Air Purge Water Oil “The system approach” “A coalescing prefilter is NOT an option with a Membrane Dryer! It is an integral part of the system.” - a famous pneumatic trainer MSD Dryer
13
Air Water Oil “The system approach” A good coalescing prefilter is necessary to remove bulk liquids and aerosols of oil and water at the inlet of the membrane dryer. Hydrocarbon (oil) molecules are much larger than water molecules, and will quickly plug the membrane pores, rendering it ineffective.

Air Purge Water Principle of Operation - Membrane Technology MSD Dryer

The MSD Membrane Dryer “Proven Technology for reliable, dependable performance” M18 Filter MSD Dryer Membrane Bundle Individual Membrane Tube
16
Individual Membrane Tube Membrane Bundle Consists of thousands of individual membrane tubes Cutaway and Close-up of Membrane Module

Nitrogen molecules Oxygen molecules Membrane N2N2 O2O2 Water molecules H2OH2O Membrane pore size allows water to pass, but Nitrogen and Oxygen molecules bond in pairs and are too large to pass.
19
Oil (hydrocarbon) molecules are much larger than water molecules, and will quickly plug the membrane pores, causing dryer failure. Oil molecule Water molecule Membrane
20
The partial pressure of water vapor is usually referred to as the vapor pressure. It is the pressure the water vapor would exert if it existed alone at the temperature and volume of the mixture. P = P a + P v (kPa) Where: P = pressure of atmospheric air P a = partial pressure of dry air P v =partial pressure of water vapor
21
Air Purge Water Membrane Technology (individual membrane tube enlarged for clarity) Membrane Pores Purge orifice Membrane technology: (A.) The process is simple- Saturated (wet) air has a higher partial vapor pressure than dry air. Water molecules migrate through the membrane from higher partial vapor pressure to lower partial vapor pressure.
22
Air Purge Water Membrane Technology (individual membrane tube enlarged for clarity) Membrane Pores Purge orifice Membrane technology: (B.)As air at system pressure expands through the purge orifice, its partial vapor pressure lowers. This air then “sweeps” over the outer surface of the membrane, causing the water molecules (with higher partial vapor pressure) inside the system to migrate across the membrane. Water molecules migrate through membrane to purge air side

MSD Membrane Dryers Coalescing Prefilters are a must with membrane dryers. Hydrocarbon (oil) molecules will rapidly plug the membrane pores, quickly rendering the membrane ineffective. Automatic mechanical drain removes liquid oil and water contaminants from the system.

Front of fold-out page in Brochure 9CW-DX-233 7/98. Applies to selecting dryers on all four graphs To read this graph: Plot actual application point (dewpoint and adjusted flow rate) on chart. Closest curve DOWN and RIGHT of point is correct model for application. EXAMPLE: 3 SCFM @ 0ºF ADP. Model MSD-03-KA1D is correct model..
