SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
Model HC
SECTION 1:
INSTALLATION & START-UP
1.0 Installation
Connect the compressor interlock relay to compressor load condition, if

dryer load is less than 50%. Refer to the electrical drawing in Section 8.
This dryer is designed to be used only with a non-lubricated compressor.

Use with a lubricated compressor will void all warranties and may cause
severe damage.
Upon delivery of the dryer, it must be checked for damage that may have
occurred during transport. If there is any evidence of damage due to
shipping, immediately enter a claim with the carrier. Shipping damage is
not covered by warranty.
Use the appropriate, load-rated lifting equipment and observe safe lifting
procedures during all operations of installation. The equipment should be
unloaded as close as possible to the installation site to minimize any
chances of equipment damage.
If the dryer is to be stored for a prolonged period of time, it should be

stored in a dry place, preferably indoors, protected from the elements
including freezing or extremely warm temperatures. Keep all openings
closed until connections are made.
1.0.1 Dryer Location and Mounting Specifications
1.0.1.1 The Sahara-Pak HC dryer is designed for indoor operation with

ambient temperatures between 35F - 100F. The standard
electrical components are designed specifically for NEMA 4
(refer to the Specifications in Section 5). Should it be desirable
to locate the dryer outdoors, it would be necessary to protect
the dryer from rain by placing a roof over the dryer and to
protect cooling water and separator drain lines from freeze-up
by heat tape or other suitable means.
1.0.1.2 Locate the dryer as close to the air compressor as possible to

conserve "Heat-of-Compression" energy. Also, since the piping
from compressor to dryer requires insulation, a short run of
piping will simplify installation. Be sure that the intended
location allows for adequate clearance around the dryer to
facilitate servicing.

SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
Model HC
1.0.1 Dryer Location and Mounting Specifications (continued)
1.0.1.3 Locate the dryer in the coolest possible location, providing

adequate space around the dryer for servicing all components.
An overhead clearance of not less than three feet above each
tower is required for loading of the desiccant. Access
clearance of three feet in front of the control panel should be
provided. For mounting dimensions, refer to the general
assembly drawing in Section 8.
1.0.1.4 Remove all protective shipping crates, flange covers, etc.
1.0.1.5 Utilizing the mounting holes provided on the skid, anchor the
HC dryer to a solid, level foundation designed to support the
dryer. Should vibrations occur on the installation location, the
dryer is to be placed onto vibration dampeners.
1.0.1.6 Because of vibration during shipping and installation, some

lines, fittings, bolts, and connections may have loosened;
therefore, inspect all and tighten if required.
1.0.1.7 Locate and install any items that may have shipped loose from
the dryer, such as exhaust mufflers or auxiliary filters.
1.0.1.8 If desiccant has been shipped separate and must be installed,

reference Section 2 for desiccant installation instructions and
Section 7 for the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). Wear
protective goggles and mask when working with desiccant.
1.0.1.9 Connect the dryer to a correctly sized power supply. The

standard HC dryer requires a 115V, 60 cycle connection. For
voltage and current requirements, refer to the Specifications in
Section 5.
1.0.1.10 Ground the frame of the dryer in accordance with the end
user’s local electrical codes.
1.0.1.11 Disconnect switch is not provided with the dryer and must be
supplied by the end user with proper overload protection
according to local electrical codes.

1.0.1 Dryer Location and Mounting Specifications (continued)
1.0.1.12 For electrical connections, refer to the electrical drawing in

Section 8. Be sure to look for any auxiliary connections, such
as remote alarm contacts, compressor interlock relay (if
needed), or analog (4-20mA) signals.
1.0.1.13 Ensure that the inlet and outlet connections to and from the
dryer are made using the correct rated fittings and piping to
meet the design conditions. For connection details, refer to the
flow schematic in Section 8.
1.0.1.14 Insulate the pipe between the compressor and dryer to

minimize heat loss.
1.0.1.15 Do not hydrostatically test the pressure vessels. All HC dryer

pressure vessels are hydrostatically tested at 1.3x the design
pressure, per ASME code, after fabrication and before
assembly of the dryer.
1.0.1.16 It is recommended that the common alarm relay, located in the

dryer control panel, be connected to the control room or
operator station, so that an immediate response to the dryer
alarm may be given when required.
1.0.1.17 If the equipment is installed in a high traffic area, protective

