Desiccants

With a strong affinity for water vapor - desiccants form a surface bond between the two molecules. A few types of desiccants have capacities to attract additional substances such as Carbon Dioxide but will later give up these in favor or water vapor in the fashion that floats on water. All Safe Air Systems desiccants are fashioned of uniform particle shapes so as to induce good bed structure as well as turbulent flow-through.

Part Number Size Net Wt. Composition Typical Application
CF-242212-SR Quart 2 lb. 1/8" to 1/4" Spheres Industrial Air / Gas Dehydrating
CF-242215-SR Gallon 8 lb.
CF-24225-SR 2.5 Gallon 20 lb.
CF-242255-SR 55 Gallon Drum 300 lb.

Activated Alumina is a mid power media best at sponging up water, condensable and vapors. Activated Alumina is good in applications operating at lower pressures and at temperatures below 100 F. It is highly durable and resistant to liquid cracking and so it is preferred for use as a water buffer.

Warning: Activated Alumina may cause irritation to eyes and uppers respiratory tract due to dust exposure.

Part Number Size Net Wt. Composition Typical Application
CF-245012-SR Quart 1.25 lb. 1/16" to 1/8" Spheres First drying bed in high velocity & high volume gas processing
CF-245015-SR Gallon 5.5 lb.
CF-245025-SR 2.5 Gallon 13.5 lb.

Desiccant Blend designed as an economy product, has carefully blended Molecular Sieves with Silica Gel desiccant. This result is a media that is excellent at adsorbing water condensable, droplets and water vapors at an economical cost. Characteristically tolerant of liquid water, temperature variables and some types of surface poisoning. Use at temperatures below 100 F.

Warning: Some ingredients in Desiccant Blend are harmful and anyone handling this material must take proper measures to protect respirator systems and avoid immediate contact with skin, eyes and mouth.

CF-244250-SR 10 Gallon Sack 55 lb.
CD-244255-SR 55 Gallon Drum 300 lb.

Vaporshell Molecular Sieves 13x, the highest grade of desiccant. It is as much as 4 times more powerful than other desiccants, especially at elevates (up to 120 F) temperatures. Vaporshell 13x can adsorb up to 23% of its own weight and reach down to -102 F dewpoint. With added capacities for hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide and other organics, Vaporshell 13x is the premium choice in desiccants.

Warning: Some ingredients in Vaporshell Molecular are harmful and anyone handling this material must take proper measures to protect respirator systems and avoid immediate contact with skin, eyes and mouth.
