Its electronic controller, automatic condensate drain, and removable access panels combine practical operation with service access, making it an option for shops and production systems that need dependable air drying.
Features and Benefits
- Refrigerated moisture removal: Cools compressed air to condense water for removal through the drain.
- Electronic controller: Displays temperature and dew-point information and manages timed drain operation.
- Automatic condensate drain: Removes collected water; the quick-disconnect arrangement supports cleaning and service.
- Removable access panels: Provide access to internal components for inspection and maintenance.
- Integrated refrigeration system: Provides drying in a compact equipment package.
- 15 SCFM nominal capacity: A clearly defined rating for checking system demand under the specified conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What airflow is this dryer rated for?
The ADS-15 has a nominal capacity of 15 SCFM at 100°F inlet air, 100°F ambient, 100 PSIG operating pressure, and a 41°F pressure dew point. Capacity changes with actual operating conditions.
Do I need to oversize the dryer?
Size the dryer for actual airflow, operating pressure, inlet temperature, ambient temperature, and required dew point. Hotter inlet or ambient air and lower operating pressure can reduce capacity. Contact us to check the selection.
Can I connect it directly to hot compressor discharge air?
Check the air temperature at the dryer inlet first. The supplied ADS brochure lists a maximum inlet temperature of 131°F; hotter air needs cooling before this dryer. Ask us about an aftercooler or an SMH high-temperature dryer when appropriate.
Does this dryer provide a subfreezing dew point?
Its nominal rating is a 41°F pressure dew point. For subfreezing dew points, freezing downstream conditions, or more demanding moisture requirements, ask about a suitable desiccant dryer.
Is a condensate drain included?
The ADS brochure lists a quick-disconnect automatic drain valve, with timed drain control through the electronic controller. Maintain and clean the drain according to manufacturer instructions.
Does it replace compressed-air filters?
No. Refrigerated drying reduces moisture but does not replace filtration for particles, oil aerosols, or other contaminants. Select filters for your application and required air quality.
Does it qualify for free shipping?
Yes. This dryer qualifies for our free-shipping offer. Confirm any special delivery requirements before ordering.
