DRYING TUBE AND COLUMN FOR AIR AND GASES

G8260 G8261 G8262 The G8260 drying tube will completely dry air and by connecting the tube via rubber hose from a compressed air line or gas cylinder to the inlet of the dryer provides an immediate flow of dry gas to a dew point of -100°F. The indicating granules in the drying tube are a distinct blue color. When exhausted the color turns to a rose red or pink. The zone between the two colors in the column may be a purple color and this zone should be a sharp narrow band when the flow rate is at equilibrium. The color of the granules can be regenerated by drying them in an oven. The tube holds 30 grams of indicating granules and will absorb up to 3 grams of water vapor. The unit also has a flow rate up to 300 cubic centimeters per minute. The tube is constructed from unbreakable polyethylene 3/4" O.D. x 6" long and will accept 1/4" to 3/8" I.D. tubing. The G8261 is very similar to the G8260 which will completely dry air at atmospheric pressure or pressures up to 90 psi. The flow rate may be 200 liters per hour or 0.1 scfm. The dimensions are 2-5/8" x 11-3/8". The G8262 Dewatering Filter is ideal for pulling water vapor from vacuum pumps while reducing the frequency of oil changes. Meets AASHTO T-209-99.
