Function of the Dryer
PRODRY is designed to provide a smooth, controlled and
uninterrupted delivery of dry compressed air. Wet air passes
through a pre-lter and travels down to the bottom valve
assembly. The air is then fed through the bottom of the
desiccant bed and moves through the high performance
desiccant until it becomes dry. On exit from the desiccant
cartridge, the air is passed through the outlet valve assembly.
During this process, the dryer control system cycles the process
air between the two desiccant towers. While one tower is on
stream removing water vapour, the other is being carefully
depressurised in preparation for regeneration. The desiccant
bed is regenerated by expanding a small amount of dry
process air, or purge air, through the saturated desiccant.
Purge air passes to atmosphere through the silencer, which
is tted to an exhaust valve. The tower is then repressurised,
with the control system assuring each tower is at full
operational pressure prior to changeover.
This ensures a reliable and efcient operation. The air stream is
switched and the cycle repeats on a continuous basis.
• Engages Dewpoint Hold during periods of low demand
• resulting in energy savings up to 81%.

Technical notes
Pre-filtration, including a water separator is essential to maintain dryer performance.
1.
An appropriate Water Separator must be installed. If bulk water enters the adsorption dryer it can cause heat
expansion to the desiccant, substantial rise in the dryer differential pressure, lead to poor outlet dewpoint, and
2.
cause potential dryer failure.
Walker Filtration recommends fitting an RXA dust filter to the outlet.
3.
Call your nearest Walker Filtration sales team for further information.

Purge Orice Size Identication
• Reference gure 4.13 and the Purge Plug Identication Table.
• Each dryer is pre-set with the correctly sized purge valve for an operating pressure of 7 barg (100 psig) at point of order.
• The lettering (A through S), located on the purge valve body, indicates the orice size selected to suit the operating pressure of
the dryer per the chart below.
• If the inlet pressure to the dryer will be different than the pre-set orice size, the purge valve can be adjusted.
• Most dryers use a single orice purge valve represented by the Blue and Green single letter references in the table below.
• Larger dryers may require a two or three hole purge valve as represented by the Red and Yellow two and three letter references.
• To select the correct orice size, locate the appropriate dryer model at the left side of the table and then the operating pressure
at the top.
• Make sure that the correct valve body (1, 2 or 3 hole) and orice disc (01, 02, 03 or 04) has been supplied with the dryer. The
discs have the number (01, 02, 03 or 04) stamped out at the top.

How to wire a DIN connector
Models PD0046 - PD0360
• Locate the DIN connector on the back of the controller.
• Remove the screw completely from the centre of the
connector.
• Remove the blanking plug, if present, from the
connector and discard.
• Insert a small at screwdriver into the small recess at
the edge of the insert, pry the insert out of the DIN
connector’s outer shell per gure 5.3.
• Per gure 5.4, slip cable end through DIN connector’s
cable gland, washer, grommet and out through the
front of the DIN connector case.
Cable diameter should be no greater than 6mm
(1/4”). Larger diameters do not fit well into the
cable gland of the DIN connectors.
Cable should be round as rectangular cable
or ribbon cable will not seal properly in DIN
connectors grommet.
• Strip the outer insulation of the cable back approx
20mm (3/4”).
• Strip the conductor insulation back approx 3mm (1/8”).
• Insert conductors into appropriate pins of insert.
Tighten retaining screws securely.
• Determine which direction the cable gland should
point.
• Carefully pull the cable back through the case until the
insert snaps back into place. Take care to work the wires
around the retaining screw hole as they can become
fairly easily pinched.
• Plug the DIN connector back onto the appropriate
electrical connection on the back of the dryer’s
controller per gure(s) 5.1 and 5.2. Take care to make
sure that sealing gasket is in place.

Operation
Background / Function of the dryer
PRODRY is designed to provide a smooth, controlled and
uninterrupted delivery of dry compressed air. Wet air passes
through a pre-lter and travels down to the bottom valve
assembly. The air is then fed through the bottom of the
desiccant bed and moves through the high performance
desiccant until it becomes dry. On exit from the desiccant
cartridge, the air is passed through the outlet valve assembly.
During this process, the dryer control system cycles the process
air between the two desiccant towers. While one tower is on
stream removing water vapour, the other is being carefully
depressurised in preparation for regeneration. The desiccant
bed is regenerated by expanding a small amount of dry
process air, or purge air, through the saturated desiccant.
Purge air passes to atmosphere through the silencer, which is
tted to an exhaust valve. The chamber is then repressurised,
with the control system assuring each chamber is at full
operational pressure prior to changeover.
This ensures a reliable and efcient operation. The air stream is
switched and the cycle repeats on a continuous basis.

