The refrigerationdrying solution:PoleStar Smart
Compressed air is a fundamentalsource of energy for the majority ofindustrial production processes.However air from a compressor isoften too contaminated, too hotand, moreover too humid to be usedas an efficient energy source withoutprior treatment.
During compression, atmosphericair becomes contaminated withdegraded lubricating oil, dirt, wearparticles and, independently ofcompressor type, a large amount ofwater. On delivery to the point ofuse, this abrasive sludge can destroythe very equipment it is meant tooperate and, if not carefully re-moved can result in severe corro-sion, increased maintenance anddowntime, inevitably leading toreduced system efficiency.
Atmospheric air in industrial andurban environments can typicallycontain 140 million dirt particles percubic meter of air. These particlesare too small to be removed by theair inlet filter on the compressor andpass unobstructed into the com-pressed air system, as 80% of themare less than 2 microns in size.
Water contamination causes rustand pipe-scale to form in airreceivers and system pipe-work.This can break away and causeblockage in valves and orifices, lead-ing to high maintenance and costlyair leaks.Atmospheric air contains oil in theform of unburned hydrocarbonswhich are drawn into the compres-sor intake. Once inside the com-pressed air system, these oil vapourscool and condense into liquid form.
The majority of air compressors useoil in their compression stage(s) forsealing, lubrication and cooling. Theoil is in direct contact with the air asit is compressed, however, due tothe efficiency of modern air/oil sep-aration built into the compressor,only a small proportion of this lubri-cating oil is carried over into thecompressed air system. The oilmixes with water already presentand becomes acidic, losing its for-mer lubricating characteristics.
The result is unwanted abrasivesludge which corrodes piping andcan bring production processes toan expensive standstill.

Untreated compressed air does not preventlarge amounts of water from collecting inair receivers and downstream piping.
Moisture condensing on the outside ofcompressed air pipework (sweating)
Where does the wateractually come from?
Atmospheric air contains a proportionof water. e relative humidity (RH)heard in the weather forecast states theamount of water vapour as a percenta-ge that the air is able to retain before itstarts to rain, compared to the maxi-mum proportion that the air can retainat that specific temperature. For exam-ple, 60% RH at 20°C means that the airis holding 60% of the water vapour itcan potentially hold at that temperature.At 100% RH, the air can no longerretain the moisture as a vapour and it istherefore manifested as dew, visiblemist or fog. e temperature that cau-ses the vapour to condense is known asthe atmospheric dew-point.
The geographical humidity factors are,however, not the only significant fea-tures. The ambient conditions at specif-ic locations within an industrial envi-ronment, such as the local humidity ina building housing a compressor roomwith insufficient ventilation, play anequal part. The decisive factors are,however, temperature and pressure.The higher the temperature, the more
water vapour the air can hold and vice-versa. If you expand the air, it will beable to hold a larger quantity of watervapour; the quantity it can hold willreduce if you compress it.
Example.An air compressor takes in 8 cubicmeters of atmospheric air at 20°C and60% relative humidity. During the com-pression process this amount isreduced to 1 cubic meter at 7 bar pres-sure. The amount of water now in 1cubic meter remains the same as thatoriginally drawn into the compressor.The 8 cubic meters of air at 60% RH,which now take up 1 cubic meter ofspace exceed a relative humidity of100%. It rains when the ambient airreaches about 100 % in the normal out-side world. The same is true inside thecompressor receiver; as the compressorruns it continues to rain in the receiver;the greater the demand placed on thecompressor, the heavier the rain, sothat liquid water collects inside thecompressor. The amount of water is ofcourse relative to the humidity of theair taken in by the compressor.
A typical 30kW compressor drawing inair as mentioned above and compres-sing it to 7 bar pressure will generateapproximately 20 litres of liquid waterin an eight-hour shift. In one year thiscan equal as much as 4,800 litres!Whilst considering how much of aswimming pool this amount of conden-sate could fill, a 30kW compressor is arelatively small unit. As a plant manag-er, operating two 150kW compressorsunder the same conditions, we couldexpect approximately 650 litres of con-densate per day. That is 156,000 litresin a year!
Water removalAs temperature dictates the amount ofwater which can be held in the air, thehigh temperatures inside a compressormaintain the water in a vapour state.That is, until the air travels through thedownstream pipe-work to the point ofuse, cooling all the way until it finallyturns into a liquid state in pneumaticequipment or in the industrial processitself. It is therefore better to removethe heat from the air as quickly as pos-sible in a controlled manner at the exitfrom the compressed air system. Oncecondensed to a liquid state, watervapour is far easier and cheaper toremove from the compressed air sys-tem. Almost all compressed air installa-tions are equipped with an after-cooler(air, or water-cooled; – see ParkerHiross literature on: compressed airand gas cooling solutions), whichserves as the first air treatment stage atthe outlet of the compressor. If theafter-cooler is working correctly it canremove approximately 65% of the liq-uid water.Despite the fact that the after-coolerremoves large amounts of water, any
additional decrease in compressed airtemperature will result in the formationof condensate in downstream pipe-work. To deal with this physical phe-nomenon Parker Hiross manufacturesa ranger of refrigeration dryers specifi-cally designed to reduce the water con-tent in compressed air efficiently and inan energy conscious and environmen-tally friendly manner, to deal with thisphysical phenomenon. Any additionaldecrease in the compressed air temper-ature will result in the formation ofcondensate in the downstreampipework, although the after coolerremoves large quantities of water.
Removal of the remaining 35 %The water vapour is condensed to a liq-uid and drained away by lowering thecompressed air temperature below theambient temperature, using refrigera-tion. The compressed air, now cooledto approx. 3°C, is then reheated; other-wise condensation would also arise onthe cold compressed air lines runninground the factory at the factory site.The air is reheated using the heat of theincoming air to the refrigeration dryerand this raises the temperature to justabove the ambient temperature. Thecompressed air leaving the outlet of thedryer is then suitable for most industri-al applications with regard to its dry-ness.
The Parker Hiross PoleStar refrigerationdryer stands out from the crowd andboasts innovative, easily comprehensi-ble user benefits that save energy andavoid compressed air wastage, in asso-ciation with reliability and longevity,although it features many of the tradi-tional characteristics of commerciallyavailable dryers.

