Airline filter setup

[kool55]

Anybody here using TP TOOLS combination water- regulator- coalescing fiter. Part#3411-06 for $200.00 Looks like a good setup. About done running my copper loop, and about ready for a filter. Thanks

OK,I guess not.Howbout a whole system coalescing filter-regulator at the compressor? Any brand.

I have a DryAire Dessicant Air Filter System - 6760, made by Sharpe. I've used it for two years. It has performed as advertised. I've used the filter air to paint with zero moisture going thru. I have a small shop so I run all my air thru all three stages. I renewed the dessicant material by warming it in the oven 2 or 3 times.

I have a coalescing filter directly off my port on the compressor, followed by the regulator. The line then goes into my dryer before heading out to the lines along the walls. Here's a picture:

Thanks for showing me your filters, guys. ron in sc, I got on Sharpes web site and checked out that filter model#705fc-6760. Looks good. I will check price and availability tomorrow, riskyvt, it looks like you are using a dryer from Eaton compressor,but whose filter and regulator are they? I put a 10hp, dryer in my shop at work last year before I retired. Worked great , but I did not like the dryer running constantly [electrical usage].

My compressor & dryer are from Eaton. Local Grainger store supplied the filter, regulator & gauge. The filter is a Wilkerson (part #6D811), the regulator is a SpeedAire (part # 4ZM09) and the gauge is a Grainger (part #5WZ41). I used black iron pipe ******* to connect in series to the outlet valve on the compressor, flex hose to the dryer as seen in the picture above.
