Parker Hannifin's Moduflex Dry Air System
Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, has launched the Moduflex Dry Air System, a complete air preparation system combining air filtration and drying that cuts the cost of dry air. The system is designed to increase the efficiency and reliability of compressed air systems, with integral pre-filtration to 0.1 micron and further filtration after the air is dried, preventing degraded desiccant from passing downstream.
The Moduflex system makes operation and maintenance simple and cost effective, combining long lasting quick change filters and dryer combi-cartridges. The quiet-running unit can be serviced in situ in under 15 minutes due to multiple in-line inlet and outlet connection ports, keeping maintenance costs down. Furthermore, the system offers service intervals of up to 12,000 hours and a built-in electronic service indicator notifies maintenance personnel when attention is needed.
The innovative unit is able to clean and dry compressed air down to -40ºC pressure dewpoint as standard, enabling ISO 8573.1 Class 2 to be met simply and cost effectively, while a pressure dewpoint of -70ºC is also achievable to meet ISO 8573.1 Class 1 for critical applications.
The Moduflex Dry Air system is ideal for a wide range of industrial applications, such as CNC machine tools, co-ordinate measuring devices, laboratory instrumentation, and packaging, process and automation systems.
The system can be specified with a number of additional features, such as remote indication of servicing requirements, a wall mounting kit for securing the dryer vertically or at a 45º angle to a wall or canopy, or the facility to pipe away the regeneration exhaust air for silent operation. With IP66/NEMA 4 protection as standard, the compact and lightweight solution can be safely floor-, bench- or wall-mounted almost anywhere for maximum flexibility.
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. The company employs approximately 62,000 people in 48 countries around the world.