barriers may be required to prevent possible damage of
equipment and to prevent contact with hot surfaces.
1.0.2 Preventative Maintenance Prior to Start-up
1.0.2.1 All air dryers are tested at the factory for leak-tight joints and
tightness of bolts; however, during shipment, some bolts may
vibrate loose. We have no control over the handling our
compressed air systems receive after leaving our factory. To
prevent costly problems at start-up and operation, all bolts
should be checked for tightness prior to system pressurization.
This will assure gasket life as well as prevent possible gasket
blowout. Gasket joints should be bubble tested after four or
five complete cycles of the dryer, to ensure gaskets are
sealed. Any loose joints will need to be re-tightened and re-
tested for leaks. Following is a comprehensive procedure for
tightening all pressurized gasketed joints. If the dryer includes
manual butterfly valves, valves must be totally closed before
re-torquing bolts.

1.0.2 Preventative Maintenance Prior to Start-up (continued)
1.0.2.2 TIGHTEN BOLTS IN SEQUENTIAL ORDER (i.e. 0 - 180,

90 - 270, 45 - 225, and 135 - 315) until final torque is
reached.
1.0.2.3 Use ROTATIONAL TIGHTENING until all bolts are stable at

final torque level. (Two complete times around is usually
required.)
NOTE: We regret any inconvenience this may cause; however, we feel this
preventative procedure will save time and money in the long run.
Failure to follow this procedure may result in premature gasket
failure which is not covered by warranty.

1.0.3 Afterfilter
1.0.3.1 Use of a prefilter is not necessary, or recommended, with a

heat-of-compression Model HC dryer. It is extremely important,
however, that a afterfilter be provided in the dryer installation.
The afterfilter eliminates the possibility of desiccant dust
carryover into the instrument air system.
1.0.3.2 If the dryer is shipped with the afterfilter loose or with the
afterfilter skid-mounted on a separate steel frame, below are
the installation instructions for these models.
1.0.3.2.1 Afterfilter Installation
 Mount afterfilter in such a way as to allow

clearance for the element installation and
removal.
 The filter must be piped, so that the correct flow

direction indicated on the filter is followed.
 Ensure that all piping and valves are equivalent

or larger in size to the dryer inlet connection.
1.0.3.2.2 Afterfilter Skid-Mounted with 3-Valve Bypass

Installation
 Filter skid should be located as close to dryer as

possible. Use the skid bolt holes to secure the
assembly.
 Ensure that the skid is located such that the 3-

valve bypass will bypass the filter when in use.
 Check the flow direction of each filter to ensure

the afterfilter is connected to the outlet pipe of
the dryer.
 Connect the filter skid piping and dryer skid

piping using materials and fabrication procedures
that are suitable for compressed air pressure
piping.

1.0.4 Air Supply
1.0.4.1 The air supply should be between 250F - 400F, and 100
PSIG - 125 PSIG compressed air.
1.0.4.2 In piping the air to the dryer, use a pipe size equal to or larger
than the dryer line size, keep the length of piping as short as
possible, and insulate the piping.
1.0.4.3 The compressed air generated by a reciprocating compressor

contains some pulsation; the amplitude and frequency being
related to the number of stages, speed, etc. Normally, the
pulsation associated with a multi-stage compressor will not
affect the operation of the dryer; however, it is recommended
that a PULSATION DAMPENER be installed between a
reciprocating compressor and the dryer to prevent excessive
desiccant breakup and component fatigue. A pulsation
dampener should be used in any installation where the
pulsation seems excessive. As with the air supply piping, the
pulsation dampener, if installed, should be insulated.
1.0.4.4 If the compressed air system cannot be shut down during

dryer maintenance periods, a six-valve block and bypass
valving arrangement should be installed to allow for isolating
and depressurizing the dryer, while still maintaining
compressed air delivery. Note that the bypassed air will not be
dried. The cooler and separator should still be utilized. The
scheduled maintenance periods occur at intervals of 2000
hours running time and normally require only a couple of hours
to complete.
1.0.5 Air Discharge Piping
1.0.5.1 If an air receiver is required in the compressed air system for

air storage, it should be installed downstream of the dryer.
Here it will store dry air (and require no draining). This will
eliminate the possibility of overloading the dryer with stored air
in wet receivers.
Reference 219 Rev 2

