ZEKS Compressed Air Dryers: Efficient Solutions for Large Compressed Air Systems

Compressed air systems are essential in various manufacturing processes but can be compromised by moisture and contaminants. These impurities can damage tools, instruments, and pneumatic valves, leading to production downtime and product waste. ZEKS compressed air dryers in GA offer an effective solution by integrating multiple air treatment components to remove oil, moisture, and other contaminants from large-capacity compressed air systems.

Innovative Thermal Mass Refrigerated Dryer Design

ZEKS pioneered the thermal mass refrigerated dryer design and True-Cycling™ operation. This innovative design efficiently collects cold energy, allowing refrigeration compressors to shut off during low load periods while maintaining the dryer’s ability to remove contaminants and moisture. ZEKS compressed air dryers in GA can deliver energy savings of up to 80%.

Benefits of MultiPlex™ Dryers

Consolidated Air Treatment

MultiPlex™ dryers feature an assembly of several air treatment modules, each equipped with a stainless-steel heat exchanger, a high-efficiency vortex separator, a cycling refrigeration system, and a no-air-loss drain. This modular approach eliminates the need for multiple dryers and offers redundancy for critical dryer components.

Versatile and Reliable Design

ZEKS compressed air dryers in GA are designed to withstand the extreme conditions typical in manufacturing facilities. Key features include:

  • No Air-Loss Condensate Drains
  • Highly Efficient Thermal Mass Solution
  • Generously Sized Refrigeration Condensers (air or water)
  • High-Quality, Fully Hermetic Refrigerant Compressors
  • Coordinated Digital Dryer Control

Since their invention in 1959, ZEKS dryers have set the standard for reliability and performance, maintaining consistent dewpoints and reducing wear and tear on refrigeration systems.

Consistent Pressure Dew Point and Superior Heat Exchanger Design

Active Flow System

Each air treatment module includes a pump that circulates cold energy evenly, ensuring consistent pressure dewpoint even if a single module’s pump is disabled. This active flow, exclusive to ZEKS, optimizes efficiency across the entire airflow range of the dryer.

Industry-Leading Heat Exchangers

ZEKS heat exchangers are engineered specifically for compressed air drying, offering:

  • Very low pressure drop
  • ZEKS exclusive 10-year warranty
  • Greater fouling resistance
  • 100% stainless steel construction
  • 3-5 times more flow area
  • Higher energy efficiency

The CFX® stainless steel heat exchangers provide superior durability, especially in environments with corrosive impurities, outperforming exchangers made from copper or other metals.

Expandability and Service Convenience

Scalable Solutions

All MultiPlex™ modules connect via a single INLET and OUTLET air header, allowing flexible installation to suit site conditions. The common header centerline position across models facilitates easy capacity expansion by adding more modules as needed.

Easy Maintenance

The design of ZEKS compressed air dryers allows for easy access to serviceable parts, ensuring uninterrupted operation. Each module can be electrically disengaged for maintenance while the rest of the dryer remains operational. Critical components like refrigeration compressors, controls, condensate drains, and fan motors are strategically placed for easy maintenance and repairs, minimizing downtime.

ZEKS compressed air dryers in GA provide a robust and efficient solution for large compressed air systems, offering energy savings, reliable operation, and easy maintenance. Their innovative design and superior components make them an ideal choice for ensuring clean, dry air in manufacturing environments.

FAQs

Q1: What makes ZEKS compressed air dryers energy efficient?
A1: ZEKS dryers use True-Cycling™ operation to collect cold energy, allowing refrigeration compressors to turn off during low load periods, saving up to 80% in energy consumption.

Q2: Can MultiPlex™ dryers continue operating if a module is offline?
A2: Yes, MultiPlex™ dryers are designed with redundancy in critical components, allowing continuous operation even if one module is offline for maintenance.

Q3: How do ZEKS dryers ensure consistent pressure dew point?
A3: Each module has a pump that circulates cold energy evenly, maintaining consistent pressure dewpoints throughout the dryer.

Q4: What are the benefits of ZEKS stainless steel heat exchangers?
A4: ZEKS stainless steel heat exchangers offer low pressure drop, high energy efficiency, and greater resistance to fouling and corrosion.

Q5: How can I expand the capacity of my ZEKS compressed air dryer?
A5: The modular design allows for easy expansion by adding additional MultiPlex™ modules, connecting to the existing INLET and OUTLET air headers.
