Altec Air RAD-1500A-4-M

Altec Air RAD-1500A-4-M is a refrigerated air dryer rated at 1500.00 SCFM, with a 38 deg F pressure dewpoint, and 232 PSI maximum inlet pressure. The unit operates on 460V consuming 9.40 kW power. Shipping weight is 1240 lbs. The 1500.00 SCFM capacity suits high-capacity industrial plant and facility-wide compressed air networks. The 232 PSI maximum inlet rating accommodates high-pressure industrial compressed air supply lines. A 38 deg F pressure dewpoint prevents liquid water from condensing in downstream air lines, protecting pneumatic equipment, valves, and process instrumentation from moisture damage. Refrigerated air dryers cool compressed air to condense and drain water vapor before the dry air reaches downstream equipment and tools. The RAD-1500A-4-M is part of the Altec Air line of refrigerated air dryers. Available through authorized distributors including Compressed Air Advisors. List price approximately $33831.00. Contact authorized Altec Air distributors for current pricing and availability.
