ABSTRACT:
A moisture removal device for compressed gas lines and the like includes a connection head having a gas inlet and a gas outlet. An elongated housing having an internal cavity is attached to the connection head with the use of a clamp ring. The elongated tube and head are sealed to each other with the aid of O-rings preventing the escape of the compressed gases. Internal of the housing is a cartridge containing desiccant media for the removal of water vapor from a compressed gas. The cartridge is sealed and supported to the connection head with the use of a centrally threaded rod and O-rings located between the cartridge and the connection head. The external body of the desiccant cartridge is impermeable to gas and forces compressed gas from the inlet of the connection head to the bottom of the elongated housing. At the bottom of the housing, the gas inverts and enters the cartridge through the plurality of openings in the removable bottom plate of the desiccant cartridge and is forced to pass through the entire length of the desiccant bed. The gas which is decreased in humidity level is then allowed to exit the cartridge and leaves the housing through the gas egress in the connection head.
