compressor arrives at the moisture and oil separator, where drop-form moisture is abstracted from it. The liquid collected is removed after definite time intervals by use of valve 2. The air, which has been preliminarily purified of mechanical contaminants in a coarse cleanup filter with felt elements, passes into the drier and subsequently passes through a bed of silica gel and zeolite.The dried air passes into the diesel generator cylinders through a fine purification filter which is intended to shut out dust-like particles of the adsorbent. The duration of a cycle of continuous block operation under a nominal work regime is less than 25 min.An experimental specimen of the drying block has successfully passed acceptance tests and has been adopted for batch production.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
