ABSTRACT:
A moisture removal apparatus for a vehicular compressed air storage system includes a canister of mist-eliminating mesh that collects moisture and oil droplets in the air and exhausts them through a gravity drain. The mesh coalesces droplets of both water and oil vapor in the air stream, and is not contaminated by either. The mist eliminating canister can be a stand-alone device through which compressed air is delivered to a pressure tank, or may be integrated into a pressure tank for space efficiency.
