It is recommended that a moisture separator/regulator should be installed in the main distribution line if there is a
possibility of moisture related damage of the surface to be painted. When installing the moisture separator/regulator,
it should be placed as close to the tool as possible. Liquid water occurs naturally in air lines as a result of compression.
Moisture exiting near the compressor is warm and still in a vapor state which allows it to pass through the moisture
separator. The vapor must travel a minimum of 5 to 10 feet to cool down to a liquid to be removed by the moisture
separator.