Page 11 of 46 06/20/2013
SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
Model HC
1.0.6 Drain Piping
1.0.6.1 All the moisture removed from the compressed air is drained
away through the drain valves under the separator. Both
valves should be connected to a suitable drain through drain
piping of sufficient size for its length, to avoid pressure drop or
blockage due to contaminants on the drain water. It is
recommended that at some convenient point in the drain
piping, the water flow should be visible, so that proper drain
operation can be visually verified.
1.0.7 Cooling Water
1.0.7.1 An adequate supply of clean water must be available to the
dryer INTERCOOLER. The use of dirty or scale forming water
should be avoided. DIRTY water reduces cooling efficiency
and will require regular "back flushing" to maintain
performance.
1.0.7.2 The standard Sahara-Pak HC dryer is designed to use
approximately 3.77 GPM per 100 SCFM of 85F cooling water.
The air exiting the intercooler should be 95F or less as
indicated by the temperature screen on the panel view. This
temperature is located under the heading of cooler outlet
temperature. The cooling water inlet and outlet pipe size is
listed in the specifications at the front of this manual. The inlet
and outlet are clearly marked, but in case the unit has been
repainted or the markings are otherwise unreadable, the
cooling water flow is COUNTER-CURRENT to the air flow.
That is, the cooling water inlet is at the SEPARATOR end of
the cooler.
1.0.7.3 The performance of the Sahara-Pak HC dryer is directly
related to the cooling water temperature; thus, the cooling
water should be as cold as possible. High cooling
temperatures will adversely affect the outlet dew point.
1.0.7.4 The cooling water pressure drop is approximately 2 PSID
through the cooler at the above stated water flow rate, so the
cooling water supply pressure and supply and return piping
should be sized accordingly.
1.0.7.5 Do not install a thermostatically controlled water regulating
valve on the dryer and operate the cooling water in series, as
this would seriously reduce the cooling water supply to the
compressor.

1.1 Start-up
Prior to start-up:
It is recommended that the operational program of the dryer and the

wiring schematic be studied before operating the dryer.
Desiccant level must be checked. Wear protective goggles and mask

when working with desiccant. Reference Section 2 for desiccant
instructions and Section 7 for the MSDS.
All pipes and wire connections must be tightened.
Pipes must be checked for presence of scale, abraded material from the
threading, or other similar impurities.
All shut-off valves on the dryer, afterfilter, and on the bypass line should
be closed.
The ambient temperature must not be less than 33F.
1.1.1 Safety Precautions
As with any piece of industrial machinery, common sense safety

precautions should be observed.
1.1.1.1 Portions of the dryer and related piping will reach temperatures
which could cause serious burns, if not insulated or shielded.
Personnel working on or near the dryer should be cautioned to
this particular danger.
1.1.1.2 Pull the main disconnect switch before attempting to work or

perform maintenance on the dryer.
1.1.1.3 Do not attempt to remove any dryer parts while the dryer is
pressurized. First, isolate the dryer (if bypass valving has been
installed) or shut off the compressor. Then, slowly
depressurize the dryer through the afterfilter bleed or the
automatic drain bleed (under separator).
1.1.1.4 Do not allow tools or other obstructions to interfere with the

shaft of the switching valves. Keep all body parts away from
the switching valve shafts while the dryer is operating; the
actuation is sudden and could cause bodily injury.

1.1.2 Pressurizing Dryer
1.1.2.1 Prior to pressurizing the dryer, verify the following:
 Dryer ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position.
 System outlet block valve is closed.
 Cooling water is turned on to the aftercooler.
1.1.2.2 Slightly open the inlet isolation valve, slowly flowing

compressed air to the system. Opening this valve too quickly
may cause damage to the dryer including the desiccant, tower
screens, and filter elements.
1.1.2.3 When full system operating pressure has been reached, all
connections should be soap bubble tested for leaks. Any leaks
should be repaired and retested, prior to placing the equipment
in service. If some gas other than the process air will be used
for leak testing, consult Henderson Engineering Co., Inc., for
its compatibility with system components before proceeding.
Fully open the inlet isolation valve.
1.1.2.4 When the system is filled with process air, is leak tight, and
start-up is completed, then slowly open the system outlet valve
to pressurize the downstream piping. During the procedure,
ensure that the dryer system pressure does not fall below 95%
of its reading prior to opening the system outlet valve. This will
protect the equipment internal components (i.e. filter elements,
desiccant) from gas velocities above design conditions.
1.1.2.5 When pressurizing is complete, fully open the system outlet

valve to place the equipment in service. Refer to Section 6 for
operator interface instructions.
1.1.2.6 Verify the system inlet pressure and temperature are at the
design operating levels.
1.1.2.7 Please note that excessive flows or rapid change in

pressure may cause damage to the air dryer skid. Every
time there is no line pressure, the dryer must be valved
out and brought up to line pressure slowly.
1.1.2.8 The dryer should be carefully monitored during the first few
hours of operation to check for malfunction.

