Exceptional Reliability
Introducing the TS Dryer
A new non-cycling, refrigerated air dryer by Ingersoll Rand,
the TS dryer is designed to improve reliability, productivity
and efficiency, protect health and safety and lessen
environmental impact.

Micro-channel condenser

To accomplish this, the TS dryer incorporates several key technical innovations. Among these innovations are
its 3-in-1 heat exchanger(s), micro-channel condenser, microprocessor and Smart drain.
