The desiccant AEC dryers use is a synthetic crystallinemetal aluminosilicate blended with a clay binder and formed intobeads.Absorbed water is driven from saturated desiccant by heating it toa high temperature (reducing desiccant capacity to hold water) andforcing air through it. This moisture removal process is calledregeneration.1-8 The Process/Regeneration CycleAEC AD dryers have two desiccant beds. While one bed is on-linein the process air loop, the other is off-line, being regenerated.ONOFFPROCESSTEMPERATURE DEW POINTCONTROL POWERON OFFALARM ALARM SilencerALARM HORNBCAED
