4 Technical description
The model LTZ011, LTZ011-H, LTZ012 and LTZ012-H dual-chamber air dryer units
dry the compressed air to an insignificant residual level and largely prevent mois-
ture from getting inside compressed air systems and causing pneumatic equip-
ment to malfunction and wear prematurely as a result of corrosion and potential
freezing.
4.1 Technical features
See Fig. 1
The unit performs the following main function:
� Reducing the humidity level of the compressed air to an insignificant residual
amount.
Moisture in the compressed air of pneumatic systems may cause the pneumatic
equipment to malfunction and wear prematurely as a result of corrosion and po-
tential freezing.
Atmospheric air always contains water vapour. As long as the moisture stays in
the form of vapour, it is bound inside the air. Only when the saturation limit is ex-
ceeded (= 100% relative humidity), is the water precipitated in the form of
droplets, fog or snow.
Fig. 1 shows how the saturation limit varies with temperature, and how the air is
able to absorb more moisture with rising temperature. This explains why water
cannot be precipitated as the temperature of the air in the compressor rises dur-
ing compression. Precipitation only takes place when the air from the compressor
is cooled down again in the aftercooler.
Let us now illustrate this process in a simple arithmetic example.
At an ambient temperature of +30°C and relative humidity of 80%, one cubic
metre of aspirated air contains 24.5 g water in the form of water vapour.
Hence, one cubic metre of compressed air at 10 bar gauge contains
11 × 24.5 g = 269.5 g water. The temperature of the air rises with increasing com-
pression. After being cooled down to 50°C, however, the air in its saturated state
can hold only 83 g/m3 water vapour, which means that 269.5−83 = 186.5 g/m3
water are precipitated.
This example demonstrates quite clearly that the air in pneumatic systems is al-
ways saturated after being cooled down.
Consequently, any further temperature drop due to natural cooling will cause
precipitation, leading in turn to commonly known problems such as corrosion and
freezing.
Let us now continue our example to illustrate the matter still further.
As the compressed air cools down from 50°C to 20°C it deposits a further quan-
tity of 66 g/m3 water, while cooling to 10°C will produce as much as 74 g/m3.
This arithmetic example shows what a considerable amount of water is still left in
the pneumatic system in the form of vapour, even after the air has been well
cooled in the compressor and the precipitate removed.

However, a pneumatic system can only work reliably and efficiently if the air in the
system is dried so well that the relative humidity always stays below 35%. Atmos-
pheric corrosion does not take place below this �critical moisture" level, even
when the air contains so-called corrosion stimulators such as acids.
The air dryer units named above work on the heatless regenerative adsorption
principle. This method has proved reliable in rail vehicles in particular, and is the
most efficient arrangement known for this application.
This principle is based on the following physical process.
Humid compressed air flows through a desiccant (adsorbent) of crystalline metal
aluminosilicates which by virtue of their molecular structure have extraordinarily
large, specific inner surfaces and thus withdraw water vapour from the passing air.
Compared with other desiccants, they have the decisive advantage that they are
largely unaffected by oil. The silicate has very regular pore openings sized just to
allow the water molecules to be adsorbed, while the larger oil molecules cannot
be coadsorbed.

4.2 Construction
See Fig. 4 and 5
NOTE
The schematic in Fig. 5 shows a representative construction of a model LTZ012
dual-chamber air dryer unit. The construction of the air dryer units discussed in
the present document differs only in minor details from this representation.
The part numbers used in the following text relate to the dual-chamber air dryer
unit LTZ012 shown in Fig. 4 and 5.
The dual-chamber air dryer units LTZ011, LTZ011-H, LTZ012 and LTZ012-H de-
scribed here consist essentially of the following:
� Two desiccant towers (1), each with an integrated oil separator, and consisting
of bowl (1.10) full of Raschig rings (1.9); versions LTZ011 and LTZ011-H have
two filter cartridges (see Fig. 2)
� Bracket (21) with regeneration choke (61) and the following valves:
− two check valves (26) for the towers,
− a precontrol valve (39) for the control air,
� Duplex piston valve (14)
� Silencer (17) to discharge the regeneration air and to drain the unit
� Valve magnet (27)
� Electronic circuit board (28) for cycle timing
Dual-chamber air dryer units LTZ011 and LTZ012 designated additionally by �-H"
are equipped with a thermostat-controlled cartridge heater as well.
The model LTZ011, LTZ011-H dual-chamber air dryer units have fully exchange-
able filter cartridges (1, Fig. 2) instead of the towers (1).
The model LTZ012, LTZ012-H dual-chamber air dryer units can be equipped with
a slide-in frame (see Fig. 3).
All versions come in variants differing according to the diameter of the regener-
ation choke, the electric connection and the length of the working cycle.
The units can therefore be matched very widely to all possible working conditions.