1.1.2 Pressurizing Dryer (continued)
Protect the dryer from overloads. The dryer can become

overloaded, if:
 inlet flow is too high
 temperature of the air at the discharge of the aftercooler is too

high
 minimum operating pressure is too low
 temperature of the air at the discharge of the compressor is too

low
 check Specifications in Section 5 for proper operating

conditions
1.1.3 Operator Interface
NOTE: Reference Section 6 (Auxiliary Manuals) for the operational

instructions specific to the operator interface purchased.

SECTION 2:
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
2.0 Operation
Never make any changes to the dryer that are not specifically authorized
by Henderson Engineering Co., Inc.
Only use original spare and accessory parts.
Carry out maintenance work only when the dryer is switched off,
depressurized (even though gauges may read 0, there may still be air in
the dryer), and disconnected from the electric power supply.
Multiple power sources may exist in the electrical panel. All possible
power sources must be disconnected before servicing dryer.
2.0.1 General Information
The HC dryer is used for the purpose of drying compressed air and other
gases according to its respective design. As a "standard model" the dryer
is equipped with two desiccant vessels and, depending on certain
conditions, provides pure, dry, and oil-free compressed air or gases.
The HC dryer is built according to the latest technological developments.

Its use can endanger personnel and can lead to considerable damage to
the dryer and other material assets if:
 it is operated by personnel not trained or instructed in its use

 it is improperly used
 it is improperly maintained or serviced
This can result in the loss of all damage claims.
This dryer is designed for neutral media (gas) free of aggressive water,
oil, and solid elements. Henderson Engineering Co., Inc., accepts no
liability for corrosion damage and malfunctions caused by aggressive
media.
Applications other than those mentioned in this manual must be agreed

to by Henderson Engineering Co., Inc., and confirmed in writing.

2.0.1 General Information (continued)
In the interest of further development, Henderson Engineering Co., Inc.,

reserves the right to make changes at any time, which, in keeping with
the essential characteristics of the dryer described here, may be
necessary for increasing efficiency or for reasons relating to safety or to
normal business practice.
2.0.2 Description
The Sahara-Pak HC dryer is a complete system consisting of the

following major components:
2.0.2.1 Drying Vessels (insulation optional)
Two ASME Code stamped vessels containing Activated

Alumina desiccant (refer to the Specifications in Section 5 for
quantity) are firmly mounted on a structural steel base. Each
vessel is provided with stainless steel desiccant retaining
screens at both inlet and outlet. Separate desiccant fill and
drain connections allow for fast and easy desiccant
replacement without disturbing process piping. A safety relief
valve is installed on each vessel.
2.0.2.2 Switching Valves
Main compressed air flow through the Sahara-Pak HC dryer is

controlled by reinforced teflon-seated high performance
butterfly valves (3" and larger). Two inch and smaller are
standard 2-way rack and pinion operated ball valves. This
improved 2-way valve design provides for lower overall system
pressure drop than multi-port valve designs. It also eliminates
undesirable heat transfer between compressed air streams
simultaneously flowing through the same valve internal plug,
rotor, or ball.
The valves are opened and closed by over-sized actuators.

These actuators are driven by well-filtered, cool, dry air
supplied by the control air filter. The coalescing quality filter
element contained therein removes all particulates above 0.3
micron in size; thereby assuring long pneumatic actuator life.
Control air lines need no lubricators, as the pneumatic
actuators have been permanently pre-lubricated.
Speed control valves are provided, to slow the closing of all

tower switching valves to prevent upstream compressor dead-
heading.
Reference 219 Rev 2

