RFS APD20-D Automatic Dehydrator
The APD-D series Automatic Pressurization Dehydrator is designed for reliable pressurization of elliptical waveguide, coaxial cable and rigid transmission line systems. Dry pressurized air in the distribution system ensures that condensation is avoided and optimal system performance is achieved.
The dehydrator includes a self-contained completely automated air drying system that utilizes a pressure swing moisture adsorption cycle to provide pressurized dry air while continuously purging the collected moisture to the atmosphere. This eliminates the need for replacement or manual reactivation of the desiccant and makes our APD-D series dehydrators ideal for unattended operation, even at remote sites.
The dehydration system is completely automatic, with no need for periodic media replacement or reactivation. These units are capable of years of trouble-free service when properly installed, operated and maintained.