Several heat exchangers can be con-nected as a compact, higher capacitydevice, for larger dryers, such as thePolestar Smart (PST/750) shown here.Here, each unit is insulated by specialheat shield insulation (on the basis ofTSI poly-phenylethene), in order toachieve an even higher level of effi-ciency through higher heat retention.
Air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger(evaporator)
The air-to-refrigerant heat exchangertakes the pre-cooled air from the air-to-air heat exchanger and cools it tothe required dew-point, by transferring
heat into the evaporating refrigerant.After cooling, the air directly enters thehigh efficiency stainless steel demisterseparator where liquid water is removed,falling into the generously dimensioneddrainage chamber or sump.
Maintenance-free demisterseparator
No connections between pipes arenecessary, thanks to the geometricshape of the aluminium module, whileunimpeded flow through the heatexchanger matrix is guaranteed, so thatthe air speed is low and the heat trans-fer is improved. The low air speeds
even permit the installation of a slowflow high performance demister sepa-rator of stainless steel above the waterdrainage tank.
This demister contributes to the lowpressure drops within the SmartPackmodule, typically up to four times larg-er than standard separating demistersin which sufficient precipitation canfrequently only be achieved with diffi-culty at high air flows, in comparison tonormal centrifugal type demisters,while can only maintain the requiredprecipitation performance with diffi-culty at low air flows.

At the heart of the PoleStar Smartrefrigeration dryer is the SmartPackheat exchanger (patent pending).This highly-compact, all-in-one,aluminium module contains 4 treat-ment stages in one single unit:
Air-to-air heat-exchangerThe air-to-air heat exchanger func-tions as a pre-cooler and a re-heater.It ensures the pre-cooling of theincoming 100% saturated hot com-pressed air, by transferring the heatto the cold air exiting from the stain-less steel demister separator on itsway to the dryer outlet. This re-duces the likelihood of “sweating”on external piping, which can occuron non-insulated cooled surfaces inhumid conditions.
The heat exchanger supports thepre-cooling, which would otherwisehave to be taken over completely bythe refrigeration system, in this way,both the dimensions and the energyconsumption of the refrigerating cir-cuit as a whole are reduced.
On larger PoleStar Smart dryers(PST460 and above), the heat-exchanger block is multiplied upand installed in a modular fashionalong an inlet/outlet manifold, up toa maximum of 6 modules in a row.

