It’s a game changer.

ULTRA dryers use on average at least 60 to 70% less energy than equivalent desiccant dryers doing the same job.

Typical savings after 5 years:

60
Minimum energy cost savings
60
Minimum reduction in CO2e
20
Minutes to dry material - faster production changes

Measurable results.

Energy cost savings

ULTRA Dryers save on average 60 to 70% energy compared to desiccant alternatives and often greater savings compared to older systems. ULTRA dryers pay for themselves.

Productivity savings

ULTRA dries faster – that means quick start-ups in 1 hour versus 3 or 4 hour start-up times with desiccants, and faster material changes with the added benefit of less material in process.

Maintenance savings

ULTRA dryers require no periodic maintenance. No process filters, no chilled water, no dew point and no desiccant – without any of the associated downtime and service costs.

Reduction in CO2e

ULTRA reduces energy usage and saves equivalent CO2e tonnage per year – great for ESG compliance and working to a more sustainable circular economy for the plastics industry.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Do ULTRA Dryers only save money from energy efficiency?

No! ULTRA generates large payback savings from gains in productivity by drying so fast. In fact, it’s like adding another process machine based on the savings from frequent materials changes!

ULTRA also saves significantly in other areas, such as maintenance, the removal or need for secondary dryers, plus ULTRA contains functions as standard that are expensive additional options elsewhere.

Finally, ULTRA benefits energy efficiency and ESG programmes and is also often eligible for local grants and funding for energy efficiency. What’s more, all ULTRA dryers are backed with a 5-year warranty.

How is ULTRA so energy efficient?

ULTRA saves on energy usage by drying within a vacuum. Under vacuum, the boiling point of water drops considerably, and moisture radiates out of granules. This means far less time, less blower power, smaller heaters, no desiccant regeneration, and no need for chilled water.

Vacuum drying is well established in many industries such as food and chemicals processing – Maguire has taken this concept and developed ULTRA specifically for plastics processing.

What is the Dew Point of the ULTRA Dryer?

ULTRA dryers use vacuum to remove moisture, rather than typical dry air. “Dew Point” is a measure of the water content in the typical dry air process – instead (with ULTRA) we monitor the live vacuum pressure.

So, there is no need for Dew Point with ULTRA dryers. See our ULTRA vs Dew Point explanation here for a more complete overview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6UhPlytgYM.

What maintenance does an ULTRA Dryer require?

Virtually nothing! Unlike Desiccant dryers that need frequent maintenance of process filters, desiccant, blowers and chilled water circuits, on an ULTRA there is virtually nothing to service.

On top of this, for further piece of mind, all components on ULTRA dryers come with a comprehensive industry-leading 5-year warranty – unheard of in the plastics drying industry!

ULTRA Dryers are amazing! Why isn’t everyone using them?

One day they will be! Maguire has pioneered drying by vacuum since 1998, and through 26+ years, we have developed 3 generations of dryers that improve drying by vacuum.

Now, application by application, the benefits of drying by vacuum are being realised versus traditional desiccant dryers (the way everyone used to dry materials).

Just like streaming music and iPhones replaced walkmans – we firmly believe ULTRAs will replace desiccants in time simply because of all the next generation benefits.
