Model 3062
Diffusion Dryer
1
Introduction
The Model 3062 Diffusion Dryer is designed as a general-purpose
aerosol dryer that has minimal aerosol loss. The aerosol inlet
incorporates a water trap that collects coarse water droplets. Two
concentric cylinders formed by an inner wire screen cylinder and an
acrylic outer cylinder contain an annular volume of silica gel. As
wet aerosol flows through the inner cylinder, water vapor diffuses
through the wire screen and into the silica gel. Particle loss is
minimized because the particles do not come into contact with the
silica gel. The silica gel is easily regenerated in an oven at 120°C. In
addition, the silica gel may be replaced by other materials such as
activated charcoal or sodium aluminosilicate.
