How to monitor the loading status

Learn how to correctly interpret the different color gradients of the desiccant in your breather dryers.

Loading of breather dryers.


Unloaded


The adsorber is completely orange in color. 


This means that it has adsorbed little or no moisture so far.


Loaded from above


The adsorber is green at the top and orange at the bottom.


This means that the adsorber has mainly dried the outgoing air. There was a high level of moisture in the system.


Loaded from below


The adsorber is orange at the top and green at the bottom.


This means that the adsorber has mainly dried the incoming air. The system is reliably protected.


Fully loaded


The adsorber is completely green.


This means it is time to replace the adsorber or desiccant. The adsorber has reached its maximum absorption capacity!
