This dryer has been designed, manufactured, and tested to separate humidity normally contained in
compressed air only. Any other unauthorized use will be considered improper. The manufacturer will
void the warranty and not be held responsible for any problem arising from improper use. The correct
use requires adherence to installation conditions specified in this manual.
RECEIVING EQUIPMENT
Immediately upon receipt of equipment, remove all crating and packaging around equipment. Examine
machinery for any damages either external or internal that may have occurred in transit.
If there is any physical damage note it on the bill of lading during delivery. If damage is detected after
the equipment delivery; contact the local terminal to report all damages and file a claim immediately with
the transportation company. The carrier is legally responsible for any damages, since the unit is shipped
F.O.B.
This dryer is supplied tested and assembled however some components on larger units have been
removed and attached to the skid independently, to avoid any damage during shipping. On models
GPS-500 and larger the desiccant material is shipped on a separate skid from the dryer for installation

DESICCANT LOADING PROCEDURES
The only operation left to the user is the connection to the plant in compliance with the instructions given
in the following chapters.
INSTALLATION LOCATION
Particular care is required in selecting the installation site, as an unsuitable location could
jeopardize the proper operation of the dryer. This unit is not suitable to be used in an
explosive atmosphere, or where the risk of fire could be present.
The unit should be installed in an area that is clean and dry, allowing sufficient space on all sides for
routine maintenance and service. It should be located on a level floor or shelf free from vibrations and
sufficient to support the total weight of the machinery. Although the dryer package is a freestanding
unit, it may be secured by bolting the base to the floor but is not required. This standard dryer is
designed for indoor installation. Contact distributor if installing unit outdoors.
Installations at altitudes above 2500 feet (762 meters) may require adjustments to standard operating
conditions. The unit has been factory adjusted to operate at or near sea level. If installation is above
this altitude, contact your local distributor for corrected purge settings.
INLET CONDITIONS
A healthy, long-term, and trouble free compressed air supply design should be approached as a
complete system, not individual components. The air compressor; Intake location is vital to system
health; it should supply clean fresh air that is free from possible contaminant (e.g. ammonia, chlorine or
methane). Any contaminant entering the compressor intake will be concentrated by a factor of 8 due to
the compression process in a typical compressed air system.
A properly sized and maintained compressed air aftercooler is vital to maintaining an acceptable system
temperature range. GPS Series desiccant air dryers are designed to operate at rated flow with a
maximum inlet temperature of 100°F (37.7°C). Units can be oversized to accommodate higher inlet
temperatures up to 120°F (48.8°C). Inlet temperatures above 120°F (48.8°C) require custom designed
dryer equipment. In most cases temperatures can be kept below maximum operating by correctly
sizing or servicing the compressor aftercooler.
As dryer inlet temperatures rise above the design 100°F (37.7°C), the moisture holding capacity of
the air rises dramatically. This table represents the additional moisture load at elevated temperatures.
