FLEX Series Sustainable Energy Saving Solution
Hankison FLEX Series refrigerated dryers are a sustainable energy-saving solution that harnesses the latest advancements in heat transfer technology. These refrigerated dryers are designed to effectively eliminate liquid contamination from compressed air and provide cost-effective energy savings by matching electrical power consumed in direct proportion to air demand.
FLEX-FP Series Extended Warranty
Protect Your Equipment
As an extra measure of protection, Hankison will provide additional coverage beyond the standard 2-year warranty. Purchase and register a FLEX dryer with filtration package to qualify for an extended warranty up to 5 years. Warranty will be extended yearly through the purchase and installation of a qualifying annual maintenance kit. Extended warranty covers up to 3 years additional protection, parts and labor, a total of 5 years. Reference the General Terms, Warranty Policies & Procedures Handbook for more details.
How it works
The FLEX Series utilizes a phase change (PCM) heat transfer medium between the refrigeration and compressed air circuits that serve as a reservoir for thermal storage. The thermal reservoir is comprised of a 3-in-1 heat exchanger (patent pending) filled with a phase change material that efficiently transfers heat energy through a "change of state."
Phase Change: changing from liquid to solid back to liquid in a continuous cycle. The refrigeration circuit operates to cool down the PCM until it forms into a solid at which time the refrigeration system cycles off. As the compressed air enters the PCM to air section of the heat exchanger, the PCM media absorbs heat for the airstream and begins to melt the PCM media at a constant temperature. When most of the PCM media has turned to liquid the refrigeration system cycles on to again cool down the PCM media turning it back into a solid. This cycle repeats as required to meet the corresponding compressed air load on the FLEX dryer.
