Description
Hankison FLEX 1.1 Refrigerated Compressed Air Dryer with Pre & Post Filtration – 75 SCFM
The Hankison FLEX 1.1 Refrigerated Compressed Air Dryer with Pre and Post Filtration delivers reliable moisture removal and advanced contaminant protection for compressed air systems up to 75 SCFM. Designed with Hankison’s innovative phase change material (PCM) thermal storage technology, the FLEX 1.1 automatically adjusts power consumption to match system demand, reducing operating costs while maintaining consistent dew point performance.
Unlike traditional non-cycling dryers that run continuously, the FLEX Series cycles intelligently based on load conditions. The result is improved energy efficiency, longer component life, and stable compressed air quality across varying production environments.
Now supplied standard with integrated pre- and post-filtration, the FLEX 1.1 protects the dryer and downstream equipment from oil aerosols, particulates, and liquid moisture contamination right out of the box, simplifying installation and improving overall system reliability.
This makes the FLEX 1.1 an ideal solution for machine shops, woodworking operations, manufacturing facilities, automotive service environments, and general industrial compressed air systems requiring dependable refrigerated drying performance with built-in filtration protection.
Key Features of the Hankison FLEX 1.1

Built-In Filtration Protection Standard
Every FLEX 1.1 dryer now includes pre- and post-filtration as standard equipment, providing:
- Removal of upstream solids and oil aerosols before entering the dryer
- High-efficiency downstream polishing filtration
- Improved protection for valves, tools, and pneumatic equipment
- Extended service life of compressed air components
- Cleaner air throughout the distribution system
This integrated filtration package eliminates the need to size and purchase separate inline filters during installation.
Energy-Saving Load Matching Performance
The FLEX Series uses PCM thermal storage to match electrical consumption directly to compressed air demand. Compared to conventional non-cycling dryers that operate nearly continuously, FLEX dryers reduce power consumption significantly during partial-load conditions, lowering total system operating costs over time.
Air Quality Performance
The Hankison FLEX 1.1 delivers compressed air consistent with ISO 8573-1 Class 4–5 pressure dew point performance, making it suitable for most industrial applications requiring dependable moisture control and equipment protection.
