Air Dryer Range
Refrigerant Dryers
The MK-DS Series, with a specially designed heat exchanger and digital scroll compressor, provides unrivalled energy efficiency in a refrigerated air dryer.
Combining Mikropor’s expertly designed heat exchanger, leading filtration technology and digital scroll compression in Mikropor’s MK-DS dryers provides the ultimate energy efficiency solution for compressed air systems with varyinglevels of air demand.
Fundamental Components of the MK-DS Series
• Digital Scroll Compressor
• Electronic Expansion Valve
• Variable Speed Fan Motor
• Highly Engineered Control Algorithm
• Cutting-Edge Technology Electronic Controller
Advantages of the MK-DS Series
• Best in Class energy saving
• Refrigeration systems are designed with digital
scroll compressors and have an automatic switch to
control loaded and unloaded states according to
real-time air load demand during system operation
in order to maximize energy savings.
• Advanced and user friendly electronic control system
• Electronic expansion valve
• Fan speed control
• Integrated filters
• Low pressure drop
• Energy efficiency is maximized through the design of the exclusive
aluminium plate type heat exchangers.
• The advanced digital scroll compression technology not only improves efficiency, durability and reliability
but also lowers the decibel sound levels compared to a standard refrigerated air dryer.
• Environmentally friendly low-pressure R-134a refrigerant gas is used in digital scroll compressor to
pressurize the system.
• The smart control unit named kW-DS Controller provides high energy efficiency with electricity
consumption optimized for variable capacities.
Thermal Mass/Cycling Air Dryers
Compressed Air Dryers
MCY Series Air Dryers are highly reliable, efficient, have small space requirements and offer low cost ownership. Integration of pre / post filtration within the dryer cabinet saves labour time, installation cost and valued production space. The compact size also offers flexibility and economy during transportation.
MCY Advantage
SAFETY - Electrical Cabinet Isolation
• Best-in-class low package pressure drop saves energy
consumption from the supplying air compressor.
• Thermal mass technology offers stable pressure
dewpoint at varying loads.
• Mikropor state of the art “3 in 1” cast aluminium heat
exchanger provides unmatched longevity & cooling.
• Glycol cooling components are all stainless steel.
• 65 degrees Celsius Max inlet temp.
Mikropor Advanced “3 in 1” Heat Exchanger
Thermally Optimized Encapsulated Design
• Air to Air Exchanger
• Thermal Mass to Air
• Multistage Moisture Separation
High Strength Aluminium Design
Large Surface Area for Heat Transfer
Robust Cylindrical Casing
Scroll Refrigerant Compressors:
• Have fewer moving parts
• Offer smoother and quieter operation
• And are more reliable and more efficient than reciprocating types.
Moisture saturated Compressed Air from the Air Compressor enters a Particulate Pre-Filter then into the Thermal
Mass Dryer-Compressed Air Travels through a Coalescing Pre Filter and then 3 in 1 Heat Exchanger.
As the compressed air passes through, it is then cooled by the cold Thermal Mass System and water vapor then
condenses into liquid and is removed with the drain system.
Cold compressed air then passes by the incoming hot air to re-heat in order to prevent plant air pipes from sweating
– then the dried compressed air passes through a Coalescing Post Filter and out to the customers application.
Key MCY Air Dryer Factors
-
Mikropor MCY Series Air Dryers incorporate exclusive Digi-Pro series controller. The kW-CY digi-Pro controllers have outstanding technology for both functionality and durability in addition to visual appeal. The new controller design offers ease of adjustment with one finger, with accurate digital dew point display. In addition to coded alarm monitoring of the dryer.
-
• Digital dew point monitoring
• Periodic maintenance interval display
• Status report
• Hours run meter
• Fahrenheit and Centigrade selection
-
Easy access into the cooling components in seconds by the help of “easy lift” panels with integrated finger slots. Simplifies service access with quick access by technicians (no screws / fasteners to remove).
-
Mikropor MCY Series Air Dryers of larger capacity have ESD Digital Controller. With the help of the highly engineered kW-CY ESD Controller on the MCY Series Cycling Air dryers reduce energy consumption. The ESD interface assists the users to monitor many useful parameters on the dryer and guides them to troubleshoot any problem very easily. During the nights, weekends and holidays many companies do not stop their dryers although the compressors may be stopped. kW-CY ESD Controller saves huge amounts of money by simply shutting the dryer down automatically when it is not in use.
-
• The compressed air circuit utilizes grooved couplings and fittings to ensure a positive connection without leaks.
• These couplings assist the service technician to dismantle and assemble pipes easily and quickly.
-
• The GO Series Filter integration features.
• Zero Loss Drain system integration features.
• Manual valves allow the system to be depressurized safety when service is needed.

Mikropor GKON Series compressed air filters are a MCY Series dryer standard. The X Pre-Filter (coalescing filter for water removal) is used for up to 1-micron particles and the Y Post Filter (coalescing filter for oil removal) is used to remove oil down to 0.01 ppm. Listening to customer needs our engineers created a service friendly design. The Zero clearance design helps service technicians to replace the element in just a few minutes. The MCY Series dryer / filter combination has 2 elements and 2 Viton O-rings to ensure operation of the dryers at its best performance until the next planned maintenance.

Pressure drop is a large concern in compressed air. In many applications high pressure drops will cause a decrease in the pressure at the point of use which results the machines or processes not operating correctly. Presence of dirt particles and oil in the compressed air system may result in filter blockage. It is important for the end users and service technicians to recognize if there is a problem in the system. The performance of the filters directly affects the pressure drops and system performance. Therefore, it is very important that the filter elements are changed at the filter service time. MCY Series Digital Controls feature an alarm/warning indicating the appropriate time to change the filter elements. When the indication should occur, the element change will assist to avoid loss of performance and pressure drop.
