Dixon Valve, X03-02 Wilkerson Manual In-Line Desiccant Dryer

Applications

• 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.

Use

• Will dry up to 4400 standard cubic feet of air
• Desiccant is good for approximately 440 minutes at maximum continuous air flow before regeneration is required
• To regenerate silica gel desiccant, it must be heated to at least 350°F for approximately 3 hours or until color has changed from pink to blue. Allow desiccant to cool to room temperature before pouring back into unit bowl.

Features

• Transparent Bowl
• 1.64 lb. 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°F with dry desiccant at 100 PSI and 70°F

Note

• Filtration of 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.

Safety notes

• FRL's are designed for air service only, unless otherwise indicated.
• An after-filter should be placed downstream from the desiccant dryer to ensure solid contaminants such as desiccant dust do not migrate downstream.
• SCFM ratings at 100 PSIG inlet pressure
