Selection Criteria
To correctly select the dryer best suited for your
application, the following details are required
to ensure optimum performance and trouble
free operation.
■ Maximum Inlet Flow
■ Minimum Inlet Pressure
■ Maximum Inlet Temperature.
Once these operating parameters have been
established, you can select the most economical
PNEUDRI MiDAS for your application.

Example
Selecting a dryer for a compressor producing, at full load 13.6m
3
/hr
(8cfm) at 6 bar g (87psi g) with 35°C (95°F) air inlet temperature and
a pressure dewpoint requirement of -40°C (-40°F).
Step 1
From the sizing chart select the required pressure @ 6 bar g (87psi g)
and read across to the required inlet temperature @ 35°C (95°F). The
Correction Factor is 0.88
Step 2
To adjust the flow for your application, divide the required flow by the
0.88. Correction Factor
Example:
Sizing Capacity = Actual Flow 13.6m
3
/hr (8cfm) = 15.5m
3
/hr (9cfm)
Correction Factor 0.88
Step 3
From the Model Selector, select the dryer which has a rated flow
capacity of 15.5m
3
/hr (9cfm) or higher.
Selected model for this example is a PNEUDRI MiDAS DAS 4.