The zero loss drain (SmartDrainer) issynchronised to open automaticallywhen it senses the level of conden-sate present in the drainage tank. Thevalve only opens to evacuate liquidcondensate and closes before any aircan escape. The self-diagnostic trou-bleshooting software will signal analarm and the drain will continue tofunction in a pre-programmed timedmode, returning to zero loss opera-tion when the fault has been rectified,in the unlikely event of a fault duringoperation
Parker Hiross demisters achieve a con-stantly high level of precipitation acrossthe whole range of flows in the dryer.The contribution of the larger demisterto the need for less refrigerant in therefrigerator circuit of the dryer is anadditional feature.The need for refrigerant is 15% belowthat of our competitors in most cases.
Large drainage chamber (sump)The generously dimensioned largedrainage chamber serves as a sump forthe intermediate storage of fluid wateruntil its disposal.

The PoleStar Smart refrigeration dryerseries incorporates a “direct-expansiontype” refrigeration system, therebyavoiding the higher full-load powerconsumption of other “indirect” con-figurations (i.e. thermal mass).PoleStar Smart PST075 and PST095dryers run continuously; a hot-gas by-pass valve controls and regulates therefrigerating circuit. The PoleStarSmart PST120 to PST1800 models havecleverly devised energy-saving features(SmartSave, patent pending), bymeans of which the dryer is controlledin the on/off mode, according to thesystem requirements. The evaporator,the compressor, the condenser and theexpansion device are the four maincomponents of the refrigeration dryer.These components are connected toeach other by means of high qualitycopper pipe, through which the refrig-erant flows in a closed circuit
Evaporator: (Air-to-refrigerantheat-exchanger) compressed air entersthe heat-exchanger at where theevaporator removes the heat andtransfers this to the cold refrigerant.This heat causes the refrigerant toevaporate and change to vapour, whichis returned to the compressor to becompressed. On larger refrigerationdryers (PST220 and above) a largevolume liquid separator eliminatesthe risk of liquid refrigerant returning tothe compressor.
Compressor: This is a mainte-nance-free refrigerant compressor withhigh energy efficiency from a respectedinternational manufacturer. ThePoleStar Smart PST075 and PST095models contain piston compressors,while all other models are equippedwith compliant screw compressors(scroll compressors), which offer clearadvantages because of their construc-tion.Above all, low-energy requirements (upto 20% less than equivalent piston-typecompressors), quiet operation androbust long-life reliability. Compliantscroll compressors require no pre heat-ing on start-up, they are not sensitive toslugs-of liquid refrigerant and functionwith less refrigerant than other com-pressors.
Condenser: Receives hot, high pres-sure vapour from the compressor andcools it down. The heat which wasadded to the refrigerant vapour duringcompression is exchanged with thecooling air /cooling water flow.(PoleStar Smart dryers are availablewith air-cooled condensers or water-cooled condensers). Condensationoccurs as the refrigerant vapour passesthrough the condenser, changing itsstate from a vapour to a high-pressure,partially cooled liquid on its way to thecapillary expander via a “Fil-ter/dryer” , designed to removemoisture and particulate which couldbe present in the refrigerant system.
Expansion Device: the refrigerantexpansion device inside PoleStar dryersis a capillary. This is a mechanical sys-tem which, in conjunction with the hot-gas by-pass valve (PST075 & PST095) orSmartSave (PST120 to PST1800)ensures a constant pressure dew-pointis achieved.This capillary expander reduces thepressure of the liquid refrigerant toensure the correct refrigerant flow rateenters the evaporator thus providingfor maximum heat exchange. Thissimple but effective capillary designwith no moving parts ensures reliableresults.
Hot Gas By-Pass: Its function is toprevent freezing of the evaporatorunder low-flow conditions. It does thisby sensing low pressure refrigerantleaving the evaporator and re-directinghot-refrigerant gas back to the com-pressor inlet as required. In this waythe valve acts as the refrigerant circuitcontrol device, maintaining a constantevaporating pressure across the evapo-rator. This ensures optimum dew-pointcontrol under all operating conditions.PoleStar Smart dryers use a 100% mod-ulating valve which is pressure actuat-ed, providing an immediate reaction tovariations in air flow, thus guaranteeinga stable pressure dewpoint.
On PoleStar Smart dryers incorporatingSmartSave controls, the hot-gas by-passvalve is still fitted to provide additionalsystem regulation in cases where thecompressor is kept running, in order toavoid excessive compressor start/stops.
Liquid Separator: the large volumeliquid separator (PST220 and larger)eliminates the risk of liquid refrigerantreturning to the compressor. Underideal conditions the refrigerant com-pressor runs at constant pressure andtemperature. The refrigerant existingthe evaporator is normally a mixture ofvapour and liquid which together flowinto the liquid separator.The hot gas coming from the refrigerantcompressor also flows through the liq-uid separator, ensuring completevapourisation of any liquid refrigerantwhich be present. The warm refrigerantvapour is then suitable to continue itsjourney to the suction side of the com-pressor.
Refrigeration CycleLow pressure refrigerant in vapourphase is compressed by the refrigerantcompressor and discharged to thecondenser .Hot refrigerant vapour enters the con-denser where it is cooled by air blownacross the finned tubes of the condenser, usually by a fan or alternativelyfrom a water source (water-cooled con-denser). The condenser changes thehigh pressure refrigerant from a high-temperature vapour to a low tempera-ture, high pressure refrigerant liquidwhich flows on through a filter/dryer
to remove any moisture or particu-late contamination. After this stage therefrigerant liquid flows to a thermalexpansion device , which ensuresthe correct amount of liquid refrigerantis entering the evaporator. At theexpansion device, high pressure liquidchanges to low pressure, low tempera -ture, saturated liquid/vapour. This satu-rated liquid/vapour enters the evapora-tor at the refrigerant inlet and ischanged to a low pressure, dry vapour,producing the cooling source requiredto cool down the incoming hot com-pressed air. Condensation occurs at thispoint and ultimately the fall out ofmoisture collected is drained away.
The low pressure, dry vapour exits theevaporator at the refrigerant vapouroutlet where it returns in the suctionline to the compressor, thus completingthe cycle.

