Definitions

  • the air thus cooled to its dew point is passed to a water separator after it has passed through the refrigerant / air heat exchanger, in which the moisture is completely removed from it, and is then passed through the air / air heat exchanger again by simultaneously cooling the air warm compressed air coming from the compressed air system is heated to about room temperature.
  • the arrangement is such that the passages 72 and 76 are arranged in a central part of the heat exchanger block 58, to each of which a passage 65 (FIG. 15) is connected upwards and downwards.
