Independent Engineering Support for FST Systems

FST is a German manufacturer specialising in compressed air treatment systems. FST desiccant (adsorption) dryers achieve dew points between -40°C and -70°C, serving critical process lines and outdoor pipework. FST refrigerated dryers provide +3°C PDP for general industrial applications.

FST desiccant dryer performance is monitored directly through the outlet dew point value; a rising dew point indicates adsorbent fatigue or valve failure. For refrigerated dryers, the condensate drain mechanism and refrigerant gas pressure must be checked regularly.

At HAVKOM Engineering, we provide specialist technical service for the complete FST product range: desiccant media replacement, calibrated dew point measurement, solenoid valve maintenance, and line filter element replacement.

Guaranteed Production Continuity & Precision Calibrations

All adsorption and refrigeration dryer overhauls, dew point transmitter calibrations, desiccant media changes, and zero-loss condensate drain servicing are performed using calibrated instruments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common inquiries regarding technical service, maintenance intervals, and spare parts compatibility for FST.

When should FST desiccant dryers be serviced?

Service should be carried out when the outlet dew point exceeds the target value, or annually as a minimum. Solenoid valve and regeneration cycle inspection should be part of the annual routine.

Why is dew point measurement important for FST dryers?

Dew point value is the only reliable indicator of actual dryer performance. Decisions based on visual inspection or elapsed time alone are insufficient; calibrated measurement is essential.
