Installation
8 Installation
8.1 Place of installation

Note!
Ambient conditions!
In the event that the dryer is not installed under suitable ambient conditions, the ability of the device to
condense refrigerant gas is impaired. This can result in a higher load of the refrigerating compressor, and in
a loss of efficiency and performance of the dryer.
This in turn leads to overheated condenser fan motors, to malfunction of electric components and to a
breakdown of the dryer. Failures of this type will affect warranty considerations.
Do not install the dryer in an environment in which chemicals with a corrosive effect, explosive gases, toxic
gases, evaporation heat, high ambient temperatures or extreme dust and dirt can be found.

Minimum installation requirements:


• Choose an area which is clean and dry, free from dust and protected against atmospheric disturbances.
• The load-bearing zone must be even, horizontal and able to bear the weight of the dryer.
• Minimum ambient temperature +1°C.
• Maximum ambient temperature +50°C.
• Ensure a proper cooling air replacement.
• Allow a sufficient clearance on each side of the dryer for proper ventilation and to facilitate maintenance operations.
The dryer does not require attachment to the floor surface.

Do not obstruct the ventilation grille (not even partially).


Prevent any recirculation of the outgoing cooling air.
Protect the dryer against draughts.

Note!
Dryers models RS 25 – 135 can be wall-mounted. See fixing dimensions on dimensional drawings in the
appendices section.
The hanging mounting inevitably causes the obstruction of the ventilation grid positioned on the panel
facing the wall fixing. This obstruction, in any case, does not prejudge the efficiency of the ventilation
inside the dryer which is guaranteed by other grids on the other panels.

Installation type A is recommended when the total consumption corresponds to the throughput rate of the compressor.
Installation type B is recommended when the air consumption constantly varies, with peak values which considerably
exceed the throughput rate of the compressor. The storage capacity of the tank must be dimensioned in such a way
that a possible short-term high air demand (peak air consumption) can be compensated.

Do not obstruct the ventilation grille (not even partially).


Prevent any recirculation of the outgoing cooling air.
Protect the dryer against draughts.
Note!
Contaminated intake air!
In the event that the intake air is strongly contaminated (ISO 8573.1 class 3.-3 or poorer quality), we
recommend the additional installation of a prefilter (e.g. CLEARPOINT HP50S040), to avoid clogging of
the heat exchanger.

Factor (F1) 0.57 0.70 0.80 0.88 0.94 1.00 1.05 1.10

Correction factor for ambient temperature changes (Air-Cooled):


Ambient temperature ºC 25 30 35 40 45 50
Factor (F2) 1.00 0.96 0.90 0.82 0.72 0.60

Correction factor for inlet air temperature changes:


Air temperature ºC 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65
Factor (F3) 1.20 1.12 1.00 0.83 0.69 0.59 0.50 0.44 0.39

Correction factor for DewPoint changes:


DewPoint ºC 3 5 7 10
Factor (F4) 1.00 1.09 1.19 1.37

Calculation of the actual air throughput:

Actual air throughput = air throughput acc. to planning x factor (F1) x factor (F2) x factor (F3) x factor (F4)

Example:
The DRYPOINT RS 180 HP50 has a planned nominal capacity of 180 m³/h. The highest achievable air
mass under the following operating conditions is:

 Air inlet pressure = 35 bar(g)  Factor (F1) = 0.94


 Ambient temperature = 35°C  Factor (F2) = 0.90
 Air inlet temperature = 45°C  Factor (F3) = 0.69
 Pressure dew point = 10°C  Factor (F4) = 1.37
Every function parameter corresponds to a numerical factor which, multiplied by the planned nominal capacity,
determines the following:

Actual air throughput = 180 x 0.94 x 0.90 x 0.69 x 1.37 = 144 m³/h

144 m³/h is the maximum flow rate of the dryer under the aforementioned operating conditions.

