Desiccant Air Dryers
Desiccant air dryers use desiccant (water-absorbing) material to lower dew points and remove water from compressed air. The compressed air then dries through natural absorption. Removing water from compressed air reduces wear and ensures smooth operation in pneumatic equipment like paint sprayers and sandblasting tools. Commonly seen in dual-tower systems, the majority of desiccant air dryers provide pressure dew points down to -40 degrees Fahrenheit, with some capable of purifying down to -100 degrees Fahrenheit. Depending on the application, there are a variety of desiccant air dryers available. Heatless dryers, often featuring additional filters, provide customizable dew points. Specially designed desiccant air dryers use small portions of the dry air for tower regeneration. Single-tower desiccant air dryers work in-line for portable applications. Less expensive than dual-tower units, portable desiccant dryers may feature an integrated dust filter to clean the pressurized air.

Membrane Air Dryers
Membrane air dryers use a porous membrane to remove water vapor from compressed air. A filter cleans the compressed air and removes liquid particles. The air is then sent through the membrane for further filtering. Any water vapor that passes through the membrane is vented out of the air dryer. Available for point-of-use installation, membrane air dryers are relatively small, require no electricity, and do not vibrate or discharge heat. Because of these factors, they are a lightweight alternative to dryers that use desiccant (water-absorbing) material to remove water from compressed air. Because they have no moving parts, membrane air dryers provide silent, highly reliable, low-maintenance operation. Most membrane air dryers are capable of lowering the dew point at the inlet to -40 degrees Fahrenheit. The outlet dew point depends on the inlet dew point, membrane purge rate, and air pressure.

Pneumatic rotary actuators use pressurized gas to produce a rotary motion or torque. The motion produced may be continuous, as for an electric motor, or intermittent. The actuator is comprised of a piston, a cylinder, and valves or ports. A seal covers the piston and traps air in the upper part of the cylinder, creating pressure that forces the seal downward. The seal then moves the piston and valve stem below, creating energy to move the rotors. The size of the output pressure depends on the size of the piston. Larger pistons are good if air supply is low because they create more pressure than smaller pistons.

Refrigerated Air Dryers
Refrigerated air dryers lower the temperature of compressed air to remove water vapor. When the dryer lowers the temperature, it causes condensation that forms water droplets. These droplets are then separated and removed from the air. This process may be completed with one or two heat exchangers. When two exchangers are used, the first one pre-cools the air and the second refrigerates to cause condensation. In addition to removing water from compressed air, refrigerated dryers may also remove oil and other contaminants. Unlike membrane air dryers that use a porous membrane to remove water vapor, refrigerated dryers are ideal for large-scale operations where some water vapor is acceptable. The refrigerated water removal process handles larger quantities of air while potentially allowing small amounts of vapor.

Membrane Air Dryers
Membrane air dryers use a porous membrane to remove water vapor from compressed air. A filter cleans the compressed air and removes liquid particles. The air is then sent through the membrane for further filtering. Any water vapor that passes through the membrane is vented out of the air dryer. Available for point-of-use installation, membrane air dryers are relatively small, require no electricity, and do not vibrate or discharge heat. Because of these factors, they are a lightweight alternative to dryers that use desiccant (water-absorbing) material to remove water from compressed air. Because they have no moving parts, membrane air dryers provide silent, highly reliable, low-maintenance operation. Most membrane air dryers are capable of lowering the dew point at the inlet to -40 degrees Fahrenheit. The outlet dew point depends on the inlet dew point, membrane purge rate, and air pressure.

Round Body Repairable Air Cylinders
Round body repairable air cylinders use stored energy in compressed air to drive machinery. They contain a piston and attached rod housed inside a metal cylinder body. Repairable cylinders can be taken apart to repair or replace components and extend the cylinder’s life span. These low friction air cylinders also come in single or double acting forms. Single acting air cylinders have a compressed air port that drives the rod in one direction and a spring that brings the rod back. Double acting air cylinders have two compressed air ports that extend and retract the rod and piston assembly.

Solenoid-Operated Air Control Valves
Solenoid-operated air control valves use actuation to control air pressure in pneumatic systems. A solenoid actuates the valve by changing the valve’s normal state from open to closed or closed to open. When a solenoid receives an electric signal, it uses an electromagnetic lever to actuate the valve.

Standard Air Filters
Standard air filters remove dust and debris from compressed air before it enters the air line and reaches downstream pneumatic equipment. They are typically the first stage of filtration in a pneumatic system that has multiple filtration stages and prevent contaminant buildup that leads to equipment failure, malfunction, and wear.

Standard Air Lubricators
Standard air lubricators consistently and evenly deliver oil to components and parts in pneumatic systems. The compressed air passes over a needle valve and through a tube and bowl to pick up oil. Keeping pneumatic systems oiled is important to avoid equipment damage, friction, and wear.

Standard Air Regulators
Standard air regulators ensure accurate, consistent outlet pressure levels in pneumatic systems. Outlet pressure levels can be disturbed by temperature fluctuations and varying inlet pressure levels, also known as supply pressure levels. Standard air regulators maintain proper outlet pressure levels to avoid equipment damage and malfunction.

Stopper Air Cylinders
Stopper air cylinders stop applications during various stages. They are commonly used in conveyor systems where they stop objects to be machined and processed. Stopper air cylinders come in single and double acting forms and can withstand impact side loading. These durable air cylinders also come shaft, roller, and toggle-lever types. Roller stopper air cylinders retract without creating friction, while toggle-lever stopper air cylinders divert impact forces to a shock absorber and allow the air cylinder to handle high forces.

Suction Cups
Suction cups draw air to create a vacuum seal between the cup and an object. They have a wide, curved bell shape with edges that engage with a surface and suck the intervening air upwards. The object is released by a shutoff valve that stops the vacuum generation, breaking the seal.

Vacuum Ejector Pump Modules
Vacuum ejector/pump modules discharge compressed air at high speeds to generate vacuums. They can be employed as single in-line ejectors or joined together to create multi-stage systems with higher flow rates. Vacuum ejector/pump modules are used in lifting and conveyor applications and can be enhanced with pressure switches and supply and relief valves.

Vacuum Pumps
Vacuum pumps remove air molecules from a closed volume and exhaust them to create a pressure differential, called a vacuum. This vacuum converts mechanical energy from rotating shafts into pneumatic energy. Vacuum pumps are durable devices that can withstand strong pressure differentials. They come in lubricated and non-lubricated forms. Lubricated vacuum pumps have longer life spans and are able to create a higher vacuum because the lubricant acts as a sealant.

Hydraulic Gauges
Hydraulic gauges monitor pressure and temperature within a hydraulic system. They are manufactured with different accuracies, pressure fluid compositions and temperatures, pressure ranges, and mounting methods. Gauges are also manufactured for different environments. Some hydraulic gauges have stainless steel parts that prevent corrosion and allow outdoor use. Other gauges are vibration and shock resistant for use in high-vibration environments. A third type of hydraulic gauge combines the two with a thermoplastic case that resists vibrations and corrosion for use in especially harsh and demanding environments.
