1/4" NPT InLine Filter/Water Trap Refillable Desiccant/Dryer H.D. Steel

Description

*Heavy duty/durable
STEEL
industrial quick coupler and plug
*Commercial grade, but priced for quick sale to non-commercial buyers.
*Install at
point-of-use
to protect spray guns, small plasma cutters, air tools, blow guns, sand/soda blasters, single valve actuators, and other sensitive equipment that require a
clean and dry air supply
.
*
Reduce water contamination
that can cause rust, corrosion and loss of power in air tools, "fish-eyes" or blistering in paint jobs, and rapid premature electrode and nozzle erosion in plasma cutters.
*Ported filter/water separator, and desiccant/dryer
flow-through
design for
decreased pressure drop
, as compared to other filters/separators of the same design.
*
Blue indicating desiccant beads
turn purple, then
pink
to indicate that the beads need to be replaced (do not discard, can be dried for reuse!).
Silica gel desiccants work best between 70-90 degrees Fahrenheit in 60% and above humidity. Trivia - cobalt chloride is used as the water saturation indicator. The moment the indicator turns pink, the silica gel has absorbed just under 10% of its weight in water... when this figure reaches 40%, the desiccant is fully saturated and is no longer capable of absorbing any more water. You can, roughly, estimate saturation point:multiply by 3 to 4 the length of time it takes to, initially, turn pink. For example, 1 hour to turn pink, 3 to 4 hours till full saturation.
*
Versatile; design your own assembly
; long and short hoses for flexibility; example 1,if you do not want to increase the perceived weight of your spray gun/air tool,attach the 3 foot hose between the filters and the spray gun/air tool; example 2, use the short hose between the filters if they are too rigid when connected directly to each other.
: HD steel
industrial
quick coupler and plug included
-
Mohs
hardness number for steel is 5.0-8.5 versus 3-4 for brass
- i.e., more durable, lasts longer, more connects/disconnects, etc.
- compare to images of wear on aluminum and brass couplers

for strength (versus plastic/nylon models)
: 1/4" NPT filter housing assemblies feature
see-through
polycarbonate bowls
: Filters are
vacuum packed
to ensure dryness until opened
: Maximum pressure 125 psi
: Protective housing covers included
: 3-ft and 1/2-ft rubber hoses, rated @300 psi, included
: Replacement blue indicating desiccant beads included
: All hoses have
crimped
brass ends
* Assembled in the U.S.A.
* Note- Frequent replacement of desiccant beads indicate heavy moisture content of the compressed air supply and may require cooling of the compressed air as it exits the compressor head to facilitate water droplet formation for treatment with a water/moisture separator, BEFORE it is piped into the air tank and for these filters to work more efficiently.
