Moisture removal / Desiccation system
Dynalene’s Fluidry® product line consists of moisture removal (or desiccation) systems which helps in maintaining low moisture content in hydrocarbons, silicone-based heat transfer fluids and transformer oil (insulation oil). These high-capacity molecular sieve-based systems are also designed for effective moisture removal from refrigerants and lubricants.
Maintaining low moisture content in low- and high-temperature heat transfer fluids is crucial to attaining or maintaining designed system efficiency. Moisture, which can enter into a fluid system due to improper seals, improper handling, system leaks, or malfunctioning driers, can cause system failures. Moisture in hydrocarbons operated below 0°C can form ice crystals that may clog valves and form a coating on heat exchanger surfaces, affecting the operational efficiency of the refrigeration system. In high-temperature applications, any moisture could turn to steam, which may increase internal pressure resulting in an eruption. Additionally, moisture in hydrocarbon- and silicone-based heat transfer fluids causes formation of acids, resulting in metal corrosion and chemical damage to gasket materials

HX Series
The HX series moisture removal system is a high performance device that is specifically designed for user-friendly experience in maintaining low moisture content in a variety of non-aqueous heat transfer fluids as well as refrigerants and lubricants.
Dynalene’s desiccation system has numerous advantages compared to the traditional desiccation system. They are:
Traditional Desiccation System
DYD Series Desiccation System
Fluid spillage
No spills
Creates a flammable atmosphere
Non flammable atmosphere
Odor when desiccant change out
No odor
Unfriendly and heavy desiccant baskets
User friendly and easy cartridge change out
Designed for a particular flow rate
Adjustable for different flow rates based on moisture content in the fluid loop
Features
- The system is equipped with connections for gauge and to provide a nitrogen blanket or vacuum, which can help avoid internal ice formation when operating at low temperatures.
- Drain port is provided in the system that can help drain fluid if any internal spills.
- The cartridges in the system contain quick disconnect with automatic shut off for easy handling and to avoid fluid spills.
