the compressed air system. They are constructed from generously sized,
quality components. A simple and proven design is backed up by an effective
control system (hot gas bypass) to ensure reliable performance.
• Reduced energy
costs – Designed to ensure a low pressure drop,
the FX dryer gives you dry air at low cost.
• Easy installation – Thanks
to a plug and play concept, installation of your FX dryer could not be easier.
You only need a single electrical
connection. All units are pre-commissioned and self-regulating.
• Low maintenance – Long
service intervals, few component replacements and an ergonomic design for fast
access to key components combine to reduce
the need for maintenance to an absolute minimum.

The compressed
air you use must be clean and dry. Moisture can cause corrosion in pipe work,
premature failure of pneumatic equipment, or product spoilage. Based on direct
expansion technology with cycling, non-cycling and Variable Speed variants,
Atlas Copco’s FD dryers remove moisture from compressed air with a dewpoint as low as +3°C/+37.4°F. They are highly energy-efficient, easy to install, and among the most environmentally
friendly and quietest in their class. Most importantly, they deliver dry
air to protect your air system and finished products.
Customer benefits
• High
reliability – Atlas Copco’s FD refrigerant dryers eliminate system failures, production downtime and costly
repairs by removing moisture from compressed air with a pressure dewpoint
as low as +3°C/+37.4°F. Separate components undergo severe endurance tests while the unique design
of the heat exchanger significantly improves dryer lifetime. Advanced
control functions ensure dry air at all conditions and prevent freezing
at low loads.
• Maximum
energy savings – Atlas Copco’s refrigerant dryers incorporate energy-saving features that cut your carbon
footprint. Incorporating unique heat exchanger technology and Saver Cycle
Control, the FD ensures a low pressure drop of typically below 0.2 bar/2.9
psi and minimal energy consumption. Integrated Variable Speed Drive (VSD)
technology variants offer even further energy savings by automatically
tuning the energy input to the precise demand. The FD offers an extremely
low total cost of ownership.
• Easy
installation – FD dryers have a small footprint thanks to
an innovative all-in-one design. Delivered ready for use, installation
is straightforward, minimizing costly production
downtime. On some models, in- and outlet connections are positioned on
top of the unit, enabling installation against a wall.
• Environmentally
friendly – Enclosed in a sound suppression canopy to reduce
noise levels, FD dryers stand out by being among the most environmentally
friendly and quietest in their
class. They fully comply with ISO 14001 standards and Montreal Protocol
regulations, and use CFC-free refrigerants to prevent any damage to the
earth’s ozone layer. FD dryers have an ozone depletion potential
of zero.
