The DD-P Series is a high pressure desiccant air dryer designed to remove moisture from compressed air, delivering dry, clean, oil-free air for PET bottle blowing and other high-pressure industrial processes. It passes moisture-laden compressed air through a desiccant bed that adsorbs water vapour, providing consistently low-moisture output. The series covers 54 to 170 m³/hr (30 to 100 cfm) at working pressures of 25 to 45 bar.
The dryer uses adsorption drying, in which water vapour is captured by a desiccant bed rather than condensed out. It is supplied with specially graded desiccant — Delsorb™ 10 and Delsorb™ 21 — selected for consistent performance and long service life. Pressure dew points from (−) 20 °C down to (−) 50 °C are achievable, depending on the application.
The series is available in four standard models covering 54 to 170 m³/hr (30 to 100 cfm), with higher capacities available on request. Electronic controls and solid-state timers handle automatic operation, and a muffler on the purge air outlet reduces noise levels. Optional features include a humidity indicator, filters and a total dryer bypass line with valves, explosion-proof controls for offshore applications, and construction to various codes.
Delair’s DD-P Series is built specifically for the 25 to 45 bar pressure range, with four standard models and higher capacities available on request. Units can be configured with filtration, bypass arrangements, humidity indication or explosion-proof controls to suit the installation. Delair also supports installed equipment through DelCare, its trained Airgineers® service network, for routine maintenance and technical support.
PET bottle blowing uses high-pressure compressed air, typically 25 to 45 bar, to form the bottle — and any moisture or oil carryover can cause internal bubbles, pockmarks, or weak bottles. The DD-P Series delivers dry, clean, oil-free compressed air at these elevated pressures, helping produce crystal-clear, high-strength PET bottles and keeping the PET resin contamination-free.
