Sharpe 10 HP 35 CFM Refrigerated Air Dryer (6885)

The Sharpe 10 HP 35 CFM Refrigerated Air Dryer (6885) is an essential component for any professional compressed air system. It is specifically engineered to remove moisture, water, and oil vapor that can cause significant damage to pneumatic tools and lead to poor quality in critical finishing applications like painting. This compact and efficient unit works by cooling compressed air, causing water vapor to condense and be automatically discharged from the system. Its integrated design and high-efficiency heat exchangers make it a powerful and reliable solution for delivering the clean, dry air necessary for superior results.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• High-Performance Moisture Removal: This refrigerated air dryer is designed to efficiently remove harmful moisture, water, and oil from your compressed air line. This prevents rust, corrosion, and damage to pneumatic tools, while also eliminating defects like fisheyes and craters in paint finishes.
• Integrated Two-Stage Separation: The unit features a built-in two-stage separator/filter that works in conjunction with high-efficiency heat exchangers. This combined system ensures maximum contaminant removal, even with high-temperature air coming directly from the compressor.
• Automatic Condensate Drain: A reliable, air-operated condensate drain automatically expels collected water and oil from the system. This feature prevents manual drainage and ensures continuous, hands-free operation without any loss of compressed air.
• Simple and Convenient Operation: The Sharpe 6885 is a compact, all-in-one package that simplifies installation. It connects easily to your existing air system and requires minimal maintenance, with the primary task being to keep the external filter clean.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Model Number: 6885
• Recommended Air Compressor Size: 10 HP
• Flow Capacity: 35 CFM
• Maximum Operating Pressure: 175 psi (12 bar)
• Maximum Inlet Temperature: 180°F (82°C)
• Power Requirements: 115V / 1 Phase / 60 Hz
• Dimensions (H x W x D): 28" x 10" x 13"

HOW TO USE:

• Placement: Select a well-ventilated area near your air compressor. Ensure the unit is placed on a stable, level surface.
• Connection: Connect the air inlet of the dryer to the outlet of your air compressor using appropriate air hoses or pipes.
• Power: Plug the unit into a standard 115V electrical outlet. The dryer will begin to operate.
• Operation: As compressed air passes through the dryer, it will be cooled, causing moisture and oil vapor to condense into a liquid. The automatic drain will then expel this liquid.
• Maintenance: Periodically check and clean the external filter to ensure optimal airflow and performance. The automatic drain handles condensate removal, so no manual draining is required.

BENEFITS OF USING SHARPE 10 HP 35 CFM REFRIGERATED AIR DRYER (6885):

• Prevents Tool Damage: By removing moisture, the dryer protects the internal components of your pneumatic tools from rust and corrosion, significantly extending their operational life.
• Improves Finish Quality: In painting and finishing applications, a dry air supply prevents surface blemishes like fisheyes and craters, ensuring a smooth, professional-grade finish.
• Energy Efficient: The unit's design and automatic drain system prevent air loss, contributing to a more efficient and cost-effective operation of your compressed air system.
• Reduces Maintenance: By filtering contaminants and automatically draining water, this unit reduces the need for frequent manual maintenance of your air system components.
• Increases Productivity: A consistent supply of clean, dry air ensures your tools operate at peak performance, reducing downtime and improving overall productivity.
