For the treatment of hygroscopic polymers, including
those with demanding drying requirements, Piovan
provides a wide range of desiccant dryers. These dryers
are available with both desiccant beds or honeycomb
rotor technology.
All the models keep the moisture and temperature val-
ues constant,resulting in the highest consistency and
quality of the final product. The new generation of
Piovan dryers ensure optimised function in the various
processing phases and high energy efficiency. In addi-
tion, Piovan offers hot air dryers, also available for high
throughputs to remove surface moisture from non-hy-
groscopic thermoplastic materials.
Piovan also provides the ideal solution for mould dry-
ing. A series of dedicated dryers to avoid any risk of
condensation on the mould surface, above all in in-
jection and blow moulding applications with fast cycle
times and in PET Preform systems.

DPA COMPRESSED AIR
DRYER
From 0.5 to 25 kg/h
DPA Series use compressed air for dry-
ing hygroscopic polymers.
The running parameters can be easily
loaded from the internal database.
With the use of desiccant cartridges
DPA can reach lower Dew Point values
(up to –40°C).
For the models with glass hopper, the
removable cone allows easy and fast
cleaning operations.
The control manages the airflow in
7 increments and adjusts the dryer's
functioning according to the material
throughput. The system thus avoids
wastage of energy and compressed air.
DPA dryers can be equipped with the
IMD (Intelligent Material Drying) that
ensures an optimal management of
the drying process, avoiding material
over-heating and thermal degradation.
Thanks to the Material Database, the
control automatically regulates the
process condition once the materi-
al has been selected and the hourly

constant dew point and clean process
thanks to
• large absorbing capacity
• zero dust emission
• continuous regeneration process
and close loop cooling phase.
HR and HRM dryers are also flexible
since they operate with single or mul-
tiple hoppers and can be installed be-
side the process machine or on a mo-
bile frame.

charge diameter.
Like any Piovan hopper, TNS for flakes
assures optimum drying for consistent,
best quality final products.
Double air outlet reduces air speed
avoiding light material dispersion.
Discharging device Suction box VAH1 / VAH2 pneumatically actuated to work by batch and to
avoid clogging.
Level control Load cells (integrated in the frame) or continuous capacitive level sensor

Modula MULTI HOPPER
SYSTEM
Up to 2,500 l
Modula automatically adjusts
and controls all operating param-
eters for each individual hopper
and hence uses only the overall
amount of energy strictly required.
The airflow can be adjusted and
controlled instantaneously and in-
dependently hopper by hopper. In
addition, total airflow is modulated au-
tomatically by the central drying unit,
resulting in optimum process operat-
ing conditions.
Modula is characterised by:
• Self-modulating operation for 50%
energy savings
• Inverter controlled process blower
• Material database management
