PCM PLUS SERIES
Phase change type air dryer, it only runs when it's needed, so the cost of electricity is 1/10
Energy saving air dryer
Another innovation in PCM Series!
PCM PLUS provides high energy efficiency while handling hot inlet air. This upgraded, high temperature all-in-one model includes both pre and after filters making it much easier to install, maintain and repair.

- zero air loss when draining condensate
- Automatically switch to timer mode if operational error occurs
Phase change in PCM dryer
- When a refrigeration compressor and condenser fan are running, the cold refrigerant in the chiller (evaporator) cools the liquid Phase Change Material(PCM) and it gradually freezes.
- When a PCM is sufficiently cooled and frozen, the refrigeration compressor and condenser fan stop.
- The compressed air is continuously cooled by the PCM while the refrigeration compressor is inactive. No power is consumed during this period.
- The PCM gradually melts as it adsorbs heat from the compressed air, and when fully melted, the refrigeration compressor and condenser fan resume to cool down the PCM.
- Compressed air saturated with water vapour enters the stainless steel brazed air-to-air heat exchanger, is pre-cooled by the outgoing chilled air, and then directed to the stainless steel brazed plate PCM-to-air heat exchanger (evaporator) where it is further cooled by the Phase Change Material (PCM).
- As the air is cooled, water vapour condenses into liquid droplets which are then removed by high efficiency external moisture separator with No Loss Drain.
- Then aerosol and oil mist condensed from oil vapour are removed by high efficiency external oil filter with a No Loss Drain.
- Chilled air returns through air-to-air heat exchanger (re-heater) where it is reaheated before exiting the dryer. This is to prevent external sweating of piping when clean and dry compressed air travels to point of use.
