When it comes to operating compressed air-based machines, it is s must to keep the air free from moisture as the undesirable amount of moisture also contains other pollutants and contaminants. These contaminants and water-based particles move too fast and take no time to dampen the internal components like valves, flow meters and fittings of the machines by eroding them. With time, the internal elements, overall performance and durability of the compressed air-driven engines and machines face major troubles.

What are Moisture Separators and How do They Work?These machines are widely used in several industrial sectors to remove water vapor or moisture of any type from the Air or steam. This elimination of moisture, water vapor and other soluble contaminants considerably increases the overall thermal efficiency of a steam-based engine and its performance. Moisture separators work on the basis of centrifugal force that pushes away the condensations from the steam. As a result, these machines produce dry steam that are mainly used by industrial devices like autoclaves and other critical equipment like nuclear reactors, large industrial boilers, classic steam locomotive engines, modern turbine system and so on.

Following are the industrial sectors that require moisture separators:

• Food and Beverage industry
• Aerospace industry
• Metallurgy and mining industry
• Aeronautical industry
• Petrochemical industry
• Water treatment industry
• Chemical industry
• Automobile industry
• Steel mills
• Geothermal industry

Water cooled after Cooler is able to cool high temperature compressed air from compressors down to 40°C or less while efficiently removing moisture from the air. As this is water cooled, it can be used where there is high temperature, high moisture and heavy foreign particles.  Water-cooled aftercoolers are similar to air-cooled aftercoolers but are often used in stationary compressor installations, where cooling water is available.

There are several different types of water-cooled aftercoolers. An aftercooler in the Shell and Tube design is the most popular. This aftercooler is made up of a shell with a collection of tubes inside. Water flows through the shell in the opposite direction from compressed air as it passes through the tubes.

Other Details:

• Water cooled type
• Cools down to 40 °C or less, and efficiently removes moisture from the air
• Stable operation even in high temperature, high moisture, and heavy foreign particle environment