Page 18 of 46 06/20/2013
SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
Model HC
2.0.2 Description (continued)
2.0.2.3 Check Valve
The standard Sahara-Pak HC dryer design employs a single

check valve (CV1) which remains open during the offstream
tower cooling step; thereby allowing cooling air to return to the
outlet air flow. This check valve automatically closes during
offstream tower depressurization, final stripping, and
repressurization.
The heating and cooling selector valves (V1 and V2) are
piloted by a dual coil four-way solenoid and two speed control
valves within the control air runs. The speed control valves
assure fast opening of either selector valve and slow closing of
either selector valve. This prevents any possibility of dead-
heading the upstream compressor.
2.0.2.4 Water-Cooled Intercooler, Separator, Dual Drain Trap
The standard cooler used in the Sahara-Pak HC dryer is

constructed of a carbon steel shell, tube sheets, baffles, and
copper tubes. Reference the Specifications in Section 5 for the
cooling water requirement.
The Sahara-Pak HC dryer may also use an existing aftercooler

by simply using our Cooler Accommodation Package. We
supply you with our coalescing separator and traps; you use
your own cooler; saving you the initial expense of the cooler.
The air exiting the dryer intercooler carries with it the entrained
moisture condensed in the cooler. A coalescing-type separator
(no moving parts, no maintenance) separates the liquid water
from the air stream where it drops to the drain section.
Coalescing-type Separator
Reference 219 Rev 2

SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
Model HC
2.0.2.4 Water-Cooled Intercooler, Separator, Dual Drain Trap

(continued)
The Sahara-Pak HC dryer has a truly unique dual automatic

drain system to remove the water from the separator. As the
liquid level from the separator rises, the primary free float drain
opens, discharging the accumulated water.
There is a level switch and 2-way valve assembly attached to

the separator which makes a complete back-up drain system.
Should any part of the primary drain assembly fail to drain the
separator, the back-up system will drain the separator and
sound an intermittent audible alarm (85 dBA) with an alarm
light to alert operating personnel to the fact that the primary
drain needs attention.
The primary trap contains a mechanical/magnetic float. This

simple and inexpensive component is capable of providing
several months of trouble-free service before grit and pipe
scale cause it to malfunction. When this happens, water will
back-up triggering a liquid level switch to activate, sending an
electrical signal to a solenoid valve. The solenoid valve
actuates a large 2-way valve which, when open, drains out the
float chamber. As the float drops, the two-way valve closes.
Additionally, a primary drain failure alarm is activated every
time the second float chamber is forced to operate. The
primary trap may be isolated from the secondary and removed
for cleaning without shutting down the air system.
2.0.2.5 High Efficiency Afterfilter (optional)
After the compressed air leaves the second drying vessel, it

may contain small particles of desiccant dust. This material is
inert, harmless, and presents no health or safety problems;
however, to provide absolute top quality compressed air, a
high efficiency particle removal filter is recommended.

SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
Model HC
2.0.2 Description (continued)
2.0.2.6 Control Group
The complete operation of the Sahara-Pak HC dryer is fully

automatic and pre-programmed to shift drying vessels
continuously before the design water load can be reached
(breakthrough). With the dew point demand system, the dryer
will not switch towers until the drying tower is fully saturated.
The standard control is done with a PLC and operator interface
which operates the pilot air solenoids, which in turn actuate the
switching valves; all without operator attention.
The aforementioned "Primary Drain Failure" intermittent alarm,

optional "Fail-to-Shift" alarm, and optional "High Dewpoint"
alarm would be included in the dryer control group, if
purchased.
2.0.2.7 Instrument Panel
The standard instrument panel assures that operating

personnel are always informed of all phases of the Sahara-Pak
HC dryer operation. Dryer inlet, as well as cooler inlet and
outlet temperatures, are all monitored with temperature

2.0.3 Theory of Operation
2.0.3.1 Heating
Hot air directly from the compressor enters the inlet of the
Sahara-Pak HC and is directed by the inlet 2-way valves into
the regenerating tower. This hot, thirsty air regenerates the
bulk of the water from the desiccant. The air is then directed
into the aftercooler where it is cooled, the coalescing separator
where liquid water is removed through the drain trap system,
then into the drying tower where the air is actually dried to its
final low dew point. The heating cycle lasts 90 minutes.

