CPD Portable Desiccant Dryers

The CPD Portable Desiccant Dryers series is designed for demanding construction, industrial, and jobsite applications requiring high-quality, moisture-free compressed air. 

The CPD 850-230, CPD 1200-230, and CPD 1700-230 achieve a standard dew point of -40°F, delivering high desiccant quality air across a range of flow and pressure requirements.

Built for plug-and-play simplicity, the CPD series operates on 100% pneumatic controls, requiring no external power. Each unit features a stackable crash frame with lifting points and a sonic nozzle. A comprehensive filtration system, including a water separator and oil coalescing filter at the inlet and a dust filter at the outlet, protects downstream equipment and tooling. Durable stainless-steel valves, silencers, optimized galvanized piping, and a heavy-duty frame with integrated fork pockets round out the standard configuration for reliable, low-maintenance operation in the field.
