Compressed air dryers

Reliable and efficient moisture protection with KAESER compressed air dryers

Compressed air contains water vapor and as it travels through compressed air piping, it cools and the vapor condenses into liquid condensate. This condensate increases maintenance requirements and affects product quality. KAESER offers a wide range of efficient compressed air dryers for your compressed air system.

Choose the right compressed air dryer for your application from the list of options below, which includes:

  • Refrigerated air dryers
    Refrigerated dryers serve most compressed air applications. We have a wide range of refrigerated air dryers from 10 to 3355 scfm for a variety of applications. All KAESER dryers use refrigerants friendly to the environment.
  • Desiccant air dryers
    Desiccant dryers provide extremely dry air for processes that are very sensitive to moisture or applications where the air system is exposed to very low ambient temperatures. Dew points may be as low as -100°F. The desiccant material adsorbs moisture in the compressed air until it reaches its maximum capacity, at which point it must be regenerated. The method of regeneration is what differentiates the types of desiccant dryers (KAD, KED, DC-HF, and KBD).
  • Membrane dryers
    Our membrane dryers provide a simple and reliable way to dry compressed air to dew points as low as -40°F and reduce maintenance costs.