4.3 Working principle
See Fig. 4 to 7
Functional characteristics
A heatless regenerative adsorption dryer of the dual-chamber type operates simul-
taneously in two phases, i.e. drying and regeneration run in parallel. While the
main airstream is being dried in one of the towers, the desiccant is being regener-
ated in the other.
Functional description
Fig. 5 shows the air dryer unit in the operating state in which the tower (1a) is dry-
ing and the tower (1b) is regenerating.
The valve magnet (27) is energized by the electric input signal coming from the
cycle timer; the valve seat V3 is open. The compressed air drawn off the air pipe
to the port A2 flows through the open valve seats V2 and V3 to the duplex piston
valve (14).

NOTE
The precontrol valve (39) is designed to prevent the duplex piston valve (14) from
assuming an intermediate position. It opens only after the necessary shuttling
pressure has been reached.
The shuttling pressure pushes the pistons (14.4) and (14.10) to the top and bot-
tom positions against the acting spring forces, and thereby opens the valve
seats V5 and V8.
Having been cooled down and predrained, the compressed air delivered by the
compressor flows through the port A1 and the open valve seat V5 to the
tower (1a), passes through this tower from bottom to top and is subsequently redi-
rected down through the central tube and the check valve (26a) to the port A2.
Before the air can enter the desiccant (1.6), it is first carried through the Raschig
ring filling (1.9) in the oil separator (bowl 1.10). Being repeatedly deflected, swirled
and impacted, the minute droplets of oil and water that are still suspended in the
compressed air are precipitated on the relatively large surfaces of the Raschig
rings. They gather to form larger drops which then fall under gravity into the col-
lecting chamber.
As the air passes subsequently through the desiccant it gives off so much of its
water content that the relative humidity of the compressed air leaving the
tower (1a) is less than 35%.
Some of the air thus dried is drawn off, expanded through the regeneration
choke (61) and conveyed through the desiccant in the tower (1b) in the opposite
direction. This expanded air, which is also known as regeneration air, extracts the
moisture from the desiccant that is to be regenerated, and escapes to atmosphere
through the open valve seat V8 and the silencer (17).
Shortly before the desiccant reaches its saturation limit, the unit is shuttled by the
electric cycle timer at T/2 (see Fig. 7), i.e. the valve magnet (27) is deenergized.
The valve seat V3 is closed and the valve seat V4 opened. The control line to the
duplex piston valve�(14) is vented.
As a result, the spring forces push the pistons to the top and bottom positions,
respectively. This action closes the valve seats V5 and V8 and opens the valve
seats V6 and V7.
In this condition, the main airstream (A1 −> A2) is dried in the tower (1b) and the
desiccant is regenerated in the tower (1a). Fig. 7 shows the cycle timing and the
various working phases.
To work correctly, the unit requires a certain shuttling pressure at which the pre-
control valve (39) opens and the duplex piston valve (14) can shuttle.
The two check valves (26) prevent the main reservoir and the onboard pipes from
being vented while the compressor is idle.

Cycle timing
The cycle timer is switched on together with the compressor. It controls the ON
and OFF times of the valve magnet (27) according to a fixed program.
When the compressor is off or idling, the cycle timer remembers the actual state
and continues the count when the compressor is switched on again. This arrange-
ment ensures that the desiccant to be regenerated is dried entirely and will not get
oversaturated in case the working cycle is displaced.
The air dryer unit is controlled in such a way that compressed air can always con-
tinue flowing through one of the desiccant towers, even if the shuttling facility
works irregularly.
Rating
See Fig. 8
The desiccant towers and the regeneration air choke orifice must be sized to en-
sure that − above a certain ambient temperature limit − the relative humidity of
the dried air is always below 35%.
The performance of an air dryer unit depends on the amount of desiccant used
and on the regeneration air consumption. It is described by the following para-
meters:
� Compressor’s volumetric intake
� Working pressure
� Air inlet temperature
� Ambient temperature limit
� Working cycle
The ratio of desiccant quantity to regeneration air consumption is optimized for
the conditions under which the air dryer units are required to operate in rail ve-
hicles.

