Description
Altec AIR HBS-0060-1 HBS Series Single Tower Heat Regenerative Desiccant Air Dryer
The Altec AIR HBS Series is a single tower heat regenerative desiccant air dryer built to deliver higher quality compressed air than a typical refrigerated dryer while helping reduce operating cost. Each HBS dryer ships as a true all-in-one package with factory-installed pre and after filters, rugged construction, and a simple design engineered for dependable performance in industrial compressed air systems.
This HBS-0060-1 configuration is rated for 60 SCFM @ 100 PSIG and is designed for applications that need consistent moisture control with outlet dew points from 0°F to −50°F (depending on conditions). A 3-way system bypass is available if you need to isolate the dryer for maintenance without interrupting air service.
