Abstract
A system for providing cooled compressed air free of entrained moisture. A housing surrounds a heat exchanger and has an inlet for passage of hot compressed air into an input plenum of the housing and an outlet plenum having an outlet for the cooled and dried compressed air. The bottom of the output plenum extends below the bottom of the heat exchanger to form a trough which collects condensate that collects on the plates of the heat exchanger, flows to the bottom of the heat exchanger, and is pushed by the flow of the compressed air to the output plenum. A shield is placed between the outlet and the heat exchanger to prevent condensate spewed from the plates of the heat exchanger from passing directly across the outlet opening or directly into the outlet opening.