Energy Management
Please note that the Energy Management feature
should not be used when a hygrometer is
installed in the dryer.
Overview
Regenerative dryers must expel a portion of the process air
in order to free themselves of accumulated moisture. During
periods of low air demand, however, this air loss is not
necessary and is therefore undesirable. In many cases, the
compressor runs almost continuously in order to keep up with
the dryer’s purge loss.
All Walker Filtration dryers are equipped with an Energy
Management feature that allows the purge to be shut off
during periods of low or no demand. The dryer controller
is tted with a set of eld accessible contacts, that can be
employed to shut off the solenoid valves which control the
purge function of the dryer, therefore eliminating any air loss
from the dryer.
Developing a Purge Control Strategy
In order to utilise this function, the operator must provide a
switching system that provides acceptable logic to indicate to
the dryer that there is little or no air demand. On the following
pages, some examples of commonly used switching systems
are provided in ascending order of complexity.
Using a Manual Switch for Purge Control
The simplest of arrangements, a manual switch may be
employed to shut the purge off when the air downstream of
the dryer is not being used. Commonly used on point of use
systems. For example, if the dryer is only used to supply air of
an appropriate dryness to a specic machine or application,
the dryer will only be required when the machine is in use and
may be shut off either manually or possibly via extra contacts
provided in the machine’s on/off switch.
It is extremely important to understand that the purge may
only be shut off during periods of low or no demand. This
feature, if used otherwise, can result in permanent damage
to the desiccant beds resulting in loss of drying capacity
and possibly mechanical failure. The cartridges must not be
allowed to become fully saturated at any time.
The following schematic ( Fig 7.1) offers an overview of the
devices mentioned as they might be connected for use in
controlling a dryer’s purge function. Please note that specic
details differ between device manufacturers, so in all cases the
manufacturer’s specications should be adhered to.

Pressure Switch
Using a Standard Pressure Switch for Purge Control
Many compressors come equipped with pressure switches
with extra contacts that can be utilised to switch off the
dryer’s purge when the compressor is in an unloaded state.
Unfortunately, many of these switches have signicantly large
dead bands (difference between the load (on) and unload (off)
settings that in most cases cannot be altered). The amount of
air that can pass downstream, through the dryer, while the
compressor is unloaded must be taken into consideration as it
can be signicant, especially if there is a large dead band and/
or large wet receiver.
Often, a stand-alone pressure switch is a better option
as it allows the user to adjust it independently from the
compressor’s pressure switch. When selecting a stand-alone
pressure switch, the smaller the dead band the better.
When using a stand-alone pressure switch, the dryer is wired
into the normally closed (LED Controller) or normally open
(DMC Controller) contacts on the pressure switch. When the
switch is actuated (at 100 psig in the example), the purge
shuts off until the pressure switch deactuates (at 95 psig in
example). The point at which the switch deactuates, may be
adjusted to suit the system.
If it is determined that the dewpoint drops to an unacceptable
level, the deactuation point must be increased. Please note
that with most standard pressure switches, the dead band is
xed such that the activation and deactuation points move
together.
It is extremely important to understand that the purge may
only be shut off during periods of low or no demand. This
feature, if used otherwise, can result in permanent damage
to the desiccant beds resulting in loss of drying capacity
and possibly mechanical failure. The cartridges must not be
allowed to become fully saturated at any time.
Figures 7.3 and 7.4 offer an overview of the devices
mentioned as they might be connected for use in controlling
a dryer’s purge function. Please note the specic details
differ between device manufacturers, so in all cases the

Using an Electronic Pressure Switch for Purge Control
The best choice if using a pressure switch is to select an
electronic programmable type pressure switch which is
effectively a pressure transmitter and process controller
built into one device. While signicantly more costly than
a standard pressure switch, an electronic programmable
pressure switch can be setup to provide a much more
customized operation. Typically, the dead band can be
reduced or eliminated so that an immediate reaction to

Using a hygrometer and process controller for
purge control
The best option for purge control if the delivered dryness
(pressure Dewpoint) of the air from the dryer is critical. If the
air is deemed dry enough, than the purge can be shut off until
the air’s moisture starts to climb. If the purge is turned off,
care must be taken to ensure that the desiccant beds are not
allowed to wet out too far before the purge is turned back
on. Also, after turning the purge back on, the air’s pressure
Dewpoint may increase a bit before starting to drop again.
This should be taken into consideration to ensure that the air
ow remains sufciently dry.
It is extremely important to understand that the purge may
only be shut off during periods of low or no demand. This
feature, if used otherwise, can result in permanent damage
to the desiccant beds resulting in loss of drying capacity
and possibly mechanical failure. The cartridges must not be
allowed to become fully saturated at any time.
Figures 7.8 and 7.9 offer an overview of the devices
mentioned as they might be connected for use in controlling
a dryer’s purge function. Please note that specic details
differ between device manufacturers, so in all cases the
manfacturer’s specications should be adhered to.