Selection of the best suitable model in accordance with the operating conditions:
Requ. air throughput
Air throughput acc. to planning =
Factor (F1) x Factor (F2) x Factor (F3) x Factor (F4)

Example:
The following operating parameters are known:
 Required air mass = 200 m3/h
 Factor (F1) = 0.94
 Air inlet pressure = 35 bar(g)
 Factor (F2) = 0.90
 Ambient temperature = 35°C  Factor (F3) = 0.69
 Air inlet temperature = 45°C  Factor (F4) = 1.37
 Pressure dew point = 10°C
To find out the correct dryer version, the required air mass must be divided by the correction factors of the
parameters indicated above:
200
Air throughput acc. to planning = = 250 m³/h
0.94 x 0.90 x 0.69 x 1.37

The suitable model for these requirements is DRYPOINT RS 320 HP50 (with a spec. nominal capacity of 315 m³/h).

8.4 Connection to the compressed-air system

Danger!
Compressed air!
All works must only be carried out by qualified skilled personnel.
Never work on compressed-air systems which are under pressure.
The operator or the user must ensure that the dryer is never operated with a pressure exceeding the
maximum pressure value indicated on the name plate.
Exceeding the maximum operating pressure can be dangerous for the operator but also for the device.

The air temperature and the air flow at the inlet of the dryer must lie within the limit values indicated on the name plate.
The connecting lines must be free from dust, iron rust, shards and other contaminations and correspond to the flow
rate of the dryer. Should air with a very high temperature be treated, the installation of an aftercooler may be
necessary. For the implementation of maintenance works, the installation of a bypass system is recommended.

Note!
Pulsation and vibrations!
Pulsations and vibrations must be eliminated from the compressed air and IN/OUT piping to avoid
possible fatigue failure.
Do not use the dryer to treat air containing corrosive substances for copper and its alloys..

8.7 Electrical connections

Danger!
Supply voltage!
The connection to the electric mains should only be carried out by qualified skilled personnel and must
correspond to the legal provisions in force in your region.

Prior to connecting the device, please check the name plate to avoid exceeding the indicated values. The voltage
tolerance is +/- 10%.
Dryers are supplied with a VDE 16A standard power cord and safety plug (two-pole and earth connection) or with a
junction box on the back plate.
Make sure that suitable fuses or circuit breakers in accordance with the indications on the name plate are available.
A residual-current device (RCD) with In =0.03A is suggested. The cross-section of the power supply cable must
correspond to the power consumption of the dryer. In this respect, the ambient temperature, the cable laying
conditions, the length of the cables and the requirements of the local electricity supplier need to be considered.

Danger!
Supply voltage and missing earth connection!
Important: ensure that the plant is connected to earth.
Do not use plug adapters at the power plug.
Possible replacement of the power plug must only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
8.8 Condensate drain

Danger!
Compressed air and condensate under pressure!
The condensate is discharged at system pressure.
The drain pipe needs to be secured.
Never direct the condensate drain pipe at persons.

The dryer is delivered with an already integrated electronically level-controlled BEKOMAT condensate drain. Connect
the condensate drain with a collection system or container by properly screwing it on.
Do not connect the drain with pressurised plants.

Do not discharge the condensate into the environment.


The condensate accumulating in the dryer contains oil particles which were released into the air by the
compressor.
Dispose of the condensate in accordance with the local provisions.

It is advisable to install a water-oil separator, to which the total amount of condensate from the
compressors, dryers, tanks, filters etc. is supplied.
We recommend ÖWAMAT oil-water separators for dispersed compressor condensate and BEKOSPLIT
emulsion-splitting plants for emulsified condensate.

11.2 Functional description


Operating principle – All dryer models described in this manual function according to the same principle. The hot and
moisture-loaded air is led into an air/air heat exchanger. Afterwards, the air flows through an evaporator, which is also
known as an air/refrigerant heat exchanger. The air temperature is reduced to approximately 2°C, so that water vapour
condenses to liquid. The continuously accumulating condensate is collected in the separator to be discharged via the
condensate drain. Subsequently, the cold and dry air is led through the air/air heat exchanger, so that it is reheated to
up to 8°C below the inlet temperature when leaving the dryer.

