hey, so I have assembled a similar system in my shop with a Derale cooler to 'densify' the hot air before it reaches the beads . I used 2 Pentec housings in series ( overkill but air is REALLY DRY). a few things I've added to this idea for safety are.... 1- I added a 100 psi pressure release pop-up valve inline as a precaution and also a regulator and gauge beside it so the system is always running at least 25 psi below the rated limit. 2- I've added a perforated metal cup/shield that slip fits the plastic globes to contain shards in the event they ever fail. 3- I went to my local water filter store and bought these beautiful screw on screens for the induction tube in the housing which - despite being expensive - really opens the flow capacity through the beads. 4- I epoxied the brass bushings into the housing to eliminate leakage. 5- I also went to Amazon and bought some #40 mesh stainless screen and made a large "washer" that push fits up into the housing head and grabs in place like a Tinnerman nut; this also really opens the outlet compared to the scrub pad idea. Note: there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with the system as you assembled it; I only offer these comments to you and your subscribers as 'upgrades'

Nice Idea. My compressor outputs 175 so I had to build one out of Galvanized pipe. I used a piece of aluminum screen wrapped around the holes I made at the bottom, tie wrapped it in place and epoxied it on the end and the seam of the screen. Works like a champ with ZERO desiccant extracted thru the holes. I did however use this on my smaller compressor I use for air brushing and thank you for the idea. I did however employ my screening to filter the holes. Works great too.

I just built one of these with an old water filter I had for yrs a garage sale find for 3 bucks. It said on the side it was good for 150 psi but I only put 80psi through it. I did proof test it at 150 psi for 24 hrs. I found I could use a carbon water filter cartridge for taste and odor instead of making up a PVC pipe for the inside. The filter has thin layers wrapped many times around the main core. I used a razor knife on the outer edges and unwrapped 60% of the layers then wrapped the top 8.5" with a thick layer of electrical tape but left the bottom 1.5 inches uncovered, this forces the air down through the beads then it goes through the 1.5" then up and out of the filter. I plumbed it the regular way to air enters the top of the beads then filters down then through the charcoal filter. So my beads start to discolor at the top. The water filter also filters the air and keeps any beads from getting into the air system. These filters are cheap so you don't have to bother with the PVC pipe, I was going to until I found that water filter cartridge and figured I would try that, it worked perfect now my sand blaster and plasma cutter are happy with dry air.

I considered using the factory filter cartridge, but they take up so much space and would reduce the amount of silica beads. I didn't consider stripping one down to the core. But the PVC is cheap and about as small a diameter as you could get to work.

I like your solution. I went parallel, but instead of your cannister, I went with a 4.5" x 20" " Whole House " housing I got at Home Depot. Additionally, I discovered a re-fillable cartridge, Hydronix EC-4520W White Empty Water Filter Cartridge Durable Construction for Pre Post, Fits Standard Housings 4.5" x 20" at Amazon for $20.00, which I intend to fill with bulk silica gel beads. Now, I like your PVC solution a bit better as it directs the airflow all the way to the bottom of the column, and it has no other route than to completely pass through the entire charge of desiccant media. One question: Is the silica gel the best? There are others. And Grainger has it in bulk for cheap. Thanks! Mark

If the holes you drilled in the bottom of the coupling are 1/16" in diameter you would need 31 of them to equal the same area as a 3/8" diameter pipe fitting
@TheModelmaker123
@TheModelmaker123 11 ай бұрын
Each time a stream of air or water changes direction , expands or contracts there is some head loss dependent on the flow velocity-squared. In this case the change of air flow is from the 3/8 inch pipe to many small holes, each having a inlet and exit loss factor, but the velocity is the critical factor. The more holes the better as velocity would drop significantly. I think that if he had fabricated a 1" tall x 3/4 in diameter stainless steel screen at the bottom of the PVC pipe instead of the PVC coupler with holes it would have been better, but if you have pressure to spare, you aren't concerned about a little pressure loss.

How did this work out? I'm looking for a water separator/drier for an HVLP paint gun. For probably 15-45 minutes of compressor run time (@5hp, 9cfm/40psi, 7cfm/90psi). Which seems well below your mentioned weeks/months between servicing it. (I'd be happy if I could get 1-2 days of painting between drying the desiccant; I paint very infrequently) Any feeling on it it'd be good enough for painting? I'm not sure if desiccant absorbs quickly enough to dry constant flowing air? But this is really appealing.

The problem with compressed gas is that it expands explosively when suddenly released. Water filters are designed for water under pressure. If they fail it is not a problem because the water is not compressed and the pressure is relieved instantly. Your life and health are precious. Rebuild this with a real pressure vessel.
@TheFossilFiend
@TheFossilFiend 9 ай бұрын
you're half right. Gases compress but they DO NOT "violently" expand. Thats the nature of the vessel. Youre assuming that a vessel created to with 125psi as a constant (plus engineering safety percentage) is not capable of handling 80psi as an occasional pressure. PLease do not build this desiccant filter. I even state that in the beginning of the video. Informational purposes only.

That’s a great idea; very resourceful and inventive. I wondered why you didn’t just use a cylinder of aluminium mesh at the bottom? Because of turbulence I suspect your small holes may well create a restriction, even if their combined area is greater than 3/8”. Also, at the top, it looked as though the 3/4” pipe might well fit over the lid duct without a fitting. Either that or perhaps the fitting could do with bushing. Finally, I found myself unable to spend 22 minutes watching this without skipping forward. I found the pace to be too slow for me, excruciatingly so at times. As an exercise, why not try editing that down to a six minute video and see what you end up with? Assembly sections after explaining, if included, are often better played at a faster speed. Feedback is well intentioned. Nice job. 👍

Maybe I missed it in the video but why did you run the air backwards through the water filter? You ran the air in through the “out” port so it runs down through the center pipe and out through the large opening. Running it the other way would make the steel scrubber pad unnecessary. No doubt that your system work as designed. I just haven’t been able to come up with a reason for the reverse orientation on the water filter.

Its a good question, that I probably didnt explain in the video. Basically its a refill indicator! It will work effectively if run the normal routing (top to bottom) but you won't get the indication line of how much good silica is remaining. Bottom to top, the air must slowly rise through and dry, turning the silica color by the color indicator. If you run top to bottom, the moisture is constantly going down so it will be a constant change over all of it.
