The '''Compressed Air Dryers''' are commonly found in a wide range of industrial and commercial facilities. The [[Air Dryers]] are used to remove water vapor from '''Compressed Air Dryers'''. | The '''Compressed Air Dryers''' are commonly found in a wide range of industrial and commercial facilities.

The process of air compression concentrates atmospheric contaminants, including water vapor. This raises the dew point of the compressed air relative to free atmospheric air and leads to condensation within pipes as the compressed air cools downstream of the compressor. | The process of air compression concentrates atmospheric contaminants, including water vapor.