Refrigeration cycle – The refrigerant is conducted through the compressor and reaches a condenser under high
pressure. There, cooling-down takes place, making the refrigerant condense to a liquid state which is under high
pressure. The liquid is pressed through a capillary tube where the resulting pressure drop ensures that the refrigerant
evaporates at a defined temperature. The liquid refrigerant which is under low pressure is led into the heat exchanger,
where it expands. The cold resulting from the expansion serves to cool down the compressed air in the heat exchanger.
During this process, the refrigerant evaporates. The low-pressure gas is resupplied to the compressor, where it is
compressed again. It then re-enters the cycle. In phases of a reduced compressed-air load, the excess refrigerant is
resupplied automatically to the compressor via the hot gas bypass valve.

Technical description

11.5 Refrigerating compressor


The employed refrigerating compressors are constructed by leading manufacturers. The hermetically sealed
construction is absolutely gastight. The integrated safeguard protects the compressor against overheating and excess
current. The protection is automatically reset as soon as the nominal conditions are reached again.

11.6 Condenser (air-cooled)


The condenser is the component in which the gas coming from the compressor is cooled down, condensed and
liquefied. Under no circumstances must the temperature of the ambient air exceed the nominal values. It is also
important that the condenser unit is kept free from dust and other impurities.

11.7 Condenser (water-cooled)


The condenser is the component in which the gas coming from the compressor is cooled-down, condensed and
liquefied. The water inlet temperature must not exceed the nominal values. Likewise, a correct flow must be ensured.
The water entering the condenser must be free from impurities.

11.8 Cooling-water regulating valve


The cooling-water regulating valve serves to keep the condensation pressure or the condensation temperature
constant during water cooling. When the dryer is switched off, the valve automatically blocks the cooling-water flow.
The condenser water regulating valve is an operating control device.
The closure of the water circuit from the pressure condenser water regulating valve cannot be used as a
safety closure during service operations on the system.
ADJUSTMENT
The condenser water regulating valve is adjusted during the testing phase to a pre-set value that covers 90%
of the applications. However, sometimes the extreme operating conditions of the dryer may require a more
accurate calibration.
During start-up, a qualified technician should check the condensing pressure/temperature and if necessary
adjust the valve by using the screws on the valve itself.
To increase the condensing temperature, turn the adjusting screws counter-clockwise; to lower it turn the
screws clock-wise.
Water valve setting : R134.a pressure 10 barg (± 0.5 bar)
R407C pressure 16 barg (± 0.5 bar)

11.9 Filter dryer


Despite controlled vacuuming, traces of moisture can accumulate in the refrigeration cycle. The filter dryer serves to
absorb this moisture and to bond it.

11.10 Capillary tube


The capillary tube is a copper tube with a reduced diameter which is located between the condenser and the
evaporator, serving as a restrictor to reduce the pressure of the refrigerant. The pressure reduction serves to reach an
optimum temperature inside of the evaporator. The lower the outlet pressure at the capillary tube, the lower the
evaporation temperature.
The length and the inner diameter of the capillary tube are exactly dimensioned to ensure the performance of the
dryer. Settings or maintenance works are not required.

11.11 Air-to-air heat exchanger


The purpose of this exchanger is to drop the heat of the incoming compressed air onto the outgoing cold air. The
benefits of this solution are essentially two: the incoming air is already partially cooled so the refrigerating circuit can
be sized as to assure a limited thermal heat, with a 40÷50% energy saving. Secondly no cold air is allowed into the
compressed air line, thus preventing the system’s pipes sweating.

11.12 Air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger


Also called evaporator. The liquid formed in the condenser is evaporated in this part of the circuit. In the evaporation
phase the refrigerant tends to absorb the heat from the compressed air present in the other side of the exchanger.
Refrigerant and air are in counter flow, thus contributing to limit pressure drop and to provide efficient thermal
exchange.

