L. COMPRESSED AIR REQUIREMENTS
The model CG145-55 dryer requires an external supply of compressed air of 2.5 cfm at 80 PSI (0.07 cmm at 5.51
bars). For steam models, compressed air is necessary for the air operated steam damper. On both the steam
model as well as the gas model, compressed air is necessary/required for blower air jet operation...to clean lint
from the impellor/fan (squirrel cage).

2. Air Regulation
a. No air regulation or filtration is provided with the dryer. External regulation/filtration of 80 PSI (5.51
bars) must be provided. It is suggested that a filter/regulator/gauge (F/R/G) arrangement be added to
the compressed air line just before the dryer connection. This is necessary to insure that correct and
clean air pressure is achieved.
3. Air Connection
a. Air connection to this system is an 1/8-inch F.P.T. as per the illustration below.
