Designed for the T-AKE Lewis and Clark class, the Model 7974 Mk I dehydrator is a self-contained unit designed to remove water, oil, and solid contaminants from shipboard low-pressure compressed air systems. It is designed for continuous, automatic operation. The air delivered by this dehydrator is suitable for low-temperature systems such as cargo refrigeration control.
Moisture is removed by passing the incoming wet air through a membrane module. The membrane consists of thin hollow fibers made from tough plastic. The fi ber walls are coated with an ultra-thin layer of another plastic which allows the passage of water 20,000 times faster than air. Thus the water passes through the fi ber walls and is removed, while the air continues through the fiber.
Aerosols and particulate matter are removed by a coalescing and mechanical filter.