Please observe the following notes on the ambient temperature limit.
It is not advisable to rate an air dryer unit for ambient temperatures below −30°C
if such values occur just rarely within the vehicle’s range of operation. KB SfS
dual-chamber air dryer units are engineered to yield a pressure dew point reduc-
tion of at least 10°C relative to ambient temperature (see Fig. 8). At ambient tem-
peratures below -30°C there is very little risk of corrosion due to elevated humid-
ity; this means the air dryer units can be operated at levels as low as -40°C
without any thought of danger.
The duplex piston valve in the model LTZ�011-H and LTZ012-H air dryer units is
heated by a thermostat-controlled cartridge heater to prevent it from freezing. The
condensate can therefore be discharged reliably to the drainage outlet under all
conditions.
To keep the air dryer units performing at their most efficient level, you should en-
sure that their air inlet temperature is not much above ambient temperature and
never exceeds 60°C.

5 Removal and installation
DANGER
Beware of a moving vehicle!
A vehicle allowed to move inadvertently will cause personal injury.
It is vital to observe the working rules for arresting a vehicle.
5.1 Installation
CAUTION
Beware of contaminating the pneumatic system!
Device and/or system functions will fail.
Keep out dirt during installation. If necessary, blow out the pipes of the
pneumatic system.
CAUTION
Beware of disregarding the installation instructions!
Safety will be diminished and functions restricted.
Installation instructions and installation drawings must be taken into account.
CAUTION
Beware of installing untested units!
Safety will be diminished and functions restricted.
Make sure that units are always tested before they are installed.
The system must have been tested and found to be in order before the vehicle is
cleared for service.
NOTE
It is vital to observe the maker’s safety instructions and directions for the use of
cleaning substances, sealants, adhesives, auxiliary products, working
substances, etc.
5.1.1 Requirements
See Fig. 9

To keep the air dryer units performing at their most efficient level, you should en-
sure that their air inlet temperature (A1) is not much above ambient temperature.
On no account may the air dryer unit be installed in the immediate vicinity of
sources of heat that might additionally elevate the desiccant temperature.
A good aftercooler (N) downstream of the compressor (K) lowers the air inlet tem-
perature and, hence, the temperature of the desiccant as well. However, the desic-
cant should not fall below a temperature of +10°C.
Fig. 9 shows how an effective aftercooler influences the temperature and water
content of the air prior to entering the air dryer unit. At +50°C inlet temperature,
the air still contains 83 g/m3 water, but only 23 g/m3 at +25°C.

6 Maintenance
Maintenance at KB SfS is basically subdivided into:
� Inspection � Servicing � Repair � Overhaul
The maintenance intervals required for the activities described below must be
timed according to the statutory operating requirements, the service conditions
under which the unit is used, and the environmental influences in the area where
the vehicles are run. An interval stated generally for all projects will therefore be of
only limited validity.
KB SfS has the capacity to test the state of its products regularly during their life-
time. The aim of this service is to find jointly with the customer the best mainten-
ance interval for each individual project. The interval applicable to a specific pro-
ject can be derived from the targets named in the table. The first target is always
more significant than the successively lesser targets.
The following tables contain an overview of the necessary maintenance activities.
6.1 Inspection
The unit must be checked for good external condition and correct operation at
regular intervals as specified by the vehicle operator.

6.3 Repair
Please contact a KB SfS Service Center if the unit develops a malfunction that
cannot be corrected by the measures described in Section 7.2.
Notes on repair, exchanging the desiccant
The desiccant will not need exchanging if it gets oversaturated as a result of a
malfunction in the air dryer unit, e.g. a cycle timing failure. The desiccant is regen-
erated automatically as soon as the unit starts to work normally again. Depending
on the degree of oversaturation, the unit may take several hours of compressor air
delivery until it has fully recovered.
The main reservoir will have to be well drained if large amounts of water have col-
lected there after an air dryer failure.
The life of the desiccant is virtually unlimited under good service conditions. As a
rule, it will be sufficient to exchange the desiccant of units LTZ012 and LTZ012-H
at the time of the main vehicle inspection. However, the desiccant may have to be
exchanged prematurely if it is severely contaminated by dirt and oil.
6.3.1 Auxiliary products and working materials
The following auxiliary products and working materials are needed; they can be
purchased from KB SfS by their order numbers (where stated):
� Chemical cleaning spirit for aluminium alloys, eroding less than 420 mg/(m2 h)
