When ordering, NEVER EVER undersize your drying needs.
Doing so will result in higher dew points, longer drying cycles
or moisture in your materials. Better to have more drying
capacity to ensure successful material drying.

How Our Desiccant Rotor Wheel Works:
®
The MAX-Dry Series of desiccant dryers incorporates honeycomb matrix desiccant rotor wheel technology. Moisture-laden
air enters through the process filter, then moves through the desiccant media. The desiccant absorbs the water vapor and
the dryed air is then delivered through the process outlet through the process heater then directly into the drying hopper.
Because the honeycomb desiccant media wheel continuously rotates into the reactivation air stream, the hot air entering
through the reactivation inlet drives off the moisture and exhausts it into the atmosphere. After reactivation, the hot, dry
desiccant rotates back into the process air stream where a small portion of the process air cools the desiccant so that it can
begin the absorption process all over again.
