An important part of the testing procedure in the Gas Transport Department of the Taylor-Wharton Company is the testing of the assembled cylinders and manifold by air at 2,400 psi. To assure freedom from contamination, the test air must b e dry. This air is dried by a Lectrodryer*. It extracts all harmful moisture, t o a level where contamination or rust within the
cylinders is not possible (-50° F dewpoint). Perhaps you require similar dryness somewhere in research, production or test processes. Lectrodryers of many types and sizes are available to dry air, or other gases, in large or small volume, to dewpoints as low as - 1 0 0 ° F. Write for literature or engineering information.
