Manual air dryers are used to remove water vapor from compressed air systems, in applications such as paint spraying, laboratory instruments and small control air systems. Filtration for absorber type dryers is important to protect the desiccant bed from contamination. Cleaner incoming air will result in better performance, longer life and fewer service problems. To regenerate silica gel desiccant, it must be heated to at least 350 deg F for approximately 3 hr or until color has changed from pink to blue. Allow desiccant to cool to room temperature before pouring back into unit bowl. An after-filter should be placed downstream from the desiccant dryer to ensure solid contaminants such as desiccant dust do not migrate downstream.

- Desiccant is good for approximately 440 min at maximum continuous air flow before regeneration is required
- To regenerate silica gel desiccant, it must be heated to at least 350 deg F for approximately 3 hrs or until color has changed from pink to blue
- Allow desiccant to cool to room temperature before pouring back into unit bowl
- Silica gel changes from blue to pink to indicate the need to replace or regenerate the desiccant
- Slotted bowl guard for visual detection of color change
- No electrical connection necessary
- Provides atmospheric dew point of -45 deg F with dry desiccant at 100 psi and 70 deg F
