The DryWell DW25 is a desiccant wheel pellet dryer that pairs perfectly with our MDPH2 and MDPE10 pellet extruders.
Traditional dehumidifying dryers use a large volume of molecular sieves in pellet form composed by at least 30% of clay, which tends to degrade very easily over time.
The desiccant wheel instead is completely different where the pure molecular sieve is applied to a synthetic substrate, rolled into a cylinder forming a honeycomb structure and covered by a steel protection.
Technical Features
The wheel pellet dryer offers a large number of important advantages:
- Dryer installed on the drying hopper to safe floor space
- Dryer is removable from hopper to allow easier maintenance
- Drying temperatures up to 180°C
- Constant and adjustable dew point of down to -50°C
- Energy saving up to 40% and more
- Energy monitoring system.
- No need of compressed air
- No need of cooling water
- Automatic or manual adjustable process air flow
- 7 ”vertical touchscreen display with viewing angle, large capacitive screen with immediate response, clear and bright; Intuitive user-oriented interface in alternative to the LCD display.
- Material selection table with pre-set or programmable drying parameters
- Visual and acoustic alarm
- Smart Mode: automatic adaption of the drying process to the production needs by monitoring the return air temperature - no waste of energy
- MPM (Material Protection Management): protects the material from over drying and degradation by monitoring the loading system or return air temperature
- SLS (Safety Loading System): prevents that undried material is reaching the production machine by monitoring the drying time.
- 5 year warranty on the desiccant wheel.
- Weekly timer - standard with touchscreen and optional with LCD display.
