1 Inlet flows are determined in accordance with CAGI (Compressed Air and Gas Institute) Standard ADF-200, Dual Stage Regenerative Desiccant Compressed Air Dryers – Methods for Testing and Rating. Dryer rating conditions are: inlet pressure – 100 psig (7 kg/cm2); inlet temperature – saturated at 100°F (38°C).
2 Average purge flow is the total quantity of air used to purge and repressurise off-stream towers, averaged over the cycle time. Maximum purge flow is the flow through the off-stream tower during the part of the cycle in which the purge/repressurisation valve is open.
CORRECTION FACTORS FOR INLET AND PURGE FLOW

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| kg/cm2 | 3.5 | 4,9 | 6.3 | 7 | 7.7 | 8.4 | 9.1 | 10.5 | |
| MULTIPLIER A | 0.31 | 0.54 | 0.83 | 1,00 | 1.09 | 1.17 | 1.26 | 1.44 | |

CAPACITY CORRECTION FACTORS
- To determine the maximum inlet flow at inlet pressures other than 100 psig (7 kg/cm2), multiply the inlet flow from Table 1 by multiplier A from Table 2 corresponding to the system pressure at the dryer inlet.
- To determine the purge flow at an inlet pressure other than 7 kg/cm (2), multiply the purge flow at 7 kg/cm (2) from Table 1 by multiplier B from Table 2 corresponding to the system pressure at the dryer inlet.
- To determine the outlet capacity, subtract the purge flow from the inlet flow.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Hankison HSHD Series suitable for?
For use directly at the point of use, in laboratories and other confined areas. Typical locations are laboratories, hospitals, pharmaceutical production and other high-tech environments with moisture-sensitive applications.
How does the HSHD dryer work?
It routes the air flow automatically and cyclically through two desiccant beds. This means dry compressed air is continuously available.
What air flows does the series cover?
An air flow of 8 to 68 m³/h, depending on the model and the required pressure dew point.
What pressure dew points are possible?
−40 °C to ISO 8573-1:2010 Class 2 and −70 °C to Class 1.
Is the dryer noisy in operation?
No. It is designed for low-noise, low-vibration operation and therefore also fits environments where noise is a nuisance.
How much maintenance is required?
The modular design and easily accessible components make maintenance work easier.
How do I calculate the performance at a different inlet pressure?
The table values apply to 100 psig (7 kg/cm²). At a different pressure, multiply the inlet flow by multiplier A and the purge flow by multiplier B. The outlet capacity is the inlet flow minus the purge flow.
What connections do the models have?
All models from HSHD-7 to HSHD-40 have ½″ NPT connections.
Who can help me choose the right model?
We can. We clarify the flow rate, pressure dew point and compressor output with you and select the right model. Call us or write to us.
Which dryer suits your application?
There are various pressure dew points and flow rates, which vary depending on compressor output and field of application and must be taken into account. Let us advise you to find the optimum model for your needs.