2.0.3 Theory of Operation (continued)
2.0.3.2 Stripping
At the end of heating, the inlet valves shift position, directing

the hot inlet air directly into the aftercooler, separator, and
drying tower. We now begin stripping. The stripping phase of
regeneration lasts 90 minutes. At the beginning of stripping,
the regenerating tower is depressurized through a muffler.
During stripping, a small adjustable flow of dry air is used to
remove the last little bit of moisture from the regenerating
tower. This allows the Sahara-Pak HC dryer to provide
exceptionally low dew points. If lower dew points are required,
then an optional booster heater may be required. This will
increase the bed temperature allowing for lower dew points.
The heater will cycle increasing the purge air temperature, so
the optional smaller sized heater will suffice.

2.0.3 Theory of Operation (continued)
2.0.3.3 Cooling
At the end of stripping, the regenerating tower is

repressurized. The cooling cycle valve opens (V13) and
cooling begins. During cooling, a portion of the dry outlet air is
directed into the regenerating tower to reduce the temperature
of the bed prior to tower shift. Cooling and stripping combine to
provide extremely low dew points and to eliminate dew point
fluctuations during tower shift.
As this design has been carefully tailored to your specific

application, the dryer operation can be easily understood by
combined reference to the process flow schematic; the
electrical ladder schematic; listing of various options available
and included; and descriptive operational legends.

2.0.4 Pressure Vessel Regulations
Never weld on, or alter, a pressure vessel in any way.
The pressure vessels are designed according to the standard technical

requirements. They fulfill the test of the certifying procedure and carry
the “U” or “UM” ASME Symbol.
2.0.5 Airtightness Test
All HC dryers are subjected to an airtightness test prior to shipment using

compressed air and soap solution. System should be re-tested after
installation to ensure system integrity and joints are sealed.
2.1 Maintenance
2.1.1 Suggested Preventive Maintenance Schedule
The HC dryer requires a minimum of maintenance as most components

are "maintenance-free"; however, a certain amount of "preventive
maintenance" is recommended to assure years of trouble-free, high-
performance service.
Whereas it is recommended that the dryer be observed and inspected as

often as it is practical, the following is a minimum requirement:
2.1.1.1 EVERY 2000 HOURS OR 3 MONTHS
1. Check the inlet air temperature; make adjustments, if

necessary.
2. Check the air temperature at aftercooler outlet; above

100F means:
a. Increase the cooling water flow.
b. Lower the cooling water temperature.
c. Back flush and thoroughly clean the aftercooler, to

restore efficiency.

OPERATIONAL GUIDE
Operator Interface
A. Introduction
A programmable controller with individual input/output modules controls the

dryer’s operation. The operator interface to this controller is the Allen-Bradley
PanelView 800. This should be used as a reference guide to ensure dryer is
cycling. A manual mode is included in the dryer program to allow for fast cycling
to verify the operation of the dryer.
The PanelView 800 uses a touch sensitive screen. All control functions are
performed by touching the appropriate on-screen button or display. Buttons in a
dark blue, green, or yellow color may be pressed to change screens, modify a
setting, or enter a value.
While dryer is in the stripping mode for either tower, the regeneration flow setting
should be checked. The stripping flow valve should be set at 1.5 turns open at
start-up and adjusted as necessary to maintain the specified dew point. The
pressure gauge on the regenerating tower should not exceed 10 psig.
Warning!
Failure to correctly set the stripping flow can lead to improper
regeneration of the desiccant bed, resulting in a dew point
failure when that tower is returned to service.
It is recommended that the dryer instruction manual and the wiring schematic be
studied before operating the dryer.
 Turn ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
 Power On. Indication is provided by the operator interface. When the dryer is
on, the interface is on. After 30 minutes of idle time, the interface enters a
sleep mode; however, in this mode an Allen-Bradley logo is shown slowly
moving around the screen to indicate the unit is active. Touch anywhere on
the screen to exit sleep mode.
 8-hour NEMA cycle; will result in lower dew points. The half cycle time is
indicated on the SETTINGS screen. The cycle length will not change until the
next tower shift.
 Right Tower or Left Tower Online. The tower that is onstream is shown on the
STATUS screen.
NOTE: All screens are reviewed further in the following sections.

SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
II. Mounting the Sample System

For dryer dew point demand control, tubing should be piped as close as possible to dryer
outlet (before any dryer afterfilter, if possible). For very low dew point readings
(-70°F and below), all tubing and fittings should be stainless steel to eliminate possible
water vapor entrapment. Sample cell inlet valve to be fully opened and outlet valve
cracked to atmosphere (2 SCFH minimum). A pigtail is recommended for low dew point
measurements. Illustration 3 shows the recommended installation of a sampling system.
CAUTION! Do not start the process flow through the system until the
transmitter has been properly installed (see the following
section).

