Method for cool drying gas containing water vapour, whereby this gas is led through the secondary part of a heat exchanger (2), whose primary part is the evaporator (3) of a cooling circuit (4), whereby the temperature or the dew point is measured in the environment of the place where, when cool drying, the temperature of the gas to be dried is the lowest, and whereby the above-mentioned method comprises the step of switching off the cooling circuit (4) when the decrease of the lowest measured gas temperature (LAT) or the dew point during a predetermined period of time amounts to less than a preset value (y). |
