Portable Air Dryers for Compressors
A Portable Dryer for All Your Needs
Types of Portable Dryers Offered by Van Air
Van Air Systems, offers four main portable dryers that are used for drying compressed air and natural gas. Each one has a different capacity and designed function, but all come equipped with skids making them easy to be maneuvered using a forklift. Here is a brief description of each portable dryer:
- Blast Pak Pro Compressed Air Drying System - A single tower deliquescent compressed air drying package that is perfect for the mobile blasting and painting contractor who needs to keep moisture out of blast pots and nozzles. Also, no power needed!
- Dry Pak Pro Portable Air Drying System - A low cost portable air drying system is perfect for small jobs where portability and dry air matter. Designed for flows up to 185 SCFM, the Dry Pak has no power requirements, meaning it can be used virtually anywhere.
- Prep 40 Compressed Air Drying System - Well suited for plant back-ups, pipeline dehydration and any compressed air application requiring a -40 pressure dew point. Includes an aftercooler, moisture separator, pre- and after-filters, and an HL series heatless dryer.
- Cool Pak Aftercooler / Filter Separator - an aftercooler/filter separator combo for portable compressors. It reduces the harmful effects of liquid contaminants. The Cool Pak is designed for use with portable 185 CFM compressors whenever a Dry Pak PRO air dryer is not an economical solution.
Blast Pak PRO
The Blast Pak PRO compressed air system, is a single tower deliquescent drying package with conveniently integrated peripherals that are pre-assembled and welded to a forklift skid, allowing maximum portability for mobile drying applications. These compressed air systems can be easily lifted on the back of a truck or trailer and moved about within a plant or worksite. The Blast Pak PRO is an ideal solution for mobile blasting contractors. Wet compressed air clogs blasting pots and compromise the quality of the blasted substrate by putting moisture back on the surface. This moisture then flashes to rust, necessitating costly re-work….
Dry Pak Pro Duo
The Dry Pak Duo was design that came from the common question we hear, “ Can I get the air even dryer?”. The answer is Yes! The Dry Pak Duo has the same components as the Blast Pak PRO, but with another drying level. This unit was designed for applications that require lower dew points than what our Dry-O-Lite desiccant can provide. Using two deliquescent dryer vessels in a series enables you to achieve a lower dew point. By using Dry-O-Lite desiccant in the first dryer vessel it will knock out a majority of the moisture. This pre-dryer will also…
Dry Pak PRO
The Dry Pak PRO is a portable compressed air system designed for flows up to 185 SCFM. With no power requirements this system can be used virtually anywhere. This portable skid mounted system consists of a D12 Deliquescent Dryer, F200-265 Filter, aftercooler with air motor, rock guard, and a regulator lubricator. The DryPak 150 is a low cost portable air drying system is perfect for small jobs where portability and dry air matter.
Cool Pak Pro
The Cool Pak PRO is an aftercooler system with a filter/separator which is similar to our Cool Pak but with one distinct difference. We have placed it on a cart for mobility purposes. After further testing of our original Cool Pak we realized having the filter/separator at the high point in the aftercooler system can sometimes cause issues. The liquid created through cooling the compressed air always falls down to the bottom of the aftercooler since water is heavier than air. Water accumulating and flooding the bottom of the cooler drastically decreases performance because there is less capacity for the…
Cool Pak
The Cool Pak is an aftercooler/filter combo for portable air compressors that delivers cool filtered compressed air for portable jobs. Each Cool Pak consists of an air-cooled after-cooler with a 12VDC motor, 25 micron air filter/bulk moisture separator with a manual drain. All of this is conveniently packaged on a steel constructed stand, with a rock guard, and protective cord wrap for ease of portability. The Cool Pak reduces the harmful effects of liquid contaminants. The Cool Pak is designed for use with portable 250 CFM compressors whenever a Dry Pak PRO air dryer is not an economic solution.
Prep 40
When mobility and portability are essential, turn to the Van Air Systems Prep 40. The Prep 40 series delivers clean, dry and cool compressed air in one integrated forklift skid package. The package includes an aftercooler, moisture separator, pre- and after-filters, and an HL series heatless dryer. Prep 40 compressed air dryers have been designed for the rugged demands of the equipment rental industry. Heavy duty structural steel frame work protects key components. The skid is “sled style” allowing it to be easily dragged and pushed about a job site. These dryer skids are as close to plug-n-play as equipment…
