Use a Vent Drier to prevent condensation or absorption of water vapor by a mate- rial in a storage tank. All Vent Driers have a sight glass window with Indicating desiccant to tell you when the drier is exhausted. Applications • Guards sensitive materials against moisture • Protects tanks, pumps and pipelines from corrosion by condensed water vapor • Prevents biological growth by keeping out water • Prevents contamination of valuable liquids by corrosive sludge • Dries air to -100° F dew point or 2 ppm by weight Storage Tank Vent Driers Visual Drier Status Indicator Active Exhausted Specifications NEE # Construction Gasket Material Maximum Pump Out Rate Design Pump Out Rate Water Capacity DU-CAL DRIER- RITE (4 mesh) Connections Max.

The design flow rate is 120 CFM with maximum pump out rate (no more than 2 minutes) of 240 CFM or 1800 GPM. It removes 60 pounds of water and has a 4” NPT connection and maximum working pressure of 1 psi.

When the material in a storage vessel is removed, the moisture laden air replacing the material is completely dried by the desiccant column in the vent line. Breathing through the vent line occurs daily from changes in atmospheric pressure and temperature. These dryer units will prevent contamination from this source. These driers will protect storage vessels up to 400,000 gal- lons. The drying units will produce dry air (-100° F dew point) for flow rates up to 1200 gallons per minute (160 cfm). The moisture indicator elimi- nates guesswork; it tells you when the desiccant is exhausted. The glass window has a few ounces of indicat- ing desiccant behind it. The Indicating desiccant turns from blue to pink when the drier is exhausted. The drier contains the highly ef- ficient Du-Cal desiccant. Storage Tank Vent Driers are efficient and economical to operate.
