What Are Automatic Drain Valves? Importance & Types with Compressed Air Dryers
Wherever there is compressed air, there is moisture. Ambient air naturally contains water vapor, and when it’s drawn into a compressor and pressurized, that vapor becomes highly concentrated. As the hot compressed air cools, the vapor condenses into liquid water, leading to corrosion, contamination, and equipment failure if not properly…
Simple Advice & Troubleshooting on Desiccant Dryer Maintenance
This blog post was written by Charles Eskrigge—sales manager at Air & Vacuum Process, Inc – AVP – in Texas. Just like neglecting routine car maintenance can lead to costly repairs, overlooking preventive maintenance on regenerative desiccant compressed air dryers can cause significant issues, ranging from equipment damage to costly…
What is Pipeline Drying? Pipeline Dew Point Drying with Compressed Air
Pipeline drying is a critical process in the construction and maintenance of pipeline infrastructure. This process ensures that newly constructed pipelines are free of moisture, which is essential for preventing corrosion, contamination, and other issues that could compromise the integrity and functionality of the pipeline. Here are a few examples:…
Compressed Air Dryer Troubleshooting Guide for Air Dryer Dew Point Problems
I’m asked quite often to troubleshoot different types of compressed air dryers when they’re not working. It’s not just Van Air Systems dryers—I get calls on every make and model imaginable, from Atlas Copco, Parker, and Schmidt; from regenerative to desiccant dryers.

What is a Compressed Air Dryer?
Definition A compressed air dryer is a device for removing water vapor from an air system. That is, an air dryer’s main function is not removing liquid water, which is the role of a compressed air moisture separator and coalescing filter. Compressed Air Dryer vs. Moisture Separators Many owners of…
Why 4UF Deliquescent Desiccant should not be used in place of 10BF Desiccant.
With the summer ending and cooler months upon us, it’s that time those that use our 10BF for the dehydration of Natural Gas may think to start refilling their deliquescent dryers with desiccant. 10BF is the most effective deliquescent desiccant from Van Air Systems. Formulated primarily for the dehydration of…
