DE-5A Silica Gel Desiccant Equivalent 55 Pound Bag

Our aftermarket DE-5A silica gel desiccant 55 pound bag is the same 2-5mm white beaded silica gel as the Ingersoll Rand, PPC, and other brands, but with a better price. This Type R silica gel is guaranteed to meet or exceed the quality of the OEM DE-5A silica gel.

As silica gel fractures in the presence of liquid water, iIt must be protected by a 10% to 15% (by weight) layer of activated alumina as a water buffer on the inlet side of the desiccant bed. Dew points to -40F and lower may be achieved with silica gel depending on the compressed air dryer design and operating conditions.

• Compressor Shop DE-5A Silica Gel Desiccant 
• Meets or Exceeds the "OEM" desiccant quality and performance.

1. High moisture retention capacity under dynamic conditions
   Used in some heated type regenerative dryers. Under dynamic conditions, a higher design capacity rating and lower regeneration temperature can be used.
2. Uniform bead shape
   This shape provides lower pressure drop and less abrasion than granular types. Smooth beads also pack uniformly to minimize channeling.