III. Installing the Transmitter
Transmitters are usually installed in a sample system to protect the transmitter from any
damaging elements in the process. The transmitter is mounted in a cylindrical container
called the sample cell, which is included as part of the sample system.
Transmitters are mounted into the sample system or process line with ¾ - 16 straight
threads that are sealed with an o-ring.
CAUTION! If the transmitter is to be mounted directly in the process line,

without a sample system, consult Henderson Engineering for
proper installation instructions and precautions.
Illustration 4: Transmitter/Sample Cell Assembly
Reference Illustration 4 and complete these steps to install the transmitter into the sample
cell:
1. Insert the transmitter into the sample cell and thread the transmitter into the sample
cell fitting. Make sure not to cross the threads.
2. Tighten the transmitter securely.
3. Identify the sample cell inlet port as the connection that is perpendicular to the
installed transmitter.
CAUTION! For maximum protection of the aluminum oxide sensor, the

transmitter shield should always be left in place.
Reference 085 815-786-9471 Rev 5

SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
IV. Making Wiring Connections
The transmitter must be wired using the factory-supplied cable which is available in a
variety of lengths.
Note: If cables need lengthened, reference Table 1 to splice an extension onto the
existing cable. Connect positive to positive and negative to negative.
Table 1: Cable Lead Descriptions

Lead Color* Connection Description
Blue (+) 7 to 28 VDC
Brown (-) 7 to 28 VDC
Connect the shield to ground if desired.
*The blue and brown leads also produce a current output equivalent to 4 to 20 mA.
Use the following steps to wire the transmitter to the system.
1. Push the female connector end on the transmitter cable into the mating male
connector on the transmitter module. Make sure the pins are properly aligned. Once
inserted, secure the connectors together by sliding the metal sleeve on the cable over
the connectors and turning it clockwise until it is tight.
2. Using the flying leads at the other end of the transmitter cable, connect the transmitter
to the power supply and data acquisition system (DAS) as shown in Illustration 5.
Reference Table 1 for a description of the leads in the factory-supplied cable.

INSTRUCTION MANUAL
IV. Making Wiring Connections (continued)
3. Trim any unused leads back to the outer cable jacket in order to remove the bare
tinned wire and prevent accidental short circuits.
The SMT is now ready for operation.
V. Installation
When preparing to use the transmitter, it is important to make certain upon removing the
clear plastic cover that the o-ring gasket remains in place at the base of the probe. If the
o-ring gasket is not in place, it will cause a system leak.

SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
VI. Operating the Transmitter
After proper installation, the SMT is very easy to use; simply power the unit up and it's
ready to begin taking measurements. Since the SMT stores moisture calibration data in
non-volatile FLASH memory, the user does not have to enter data manually or worry
about losing data during a power loss.
If a problem should arise with the sensor probe, see Error Handling below for how the
transmitter reacts to error conditions.
CAUTION! Any attempt to open the module or remove the sensor probe will
void the warranty.
A. Powering Up
After the SMT is wired as described in Section II, power may be applied to the unit.
The transmitter takes approximately 20 seconds to initialize and begin normal
operation. The unit will meet specified accuracy in 3 minutes.
B. Error Handling
In the event of an error condition, the analog output reading is forced to the following
values:
 ≥ 22 mA to indicate a shorted probe

 ≤ 3.5 mA to indicate an open probe

X. Helpful Information
A. Ten Things to Consider When Making Moisture Measurements in Gases
1. The sampling system should be allowed to equilibrate for up to (typically) 24

hours.
2. A purge flow meter aids in determining equilibration point and will indicate integrity
of seals. If probe reading changes with a change of flow rate:
a. Equilibration has not been achieved.
b. System is leaking.
c. Both of above.
3. Measurements should be made at system pressure, or highest possible pressure,

to minimize outgassing of metal parts, wall effects, etc. This will result in higher
dew points with increased sensitivity. Remember, it’s necessary to convert
readings taken at atmosphere to equivalent dew point at line pressure, if line
pressure dew point is what is wanted, or vice versa. For example, -40F at 100
psig line pressure is equal to -70F at atmospheric pressure.
4. Often, it’s necessary to measure at a point that requires a sample stream purging
to atmosphere. This measurement is fraught with difficulties.
a. Equilibration is next to impossible.
b. Diffusion of atmospheric water vapor is always present. Since the system is

“open ended” to atmosphere, the amount of water vapor “back flow” (against
the outflowing sample stream) is influenced by ambient changes from night to
day, season to season, and even hour to hour.
c. Even if a “pigtail” discharge system is fashioned, with a throttle valve at the

end, the diffusion is only minimized. Results are influenced so much by
ambient conditions that the precise measurement of low (less than
-75F) moisture levels may be unachievable and even unrepeatable with an
“open ended” system.

