Description
ZEKS 1SS HeatSink™ Cycling Stainless Steel High Pressure Refrigerated Air Dryer – 3000 PSIG
The ZEKS 1SS is a HeatSink™ cycling, stainless steel refrigerated compressed air dryer engineered for high-pressure systems. It reduces moisture in compressed air to help minimize condensation and support reliable operation in downstream equipment.
This model is rated for a 38°F pressure dew point under stated conditions and is configured for an operating pressure rating of 3000 PSIG. Flow capacity for this model is listed at 30 SCFM in the ZEKS price book.
Key Features
- HeatSink™ cycling operation: cycles refrigeration to reduce energy use during lighter demand.
- CFX® exchanger technology: designed for efficient heat transfer and low pressure drop.
- Dew point performance: rated for 38°F pressure dew point (based on 1,000 PSIG inlet pressure, 100°F ambient temperature, and 5 psi maximum pressure drop).
- Capacity: rated for 30 SCFM.