The Compressed Air CycleHot compressed air entersthe evaporator via thecompressed air inlet. Itpasses through the air-to-airheat-exchanger ,exchanging some of its heat-energy with the exiting,condensate free, dry, coldair and re-heating the same.This re-heated, air exits theevaporator at the com-pressed air outlet.
The incoming compressedair continues through theair to refrigerant heat-exchanger , where refrig-erant cools the air down,causing condensation tooccur and collect in thedrainage sump for automaticevacuation.
Further condensationoccurs as the air then passesthrough an effective demi-ster/separator designed toremove all traces of liquidcondensate. At the pointwhere the cold compressedair exits the demister/ sepa-rator it is dry and free fromliquid water.
This air then exits theevaporator via the air-to-airheat-exchanger , increas-ing in temperature beforefinally exiting at the com-pressed air outlet.

Air cooled condensers comprise copperpipes and aluminium fins across whichair is blown by one or more axial fans.On PoleStar Smart models PST120 andlarger, the condenser is protected by a
wire-mesh pre-filter which significantlyreduces dirt accumulation on the con-denser and contributes to energy sav-ing. On all PST models from PST220and larger, the condenser section iscompletely independent from the restof the dryer, this allows for mainten-ance to be undertaken whilst the dryerremains in operation.
Water-cooled condensers are availableon all PoleStar models from PST220 toPST1800. The plate-heat-exchangerdesign is used where an air-cooledrefrigeration dryer would not work reli-ably. For instance, where the dryer is tobe installed in an enclosed, warm areaand/or where a cold water source isreadily available. All water-cooledrefrigeration dryers are supplied with
presso-static valves to modulate theincoming water flow in accordancewith the incoming water temperatureand consequential condensing pres-sure.

Pressure has an effect on the level ofwater vapour contained in compressedair. As a result, the atmospheric dew-point cannot be used to measure thedryness of compressed air. In this casewe refer to pressure dew-point. This isthe temperature at which water vapour
contained in compressed air at a partic-ular pressure will condense to form liq-uid water. Most refrigeration dryersprovide a pressure dew-point ofbetween 3 and 7°C ( ISO 8573-1). Waterwill start to condensate at temperaturesjust below these figures. Condensation
should not arise, even on the hottestdays, unless compressed air lines passthrough, or finish in, areas where theambient temperature is lower than thepressure dew-point set in the dryer.
Dryers are initially sized around a knownairflow, and then correction factors areapplied for the known environmental condi-tions. A minimum of four things have to betaken into account:
1 The flow passing through the dryeror the compressor type
2 The compressed air temperatureentering the dryer
3 The ambient air temperature4 The operating pressure
The refrigeration dryer should be conserva-tively sized to cope with the highest antici-pated flow at the lowest expected pressureand should be capable of operating withoutoverload on even the hottest days.

