Description
ZEKS HTB 15 HI-TEMP Refrigerated Air Dryer
The ZEKS HTB 15 is a HI-TEMP refrigerated compressed air dryer rated for applications with elevated inlet air temperatures. It is rated at 15 SCFM and is designed around listed operating conditions of 100 psig inlet pressure, 150°F inlet temperature, and 95°F ambient temperature.
For standard power and controls, the HTB 15 is supplied for 115 V / 60 Hz / 1 Phase service and includes a NEMA 12 electrical enclosure and an electronic drain as standard equipment. The maximum operating pressure is 200 psig, and the maximum inlet temperature is 200°F.
Key Features
- HI‑TEMP rated platform: built for elevated inlet air temperatures typical of tank‑mounted piston compressors.
- Moisture control: refrigerated drying to help reduce condensation in downstream piping and tools.
- Capacity: rated for 15 SCFM.
- Connections: 1/2".
- Pressure rating: up to 200 psig.

Benefits
- Protects downstream equipment: helps reduce moisture-related corrosion and contamination.
- Improves system reliability: supports consistent air quality for tools, controls, and processes.
- Handles hotter inlet air: supports applications where inlet temperatures are elevated.
- Right-sized capacity: 15 SCFM helps match system demand when applied at rating conditions.
Installation & Application Notes
- Ratings are based on 100 psig inlet pressure / 150°F inlet temperature / 95°F ambient.
- Verify system demand does not exceed 15 SCFM at the rating conditions.
- Keep operating pressure within the unit rating (up to 200 psig).
- Install the recommended prefilter ahead of the dryer to protect the refrigeration circuit and maintain air quality.
- Allow clearance for service access and condensate drain routing during installation.
ZEKS HTB 15 HI-TEMP Refrigerated Air Dryer is a strong fit when your system requirements match the listed capacity, pressure rating, and electrical configuration.
