Description
The Sharpe 15 HP 50 CFM Refrigerated Air Dryer (6890) is an essential addition to any professional workshop or industrial facility that relies on compressed air. Designed to work with air compressors up to 15 horsepower, this unit provides a flow capacity of 50 CFM, ensuring a consistent supply of clean, dry air. Its primary function is to remove moisture, oil, and other contaminants from the air stream, which are common causes of damage to pneumatic tools and poor quality finishes on painted surfaces. By using a highly efficient refrigeration system, the 6890 cools the air, causing water vapor to condense into a liquid that is then filtered and automatically drained away. This process safeguards your equipment, improves the quality of your work, and ensures a more productive and reliable air system.
KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Efficient Contaminant Removal: The unit effectively separates water, oil, and particulates from compressed air, preventing rust in tools and ensuring a clean application for painting and finishing.
- High-Capacity Performance: With a 50 CFM flow rate, it is perfectly matched for 5 to 15 HP compressors, making it a versatile solution for a range of workshop sizes.
- Protects Equipment and Finishes: By providing clean, dry air, it extends the lifespan of pneumatic tools and cylinders while eliminating the risk of defects like "fish eyes" and blistering in paint jobs.
- Automatic Condensate Drain: The integrated, air-operated drain system automatically purges collected moisture and oil without air loss, reducing the need for manual maintenance and ensuring consistent performance.
- Compact and Easy to Install: Its single, compact design saves valuable floor space and simplifies installation, integrating seamlessly into your existing air system.

HOW TO USE:
- Placement and Connection: Select a level, well-ventilated area for the dryer. Use appropriate plumbing to connect the air compressor's discharge line to the dryer's inlet port. Connect the dryer's outlet port to your shop's main air line. Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free.
- Electrical Connection: Plug the unit into a compatible 115V power outlet. It's recommended to use a dedicated circuit. The refrigeration system should be allowed to run continuously and not be wired to cycle on and off with the compressor.
- Operation: Turn on the single on/off switch. The unit will begin to cool the air passing through it. You will see the fault light if there is a problem. The automatic drain will activate periodically to expel any collected water and oil.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the unit for any leaks or unusual sounds. Ensure the automatic drain is functioning correctly. No other specific user maintenance is required.
