Drierite Air Dryer

The Drierite Air Dryer is a versatile, all-purpose drying unit designed to remove moisture from air or gas effectively, ensuring optimal performance in various applications. This unit is ideal for both vacuum and pressure systems, providing reliable protection for vacuum pumps by preventing harmful moisture buildup during operations. It is highly efficient, capable of drying air to a -100°F dew point at atmospheric pressure or up to 90psi (6.2 bar). With a water capacity of up to 50 grams, the Drierite Air Dryer is perfect for laboratories, industrial setups, and other moisture-sensitive environments.

The recommended flow rate for optimal performance is 0.1 scfm (200 lph) at 90psi, ensuring consistent and reliable drying. Its compact, molded polycarbonate column design is lightweight yet durable, featuring a threaded cap for a secure seal. Stainless steel springs maintain the placement of No. 8 Indicating Drierite Granules, which are held between two felt filters for maximum efficiency.

How It Works

 Moist air or gas enters the dryer through a rubber hose connected to the bottom inlet. The unit is compatible with hose barbs that accept 1/4in (6.4mm) or 3/8in (9.5mm) ID tubing. As air or gas passes through, moisture is absorbed by the indicating desiccant granules, which change color to signal when they are saturated and need replacement.

Features:

• Dries air to a -100°F dew point under atmospheric or pressurized conditions (up to 90psi).
• Versatile use with both vacuum and pressure applications.
• Compact and durable molded polycarbonate column with stainless steel components for long-lasting performance.
• Easy to use and maintain with replaceable No. 8 Indicating Drierite Granules.

Accessories:

• Replacement Desiccant Crystals: No. 8 Indicating Drierite Granules available in a 5lb jar, ensuring long-term usability and convenience.
