High Output Air Drying for Demanding Applications
The Altec Air P1500WHPX is a heavy-duty compressed air dryer engineered to provide clean, dry air for mission-critical operations. Using a heatless desiccant dehydration method, it ensures outlet air maintains less than 2% relative humidity, protecting pneumatic equipment, communication systems, and sensitive instruments from moisture-related damage. Housed in a durable exterior-rated enclosure, it delivers consistent performance in both indoor facilities and sheltered outdoor installations.
Dependable Performance Under Variable Loads
This model provides a steady 1,200 SCFD of continuous dry air output, with an emergency capacity of 1,500 SCFD for peak demand situations. Its adjustable outlet pressure range of 2 to 15 PSIG allows it to be fine-tuned for diverse applications, from industrial controls to specialized environmental systems. Whether operating in constant load conditions or responding to sudden usage spikes, the P1500WHPX maintains stable output without sacrificing quality.
Comprehensive System Monitoring with Remote Access
Featuring real-time digital monitoring, this air dryer displays all critical operating parameters on its built-in control panel. Integrated SNMP compatibility allows seamless connection to network systems, enabling remote performance tracking and alarm reset capabilities. Multiple alarm points ensure operators are immediately alerted to any issues, allowing for proactive maintenance and minimizing the risk of unplanned downtime.
Extended Service Life with Low Maintenance Needs
The P1500WHPX is designed for efficiency and longevity, offering an 8,000-hour maintenance cycle to reduce service interruptions. Its oil-less, two-cylinder 3/4 HP compressor delivers clean air without lubrication requirements, while the heatless desiccant drying process eliminates the need for heating components. This combination reduces wear, cuts operating costs, and keeps the unit running reliably over years of continuous use.
Compact Size and Quiet Operation for Flexible Placement
Measuring just 12" D x 17.25" W x 27" H and weighing 80 lbs, this compact unit fits easily into tight installation spaces. The quiet 48 dBA operating level makes it suitable for placement near work areas without causing noise disturbances. A 3/8” press-to-lock tube fitting simplifies outlet connections, ensuring quick setup and integration into existing systems.
Engineered for Reliable Operation Across Environments
With an operating temperature range of 40°F to 85°F, the P1500WHPX performs consistently in a variety of climates. An automatic shutdown feature engages if the cabinet temperature exceeds 120°F, protecting the compressor and internal components from heat-related damage. This safeguards performance and ensures long-term dependability even in demanding conditions.
