SKF recently introduced its new high-capacity (HC) Dual Turbo-2000 air dryer, an advanced version of the standard SKF Brakemaster Dual Turbo-2000 air dryer designed with a greater maximum compressor size.
The new HC Dual Turbo-2000 is ideal for large compressor output applications and is available in 12-volt/75-watt (6.6-amp) and 24-volt/75-watt (3.2-amp) options.
This air dryer can withstand compressor air flow output of up to 80 scfm and up to 40% compressor duty cycle; the standard Dual Turbo-2000 withstands up to 40 scfm and 100% compressor duty cycle. Additionally, the HC Dual Turbo-2000 includes the same internal filtration package with 99.9% efficiency as the standard Dual Turbo-2000 air dryer. It also meets the 2010 EPA requirements for high-output compressors on transit buses.
