New Waterborne Automotive Finishes require a flow of air to evaporate the water and let the finish dry.

Infrared heaters can dry the paint too quickly, causing bubbles.

Compressed Air Handheld or Stationary dryers use huge quantities of expensive compressed air. An air compressor is not designed to create large quantities of low pressure air. It is designed to produce high pressure air to operate air tools. Using a compressor to supply air to paint dryers, even with venturi devices, is inefficient, expensive, and can pass contaminants onto the paint surface. Operating the compressed air panel dryers often reduces shop air pressure and reduces productivity. With compressed air, you are paying to compress the air, paying to make it clean and dry enough to use with a panel dryer, and considering having to pay more for a larger compressor to keep the compressed air panel dryers going and still be able to work in the shop.

The Lex-Aire Turbine was created to produce large quantities of clean, dry, warm, oil-free air. We add a high efficieny 3 micron filter to make it even cleaner. Station it next to the panels after the booth is clear, and you will get a constant flow of air from the distribution tower, without having to worry about running down the shop air, or water & oil coming out of the dryer. Turbo-Dryer is almost maintenance free. Our dryers can pay for themselves in electricity savings alone.

Advantages Over Compressed Air Dryers

A dryer that uses compressed air has several problems

• Cost - Compressed Air is Costly to Produce. Cleaning That Air of Oil & Water is More. Purchasing a Larger Compressor to Accomodate Venturi Dryers Costs Even More

• Productivity - With Turbo-Dryer, Your Air Compressor Can Be Running Shop Tools. No Waiting For Pressure To Build Up

• Efficiency - Compressed Air that has been run through a refrigerant drier is cool. As it expands in the venturi, it cools even more. This is how an air conditioner works. This increases the relative humidity of the drying air, decreasing its ability to evaporate water out of the paint finish. Turbo-Dryer creates a large volume of clean, dry, warm, oil-free air. Warming the air lowers its relative humidity and increases its ability to evaporate water from the paint surface.

• Adaptable - Turbo-Dryer uses 1 1/2" PVC pipe to distribute the air. If you need a different length, height, or air hole placement, just get some PVC pipe, drill 3/8" holes to suit, and match Turbo-Dryer to the vehicles you work on!
