How to Size an DHT

To Size the Dryer Capacity for Actual Conditions

Adjusted Capacity = scfm x C1 x C2 x C3 x C4

To calculate the capacity of a given dryer based on non-standard operating conditions, multiply the standard capacity by the appropriate correction factor(s).

EXAMPLE: Dryer Model: DHT-100
Standard Capacity: 100 scfm
Actual Operating Conditions: 95°F ambient temperature: C1 = 1.03
150°F inlet temperature: C2 = 1.06
160 psig system pressure: C3 = 0.96
50°F required dew point: C4 = 1.0
Adjusted Capacity = 100 scfm x 1.03 x 1.06 x 0.96 x 1.0 = 104.8 scfm

To Select the Dryer Model for Actual Conditions

Adjusted Capacity = scfm/C1/C2/C3/C4

To choose a dryer based on a given flow at non-standard operating conditions, divide the given flow by the appropriate correction factor(s).

EXAMPLE: Given Flow: 80 scfm
Actual Operating Conditions: 75°F ambient temperature: C1 = 1.1
150°F inlet temperature: C2 = 1.06
200 psig system pressure: C3 = 1.12
Required dew point : 50°F pdp: C4 = 1.0
Adjusted Capacity = 80 scfm / 1.1 / 1.06 / 1.12 / 1.0 = 61.3 scfm

Selected Dryer Model: DHT-75

Capacity Correction Factors

The Compressed Air and Gas Institute (CAGI) has developed standards to protect users of compressed air & gas equipment. The published standard capacities are based on 175 psig inlet pressure and 180°F inlet temperature. When these conditions vary, a given DHT dryer will be able to purify either more or less compressed air than its standard capacity. There are two ways in which this information can be used. The first is to start with a specific DHT dryer size and recalculate its capacity based on the known operating conditions using the correction factors given below. The second is to select the proper DHT dryer size based on applying the correction factors to the flow rate for a given set of operating conditions. Examples based on applying the correction factors are shown below.

*Applies to air-cooled units only

The Aircel DHT Series (20 - 125 scfm) high inlet temperature refrigerated air dryers are designed for air-cooled reciprocating type air compressors, this compressed air dryer combines an oversized refrigerated circuit, high-efficiency heat exchangers and separator into a single compact unit, with single point air in/out, drain and electrical connections.

These dryers can accept compressed air up to 205°F and provide clean dry air at the outlet. Our high inlet temperature refrigerated dryers have been designed specifically for use with smaller reciprocating air compressors that typically do not incorporate an aftercooler.

The Aircel DHT High Iinlet Temperature air dryer as been designed specifically for use with air compressors that do not already have an aftercooler.
