Compressed Air Dryers from Atlas Copco: Reliable, Efficient, and Tailored to Your Needs

When it comes to removing moisture from compressed air, choosing the right dryer is essential to protect your equipment, ensure product quality, and minimise downtime. At Air Kraft, we supply the full range of Atlas Copco compressed air dryers, including refrigerant dryers, desiccant dryers, and membrane dryers, each designed to meet specific industry requirements.

Types of Compressed Air Dryers Supplied by Atlas Copco

1. FX and FD Refrigerant Air Dryers

Atlas Copco’s FX and FD series offer energy-efficient, low-maintenance solutions for general industrial use. These dryers use a refrigeration cycle to cool compressed air and condense out moisture, delivering reliable performance with minimal pressure drop.

FX series

  • Compact, cost-effective, and ideal for standard industrial applications

FD series

  • Heavy-duty, robust models designed for high-capacity, continuous operations

FD-VSD

  • Variable Speed Drive air dryers for ultimate energy efficiency

 

Applications:
  • General manufacturing

  • Automotive workshops

  • Packaging plants

Advantages:
  • Simple plug-and-play installation

  • Low power consumption

  • Stable dew points (typically +3°C)

2. CD+ and BD+ Desiccant Adsorption Dryers

For critical applications where extremely dry air is required, CD and BD dryers are the ideal choice. These dryers use a desiccant material to adsorb moisture from the compressed air stream, achieving dew points as low as -40°C or -70°C.

CD+ series

  • Heatless twin-tower dryers with minimal moving parts and high reliability

 

BD+ series

  • Blower purge dryers offering high efficiency and low lifecycle costs
Applications:
  • Pharmaceutical production

  • Food and beverage packaging

  • Electronics manufacturing

  • Paint spraying and powder coating

Advantages:
  • Suitable for ISO 8573-1 Class 1 and 2 air quality (water content)

  • Flexible control systems for energy savings

  • Reliable performance in cold environments

 

3. SD+ Membrane Dryers

The SD+ membrane dryer range from Atlas Copco is designed for point-of-use applications, where space is limited and power may be unavailable. These dryers use advanced membrane technology to remove water vapour without any moving parts or external power source.

Applications:
  • Laboratory air systems

  • Instrument air for sensitive equipment

  • Offshore or remote sites

Advantages:
  • No electricity required

  • Ultra-compact and lightweight

  • Maintenance-free operation
