Functionaility

How DRYPOINT RA III works

At the core of every DRYPOINT RA refrigeration dryer lies the cutting-edge heat exchanger. The highly efficient counter-flow process allows for optimal heat exchange throughout its entirety. The laminar airflow through the condenser and the calming zone in the demister ensure ideal moisture condensation with minimal losses in compressed air. The collected condensate is discharged reliably and without loss through the integrated BEKOMAT condensate drain.

The refrigeration is generated and transported by exceptionally efficient refrigeration compressors utilizing environmentally friendly refrigerants. This approach ensures not only optimal drying conditions but also underscores our commitment to sustainability and environmental protection.

Efficient control and maintenance

Practice-Oriented and Service-Friendly Design

The latest refrigeration dryers introduce a significantly more compact design without compromising performance, offering considerable space savings compared to the previous generation. Emphasizing practicality, easy accessibility for maintenance work was a key focus. The inclusion of generous flaps in the housing, a service-friendly arrangement of components, and advanced controls collectively contribute to significantly easing the workload for service technicians.

The TOUCH controls play a crucial role by providing precise information on the last operating values and conditions before a failure, along with a direct list of available spare parts. This functionality proves instrumental in simplifying and expediting maintenance work. The added connectivity feature ensures that important events and alarms can be conveniently transmitted to higher-level control systems.

Refrigerants at a glance

New refrigerant with with lower emissions

The DRYPONT RA III refrigeration dryers use eco-friendly R513a refrigerant, with low GWP and ASHRAE A1 classification for non-flammability, alongside zero ozone depletion potential (ODP). Achieving a 33% reduction in refrigerant quantity underscores our dedication to sustainability. The nearly azeotropic composition ensures stable performance throughout the evaporation and condensation process.

With this choice of refrigerant, our refrigeration dryers play a pivotal role in fostering sustainable and environmentally friendly operating processes. We take pride in contributing to a greener future through the responsible selection of refrigerants.
