Get a Free QuoteThe KAESER range of compressed air dryers including Refrigerant and Desiccant dryers plus a series of Pre and After air filters, remove potentially harmful contaminants, such as water, oil, dirt, and odours.
Clean, dry, compressed air protects downstream pneumatics, tools, control gear, and ancillary pipework
from corrosion and contamination. The KAESER range of innovative Refrigerant and Desiccant compressed air dryers
can help achieve this reliably, cost-effectively and energy efficiently.
Drying
The atmospheric air drawn into a compressor is a mixture of gases that always contains water vapour. However, the amount of water vapour that air can carry varies is mostly dependent on temperature. As air temperature rises – which occurs during compression – the air's capability to hold moisture increases also. When the air is cooled its capacity to hold moisture reduces, which causes the water vapour to condense. This condensate is then removed in the centrifugal separator, or the air receiver, downstream from the compressor. Even then, the air can still be completely saturated with water vapour. This is why, as the air cools further, significant amounts of condensate can accumulate in the air distribution piping and at take-off points. System failure, production downtime and costly service and repair work are therefore unavoidable without additional air drying.

As with all KAESER products, SECOTEC dryers are designed and built for maximum reliability.
The broad range of available models makes it possible to install the most suitable dryer for virtually any application.
Exceptional efficiency
The high capacity thermal mass is cooled down to cut-out temperature by the refrigeration circuit and extracts the heat from the compressed air that flows through the heat exchanger. As soon as the temperature of the thermal mass rises to the cut-in temperature the refrigerant compressor starts and cools it down again. This feature considerably reduces power consumption compared with non-cycling controllers.Saves energy:
SECOTEC control The SECOTEC cycling control significantly reduces energy consumption compared with conventional systems with continuous control. The refrigeration circuit is activated only when cooling is actually required.Minimal pressure drop
SECOTEC series dryers ensure minimal pressure drop thereby saving additional energy, as the required maximum pressure is reduced.No pre-filter
SECOTEC energy-saving dryers do not require a pre-filter (with piping unaffected by corrosion). This translates into significantly lower investment and maintenance costs, as well as a lower pressure differential.
TE-TF Series
Flow Rate: 10.5 to 34 m³/min
The next generation: Even more efficient compressed air drying SECOTEC – that's the name of KAESER's renowned industrial quality refrigeration dryers that have long been valued for their stable pressure dew point performance, their exceptional dependability and their low total life-cycle costs. Together with the innovative SECOPACK LS latent heat storage heat exchanger system and the SIGMA CONTROL SMART controller, the next generation of these advanced dryers sets new standards when it comes to energy efficiency, compact design and user-friendliness.
Energy savings
SECOTEC TE-TF series refrigeration dryers require less than 87 W of electrical power per m³/min of compressed air (ISO 7183 A1). Thanks to the energy-saving control, reserve cooling performance can be temporarily accumulated in the thermal storage medium during partial load operation and can subsequently be used for drying purposes without the need for additional energy consumption. The rapid reaction SECOPACK LS heat exchanger system ensures stable pressure dew points at all times.
Optimised and compact
The thermal mass storage section of the innovative SECOPACK LS heat exchanger system is filled with a phase change material. Its significantly higher thermal storage density means that 98 % less storage material is required to achieve the same capacity as conventional storage media. This impressive storage capacity not only ensures excellent pressure dew point stability, but also drastically reduces space requirement. Optimised flow channels reduce pressure losses and further enhance the energy efficiency of the SECOTEC TE-TF series dryer.Intuitive operation
The electronic SIGMA CONTROL SMART controller with colour display and language-neutral menu design is simple and intuitive to operate. Message memory, component-specific operating hours counters and maintenance timers enable efficient monitoring and analysis of operating data. Floating contacts make networking with master controllers, such as the SIGMA AIR MANAGER, quick and easy.Long-term efficiency
The high quality cooling circuit in SECOTEC TE-TF series refrigeration dryers enables dependable performance in ambient temperatures up to +45 °C, and optionally as high as 50 °C. The generously sized condensate separator and the electronic ECO-DRAIN condensate drain ensure dependable condensate removal in all load phases. Durability is also increased through the use of stainless steel compressed air piping and because the condenser and SECOPACK LS are made from aluminium. The electrical equipment complies with standard EN 60204-1.
Desiccant Dryers Air Products
Low Pressure Dew Point with DC Desiccant Dryers
Series DC
Flow capacity 0.15 to 154.53 m³/min
Dependable Drying Power up to -70 °C
Meticulous design and quality ensure that KAESER DC Series desiccant dryers operate efficiently to provide dependable low-pressure dew point performance at continuous load, even under the toughest of conditions. The outstanding drying results are aided by generous quantities of KAESER’s high quality ‘SIGMA Dry’ desiccant, as only a fraction of the material’s initial load is used. Consequently, this means that minimal quantities of purge air are required for desiccant regeneration, even after longer than average periods of operation. In addition, long cycle periods reduce the number of flow optimised components required for reliable, integrated performance, such as KAESER’s pre- and after-filters. Made from activated aluminium oxide, the desiccant has an exceptionally high adsorption capacity and its regeneration capability provides sustained low-pressure dew point performance with minimal pressure loss. The desiccant is also waterproof and mechanically stable, which makes it particularly suitable for long periods of operation. Furthermore, specific pellet sizes are available to ensure optimal performance of flow diffusers and sieve plates.
