The service life (shelf life) of activated alumina desiccant varies from 2 to 6 years according to the temperature of the intake air. It can be judged whether a desiccant is needed according to the filter behind the dryer. If the filter is drained, it needs to be replaced with activated alumina desiccant immediately, which can also be judged according to the form of the desiccant and the actual situation of the gas end.

The service life (shelf life) of activated alumina desiccant varies from 2 to 6 years according to the temperature of the intake air. It can be judged whether a desiccant is needed according to the filter behind the dryer. If the filter is drained, it needs to be replaced with activated alumina desiccant immediately, which can also be judged according to the form of the desiccant and the actual situation of the gas end.

You should know the danger of using desiccant for an extended period of time. The activated alumina desiccant loses its activity, cannot drain the water, and the water content of the compressed air exceeds the standard. It affects the normal operation of gas equipment and the production quality of products, and the activated alumina desiccant fails and the active powder falls off.

Activated alumina desiccant has a strong affinity for water, and has the characteristics of no softening, no swelling, no pulverization when soaked in water in the use medium.

When purchasing, you can consult the shelf life of the product of the merchant. Since the production process of each manufacturer is different, the service life of the desiccant is different.
