WHEN TO REPLACE CARTRIDGE:
Crystals in cartridge as seen through sight window of
housing will change from blue to pink when silica gel in cartridge
is saturated with moisture. Install fresh cartridge when crystals
turn to pink.
INSTALLING ID15/SW DRYER:
Locate dryer as close as possible to equipment to be
protected.
Where condensed moisture is present in the air line, install a
separator with drain valve upstream of dryer.
Install inlet and outlet valves for isolating dryer during
cartridge change.
Check markings on head of vessel; then connect inlet piping
to side marked "A" and outlet to side marked "B".
If there are any sudden air surges downstream of dryer,
install a flow control device after the dryer.
Install SG-23 cartridge as outlined below.

Push new cartridge onto boss of dryer head.
Reinstall bowl and clamp. Make sure that the bowl is tight
against the head and the o-ring is correctly seated in the
groove.
Close the ball valve and slowly repressurize the vessel. If
any leaks occur, depressurize vessel completely and correct
