VV-D
GIEBEL Adsorbers® of the VV-D series are disposable aeration dryers without valves. They are suitable for indoor, outdoor and offshore use on hydraulic power packs, gearboxes, drums and IBCs as well as on mobile machinery.
The plastic housing is filled with GIEBEL Xdry®. The desiccant mixture ensures effective drying of the supply air. A 3 μm filter additionally cleans the sucked-in air. When air is forced out of the system, a layer of activated carbon adsorbs escaping oil mist, thus protecting the desiccant and the environment from contamination. When the adsorber is saturated, it is replaced. We recommend the use of the VV-D series especially for plants with permanent air exchange and short maintenance intervals.
VV-DV

When air is forced out of the system, a layer of activated carbon adsorbs escaping oil mist, thus protecting the desiccant and the environment from contamination. When the adsorber is saturated, only the cartridge is replaced. The stable and frost-proof valve part remains on the system. It protects the adsorber from unnecessary loading, enables use under extreme, dusty ambient conditions, and ensures minimal pressure build-up even at high air flows.

VL-R
GIEBEL Adsorber® der Baureihe VL-R Mehrweg-Inline-Filter mit beidseitigem Gewindeanschluss. Das Plastik-Gehäuse ist mit GIEBEL Xdry® gefüllt. Die Trockenmittelmischung sorgt für eine effektive Trocknung der Zuluft. Zusätzlich zum Trockenmittel ist ein Filter integriert, der Abriebe und Umgebungsschmutz abscheidet.
VL-R Adsorber werden zur Trocknung von Luftströmen bei kleinen Laseranlagen bis hin zu großen Lagertanks eingesetzt. Mit einem DN50 Gewinde können auch große Volumenströme durch den Adsorber geführt werden.
Bei Bedarf lassen sich die Inline-Filter auch mit anderen Trockenmitteln füllen – z.B. mit Molekularsieben (3A,4A,5A, 13X), wenn neben der Abscheidung von Feuchtigkeit auch gezielt andere Stoffe adsorbiert werden sollen. Ist der Adsorber gesättigt, können sowohl die Trockenmittelschüttung als auch bei Bedarf alle anderen Komponenten des Innenlebens kostengünstig getauscht werden.

VM-R

If required, the inline filters can also be filled with other desiccants – e.g. molecular sieves (3A,4A,5A, 13X), if other substances are to be specifically adsorbed in addition to the separation of moisture. Once the adsorber is saturated, both the desiccant bed and, if required, all other components of the inner workings can be replaced at low cost.

HS-D
GIEBEL Adsorbers® of the HS-D series protect gearboxes from water droplet ingress while allowing them to breathe. With the help of an ePTFE filter in the core of the robust polyamide housing, the gear oil is protected from contamination with water, even when the gear is used outdoors or cleaned with water.
The 0.3 micrometer pores of the membrane filter retain water or oil, but allow air to flow through. The pressure build-up remains low.
The HS-D membrane filters are an excellent alternative to adsorbers when liquid water is a challenge for a gearbox, but humidity does not cause problems.

AS-D
GIEBEL Adsorbers® of the AS-D series are acid separators without valves. They consist of a PVC housing with activated carbon filling and are used to separate aggressive substances before they evaporate into the environment. Even when adsorbing formic acid and hydrochloric acid, the adsorbers remain stable over a long period of time. As a disposable design, the AS-D adsorbers are easy to install and efficient and quick to replace.
They are mainly used in plants of the chemical industry, especially on IBC containers and barrels. However, other plants can also be equipped with this type of adsorber.