NOTEWater cooledcondenserssuitable forsea-waterare availableas an option.
Parker Hiross PoleStar Smart – Energy SavingDryers (PST120 and above)A refrigeration dryer is typically select-ed to achieve its design performance atthe users most extreme working condi-tions (i.e. a warm summers day with acompressor operating at maximumload). These maximum load conditionsare very rarely experienced under everyday operating conditions – First andforemost the compressor load will varysignificantly during the working day,thereby reducing the load on therefrigeration dryer itself. Furthermore,
average operating temperatures areusually well below the maximum forwhich the system has been designed.Seasonal variations and ambient oper-ating temperatures affected by com-pressor room ventilation can all add afurther reduction to the load on thedryer. The result is that the refrigerationdryer could, if it were capable of adapt-ing its working cycle to actual condi-tions, save significant amounts of energy.
Parker Hiross PoleStar dryers do justthat, continually and precisely modu-lating their mode of operation to meetactual operating requirements, result-ing in accurate dew-point monitoringwith aligned power consumption.
The cycling, energy-saving feature ofthe PoleStar refrigeration dryer(“PoleStar Smart”) effectively and pre-cisely controls and monitors thestart/stop operation of the refrigerantcompressor during periods of alternating demand. To enable this tohappen, the dryer runs for a period oftime without active cooling providedby the compressor, utilising only thestored “cold-reserves” contained withinthe aluminium SmartPack heat-exchanger. By fully integrating the func-
tions of evaporation, condensationand effective drainage in one block ofaluminium with large overall surfacearea, we are able to profit from the ther-mal attributes of this material, utilisingthe stored energy to maintain dewpointat zero cost. The addition of efficientinsulation material enclosing the heat-exchanger effectively prolongs the periodof stop/start compressor control.
The provision of a pre-filter beforea refrigeration dryer is not a luxurybut an essential component in anycompressed air installation. The intri-cate channels and chamberswithin the construction of the heat-exchanger can only achieve their maxi-mum thermodynamic performance atminimum cost, where protection
against particles and oil is provided(cost of pressure loss: the cost of electri-cal energy rises by 1% for each increasein pressure drop of 140 mbar). Wherefiltration is installed, the costly prema-ture replacement of heat exchangersbecomes a thing of the past.

Maintenance intervals are periodically dis-played whilst the provision of a statusreport (indicating the last eightevents) and hours-run meter simplifyservice.
Standard voltage-free contacts, MODBUScompatible supervisor (no gatewayrequired) and an optional RS485 serialcard connection allow remote moni-toring of the dryer.
An additional standard feature on modelsfrom PST120 upwards is SmartControl.is multi-functional display provides anaccurate digital dewpoint reading andvisual indication of the coded alarm moni-toring of the dryer.
SmartControl also controls SmartSave(patent pending); the user is informed thatthe dryer is running in the energy-savingmode. At the same time, a display showsthe respective energy saving achieved.
PoleStar Smart is supplied exclusivelywith compliant scroll compressors(from PST120 upwards) offering energysavings of up to 20%, in comparison toother systems. ese compressors arevery robust; they are resistant to refriger-ant backflow and have 50% fewer mov-ing parts than similar technologies.

e Parker Hiross refrigerationdryer provides ‘best in class perfor-mance’ with regard to the overallpressure drop across the range ofthroughputs, in addition toPoleStar Smart energy featuresenabled by the unique all-in-oneSmartPack heat exchanger. Largeair channels leading to low airspeeds, coupled with the absenceof interconnecting pipework, con-tribute to the unrivalled low cost ofownership.
Maximum dew-point control isarchieved by:
• large air channels leading to lowair flow velocity
• an oversized demister separatorproviding optimum condensateseparation, even at partial airflows
• a dew-point sensor positioned inthe air flow, to ensure optimumcontrol. (Note: every 140mbar of pressure drop adds approx. 1% to the cost of electrical power required by the compressor)
