What are some advantages to using the Dry Air Pac over other air supplies?
The Dry Air Pac is the ONLY FM APPROVED package designed to provide the sprinkler system with moisture free air to a -40° F dewpoint. Its major components are integrally mounted on an air receiver to save floor space and are pre-piped and pre-wired for easy installation. This package eliminates the requirement to pull air directly from the freezer. When pulling the cold air directly from the freezer condensation begins to form in the intake piping which results in ice plug formation. Another drawback from using the cold air is that it prevents the lubricant from circulating properly which decreases both the performance and the life of the compressor.
