ELGIN, IL — SKF recently introduced the SFD (Separator Filter Dryer) Dryer System to its full line of specialty aftermarket products. Designed to enhance the performance of compressed air systems, the SFD Dryer System meets the demands of several industries that utilize compressed air, including automotive refinishing/collision repair, cement/construction and various “point of use” manufacturing applications, including SKF’s own plants.
The SFD features a regenerative desiccant dryer system designed to remove oil, contaminates and water from compressed air systems. Each unit contains internal oil separators engineered to extend the unit’s service intervals and reduce operating costs by protecting downstream pneumatic components. Engineered with two desiccant cartridges, the SFD Dryer channels air flow through one cartridge while the other regenerates, typically using less than 10 percent whereas most other air dryers consume up to 20 percent, according to SKF.
“With the introduction of the SFD, SKF has the ability to offer a product solution to various markets – from automotive and construction to printing presses and medical equipment,” says Tom Mahoney, Program Manager/SFD, SKF. “The technology incorporated into the SFD provides manufacturers, distributors and end users with a clear technical edge over any other specialty air dryer product in the market.”
