The advantages of the existing and successful dryer concepts CKT & EKO combined in one dryer unit: The dry air dryer type EKO-N
The heat exchanger concept in the pipe system adopted from the EKO dryer has been further improved in the EKO-N series and is used here even more efficiently and successfully. Thermal energy recovery reduces energy consumption by 20 to 30%, depending on the drying temperature of the material. This reduces the average energy consumption while maintaining the same quality.
The EKO-N dryer includes frequency-controlled drying fans and the energy-saving dew point control (both from EKON 300F) as standard. In addition to the Siemens S7 control system, all EKO-N dryers have a 10.4-inch touch panel display. This allows the user to clearly display all relevant operating statuses and information and adjust parameters such as drying time, temperature and dwell time at any time. The drying parameters of 28 materials are preconfigured in the material database and a further 212 customised recipes can be saved.
The patented KOCH-ÖKO energy system control is available for the EKO-N drying containers to maximise energy savings, adapting to the drying process in an energy-saving, material-friendly and intelligent way. The combination of dew point, ECO system control and frequency-controlled blowers enables energy savings of up to 50% in granulate drying.