30 DRYPOINT® RS 25-1010 HP50


Technical description

11.13 Condensate separator


The cold air exiting the evaporator goes through the hi-efficiency condensate separator featuring a stainless steel
mesh. As the condensate transported by the air gets in contact with the mesh net it is separated and expelled by
means of the draining device. The resulting cold and dry air is then conveyed into the air-to-air heat exchanger.
The mesh type mist separator offers the benefit to be highly efficient even with variable flow rates.

11.14 Hot-gas bypass valve


At partial load, the valve directly returns a part of the hot gas to the suction line of the refrigerating compressor. The
evaporation temperature and the evaporation pressure remain constant.
ADJUSTMENT
The hot gas by-pass valve is adjusted during the manufacturing testing phase.
As a rule no adjustment is required; anyway if it is necessary the operation A
must be carried out by an experienced refrigerating engineer.
WARNING
the use of ¼” Schrader service valves must be justified by a real malfunction 4 mm

Hot gas setting : R134.a pressure 2.0 barg (+0.1 / -0 bar)
R407C pressure 4.5 barg (+0.1 / -0 bar)

11.15 Refrigerant pressure switches LPS – HPS


To ensure the operational reliability and the protection of the dryer, a series of pressure switches are installed in the
gas cycle.
LPS : Low-pressure guard on the suction side of the compressor, which is triggered when the pressure drops below
the predetermined value. The values are reset automatically as soon as the nominal conditions are re-
established.
Calibrated pressure : R 134.a Stop 0.7 barg - Restart 1.7 barg
R 407 C Stop 1.7 barg - Restart 2.7 barg
HPS : The high-pressure control unit on the discharge side of the compressor is activated when the pressure
exceeds the predetermined value. It has a manual reset button on the control itself.
Calibrated pressure : R 134.a Stop 20 barg - Manual reset (P<14 bar)
R 407 C Stop 30 barg - Manual reset (P<23 bar)

11.16 Safety temperature switch TS


To ensure the operational safety and the soundness of the dryer, a safety
temperature switch (TS) is installed at the refrigeration cycle. In the event that the
2
pressure gas temperature is too high, the sensor of the temperature switch will
stop the refrigerating compressor to prevent the pressure gas temperature getting
too high.
The temperature switch is reset manually, but only when the normal operating
1

conditions are reached again. Unscrew the cover (see pos. 1 in the illustration)
and press the reset button (see position 2 in the illustration).
PQS0005

TS setting : temperature 113 °C (+0 / -6 °K)

11.17 Compressor crankcase heater


At low temperatures, the oil can more easily intermix with the refrigerant gas. When the compressor starts, oil can be
drawn into the refrigeration cycle, leading to "hydraulic shocks". To prevent this, a resistance heater is installed in the
suction side of the compressor. When the system is connected with the electric mains and the compressor is idle, the
heater will keep the oil at the correct temperature.
This heater is controlled via a temperature switch which prevents the overheating of the oil.
Note: The heater must be connected to the mains at least a few hours prior to the start-up of the refrigerating
compressor.

Technical description
11.20 Electronically level-controlled BEKOMAT condensate drain
The electronically level-controlled BEKOMAT condensate drain boasts a special condensate management which
ensures that condensate is discharged safely and without an unnecessary loss of compressed air. This drain has a
condensate collection container in which a capacitive sensor continuously monitors the liquid level. As soon as the
switching level is reached, the capacitive sensor transmits a signal to the electronic control and a membrane solenoid
valve opens to discharge the condensate. The BEKOMAT closes before compressed air emerges.

Note!

These BEKOMAT condensate drains were designed in particular for the operation in a DRYPOINT RS
HP50 refrigeration dryer. The installation in other compressed-air processing systems or the replacement
with another drain brand can lead to malfunction. The maximum operating pressure (see name plate)
must not be exceeded!

Ensure that the upstream valve is open when the dryer starts operation.

To obtain detailed information regarding drain functions, troubleshooting, maintenance and


spare parts, please read the installation and operating instructions of the BEKOMAT condensate
drain.
