ABSTRACT:
A gas dryer comprises a chamber with an inlet and an outlet for a gas which is to be dried by flowing under pressure through the dryer. The chamber is arranged so that the direction of flow of the gas is between its end faces. The location of the inlet and the outlet for gas to be dried are such that, when the chamber is mounted so that the direction of flow of gas between the inlet and the outlet is off the vertical, neither the inlet nor the outlet is arranged centrally at the low point of the chamber. The dryer includes a medium in the chamber for adsorbing liquid entrained with the gas. A drain tube extends from the low point region of the chamber at which liquid can collect when the dryer is mounted for use off the vertical into a depressurization outlet through which gas leaves the chamber when the dryer is depressurized. Liquid which has collected in the low region of the chamber is discharged into the depressurization outlet.
