Description
Atlas Copco FX7 A6 Refrigerated Air Dryer 115V 60Hz R-404A 1-Ph 0.91kW 1in NPT
The Atlas Copco FX7 (A6) is a compact, freestanding refrigerated compressed air dryer designed to remove moisture from compressed air lines in industrial and manufacturing environments. It uses R-404A refrigerant in a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle to cool incoming compressed air, causing water vapor to condense and drain before the dry air continues downstream. This unit is manufactured in Italy by Atlas Copco Airpower N.V. (Belgium) and dates from 2011.

Applications
Refrigerated air dryers are a standard component of industrial compressed air systems. When compressed air leaves a compressor, it is saturated with water vapor that, if left untreated, causes corrosion in pipes, tool wear, product contamination, and freeze damage in cold environments. A refrigerated dryer like the FX7 cools the air stream to near its pressure dew point (typically 2–10°C), condensing and draining the moisture before the dry air reaches downstream tools, pneumatic controls, or production processes. The Atlas Copco FX series is widely used in manufacturing plants, machine shops, paint booths, food and beverage processing, and general industrial facilities where a reliable supply of dry compressed air is essential. The FX7 A6 is sized for smaller to mid-range compressor systems. This unit uses R-404A refrigerant, which was a common hydrofluorocarbon blend used in commercial refrigeration during the 2000s and 2010s before phasedown regulations began. Technicians working on R-404A systems will need appropriate recovery and handling equipment.
This Atlas Copco FX7 A6 Refrigerated Air Dryer is being sold as-is due to a broken power switch. The switch has broken off and is permanently stuck in the ON position, meaning the unit powers on as soon as AC power is applied — there is no way to switch it off at the unit itself. It does power on and draws approximately 6.5 amps, but we were unable to verify its air drying performance or full refrigeration functionality. The front cover shows some scratches and dings from prior use. This unit requires special shipping due to its size and weight — please contact us before purchasing for a shipping quote, to arrange local pickup, or to schedule a viewing at our facility.
