How It Works
As wet, contaminated air is drawn through the unit, multiple 3-micron polyester filter elements remove solid particulates while the color-indicating silica gel extracts moisture. The diaphragm allows for expansion/contraction of the air within the casing as a result of temperature variations during steady-state operations.
When air is expelled from the container, the top foam pad prevents oil mist from contacting silica gel or entering the atmosphere.
