Hankison HPR5-10 Air Dryer
The Hankison HPR5-10 is a specialized refrigerated compressed air dryer designed for light industrial and laboratory environments requiring consistent moisture removal. Rated for 10 SCFM capacity, this non-cycling unit maintains a steady 38°F pressure dew point, effectively protecting downstream pneumatic tools and precision instruments from liquid condensate and internal corrosion. Operating on a standard 115Vac single phase 60 Hertz supply, it utilizes a reciprocating refrigeration system charged with environmentally friendly R134a refrigerant.
Built for durability and ease of installation, the HPR5-10 features 3/8" male NPT connections and a smooth bore copper tube-on-tube heat exchanger that ensures low pressure drop performance. The static condenser design eliminates the need for cooling fans, resulting in near-silent operation and reduced mechanical wear. For reliable water management, the unit includes an integrated float drain valve and a centrifugal separator that captures liquid regardless of varying inlet loads. This model is technically identical to the 2815-001 and 2815-002, making it a direct drop-in for established HVACR and medical air systems.
Key Benefits- Moisture Protection: Prevents pipeline sweating and tool damage by maintaining a consistent 38°F pressure dew point.
- Compact Footprint: Space-saving design with a rugged epoxy-coated sheet steel cabinet for long-term industrial use.
- Maintenance-Free Static Condenser: No moving fan parts reduces internal vibration and simplifies the refrigeration circuit.
- Low Pressure Drop: Large-diameter copper heat exchanger piping ensures maximum flow with minimal energy loss.
- Simplified Drainage: Features an internal pneumatic float drain for automatic moisture discharge without electronic timers.
What are the primary differences between the HPR5-10 and the 2815-001/002?
Technically, they are identical units. The different part numbers typically refer to specific OEM branding or distribution channels, but all share the same 10 SCFM rating and internal refrigeration components.
Can this dryer be used for 24/7 continuous operation?
Yes, as a non-cycling dryer, the refrigeration compressor is designed to run continuously to provide an immediate and stable dew point whenever compressed air flows through the system.
Is the R134a refrigerant pre-charged in the unit?
Yes, the HPR5-10 arrives as a factory-sealed, pre-charged system ready for immediate 115V AC plug-and-play installation after piping connections are secured.
