Press Release Summary:
Suited for applications requiring -40°F dewpoint and flow rates up to 40 scfm, Balston 76 Series utilizes industrial membrane technology, which removes all humidity from compressed air without electrical components. Coalescing prefilters remove both liquid and solid contaminants down to 0.01 microns, providing instrument quality air downstream to critical applications in refineries, petrochemical plants, and anywhere hazardous environment exists.
Original Press Release:
Parker Hannifin Introduces New Explosion Proof Compressed Air Dryers That Deliver -40°F Dewpoint Compressed Air Using No Electricity and No Moving Parts.
Haverhill, MA. Parker Hannifin Corporation, the global leader in motion and control technologies, has introduced a new, full featured line of Balston 76 Series Explosion Proof Air Dryers for applications requiring -40°F dewpoint and flow rates up to 40 scfm.
Hazardous environments are dangerous for refrigerant and desiccant technologies without costly NEMA enclosures to make them "Explosion Proof". The Balston dryers utilize robust, industrial grade membrane technology which removes all humidity from compressed air without the need of any electrical components. This means that the Balston dryers can be placed in hazardous environments without the worry of electrical relays and contracts which could lead to a fire or explosion.
This unique membrane system uses only the compressed air supply to achieve a consistent, dry -40°F dewpoint. In addition, the high efficiency coalescing prefilters included with this drying system remove both liquid and solid contaminants down to 0.01 microns providing instrument quality air downstream to critical applications. The quality of air assures worry-free operation of instrumentation and control valves in refineries, petrochemical plants and anywhere a hazardous environment exists.
The Dryers are shipped complete with prefilters, membrane dehydration module and easy to install mounting brackets.
Parker Hannifin Corporation is the World Leader in Nitrogen and Air Dehydration membrane technology, with thousands of membrane units installed and 20+ Years of System Manufacturing experience.
With annual sales exceeding $12 billion, Parker Hannifin is the world's leading diversified manufacturer of motion and control technologies and systems, providing precision-engineered solutions for a wide variety of commercial, mobile, industrial and aerospace markets.
