Air dryers – pressure dew point −70 °C
A pressure dew point of −70 °C is the driest air that standard dryers deliver: water class 1 according to ISO 8573-1. It is needed in electronics production, laboratories, optics and technologies sensitive to the slightest moisture.
It is achieved by desiccant dryers with a desiccant for −70 °C. However, they handle only about 70% of the flow rate compared with −40 °C, which is why one size larger is chosen.
Dryer selection calculator: based on the application, compressor output, pressure and temperatures, it selects suitable dryers from all ranges.

The range links to a page with a table of all sizes. The flow rate applies to 7 bar and +35 °C at the inlet, converted to this dew point according to the manufacturer.
| Range | Type | Flow rate at 7 bar and this dew point | Pressure up to | Power supply |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Omega Air ADRY | desiccant | 70–2 333 l/min | 16 bar | 230 V |
| Omega Air ADRY TAC with activated carbon tower | desiccant | 70–1 750 l/min | 16 bar | 230 V |
| Omega Air ADRY BM for breathing air | desiccant | 70–875 l/min | 16 bar | 230 V |
| Omega Air B-DRY and F-DRY | desiccant | 1 283–75 833 l/min | 16 bar | 230 V |
A dew point of −70 °C corresponds to water class 1 according to ISO 8573-1 (−70 °C or lower).

When less is enough
For most applications, including food and air lines exposed to frost, a dew point of −40 °C is enough – the dryer is smaller and uses less air for purging.
Frequently asked questions
- Why is the flow rate lower at −70 °C?
- The desiccant has to capture more moisture, so the manufacturer specifies a flow rate of 0.7 times the flow rate at −40 °C.
