 description
The LAB4.50 dehydrator provides continuous dry air
flow up to 300 l/h with a dew point better than
-45°C. Output pressure can be set in the range from
10 kPa to 50 kPa.
The LAB4.50 achieves reduced mechanical wear and
noise and therefore a long lifetime by output pressure
measurement, microprocessor control and pump
speed regulation. Pumps speed control avoids
mechanical pressure regulators eliminating
undesirable pressure losses and a worse response to
plant air flow regulation.
Two drying chambers contain the desiccant and dry
airstream by adsorption process. The chambers
operate on alternate cycles so while the first chamber
dries, the second one regenerates the desiccant by
heating and backwashing with a small reverse dry air
flow.
This technology reduces overall power consumption.
pneumatic scheme
The following devices are available on the front panel:
 monitoring digital display
 function keyboard to scroll and modify settings
 power on and alarms LED
 on/off outlet valves
Output air pressure, hour meter, active alarm
messages, output pressure setting and alarm
thresholds are available on the digital display.
The basic version has low pressure, high pressure,
high humidity, power and system failures alarms. The
alarms are remotely signaled by one SPDT relay.
As option are available:
 remote control through SNMP protocol and HTTP
WEB browser by an Ethernet interface,
 remote control by a RS485/RS422 or R232 serial
link,
 digital flowmeter with data showed on the display
On the rear panel are available the AC and DC power
supply connectors, the connector for remote alarm
and the optional RJ45 connector for Ethernet interface
or D-Sub 9 pins for serial link.
The LAB4.50 always includes wall, floor, 19” and ETSI
N3 rack mountings.