X. Helpful Information (continued)
5. Any cross checking between two or more similar instruments should be done at
identical times and conditions. This is even more important when dissimilar
instruments are checked, one against another. It’s not possible to use some
models of moisture meters under flowing conditions (in situ) on stream or at line
pressures. Some are unstable or are affected by temperature changes or other
variables.
6. Certain contaminants can cause false readings or desensitize the probe. The
system will have to dry out before data can be taken again.
7. Cleanliness is essential. Sampling techniques and set-up procedures should be

standardized. Manufacturer’s specs on sampling and measuring techniques
should be followed as written.
8. Spare SMT's should be purchased. This will allow checking one against another
and will avoid having the meter out of service while SMT's are in the lab for
recalibration.
9. Everyone involved should be as knowledgeable as possible on the difficulties of

moisture measurement, the use of equipment, and the meaning of data.
10. Define problems carefully. The right approach to equipment selection and
measurement techniques will instill confidence in the end results.
B. Measuring Dew Points: Pressure vs. Atmospheric
1. The SMT will measure either pressure or atmospheric dew points. For many
applications, measuring pressure dew point may be more meaningful.
2. To measure pressure dew points, connect the supply line to the inlet of the
sample cell. Slowly open the inlet valve fully and close the outlet valve. The
sample cell should now be pressurized. Slightly open the outlet valve. The
instrument is now measuring pressure dew point.
Reference 085 815-786-9471 Rev 5

SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
C. Moisture Monitor Hints
1. The water vapor pressure at the measurement location is the result of not only the
moisture content of the fluid entering the system, but also is due to desorption of
moisture from associated piping, leaks in the piping system, and moisture trapped
in fittings, valves, filters, etc.
2. Whether the sensor is used in situ or in a sampling system, one should remember
that the accuracy and speed of measurement would be dependent on the
dynamics of the fluid and piping system. Response times and measurement values
will depend on the degree of equilibrium reached by the piping system. Such
factors as gas pressure and flow rate, materials of construction, length and
diameter of piping, etc., will influence the moisture levels and response times
measured.
3. The most frequent questions associated with the total systems occur when:
a. The response time is very slow.
b. The dew point changes as the temperature changes.
c. The dew point changes as the flow rate changes.
Reference 085 815-786-9471 Rev 5

SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
4. The probe is insensitive to temperature and flow rate and measures the vapor
pressure of water only. If the above affects are noted, then they are almost always
the result of the system itself and not the sensor.
a. Pressure
i. It is generally advantageous to operate at the highest possible pressure,

especially at very low moisture concentrations. This minimizes wall
effects and will result in higher dew points with subsequent increased
sensitivity.
b. Response Time
i. The response time is, in general, limited by the response time of the
WHOLE SYSTEM to moisture changes. Water vapor is adsorbed
tenaciously in many materials. A large, complex processing system can
take several days to “dry down” from atmospheric moisture levels to dew
points of less than -75F. Even simple systems consisting of several feet
of stainless steel tubing and a small chamber can take an hour or more to
dry from dew points of +40F to -95F. The rate of equilibrium of the
system will be dependent on the flow rates, temperature, materials of
construction, and the system pressure.
ii. An increase in flow rate and temperature will decrease the response time
of the whole system.
c. Temperature
i. It is recommended that the ambient temperature be at least +50F higher

than the measured dew point (to a maximum of 150F).
d. Flow Rate
i. If the dew point of a system changes as the flow rate changes, then it can
be attributed to inequilibrium (i.e. the system is off-gassing or leaking). With
moisture leaking in a system (either a physical leak or the release from the
walls of previously adsorbed moisture), an increase in flow rate should
result in a lower vapor pressure and, hence, a lower dew point due to the
dilution of the secondary moisture by the main gas stream.

D. Contaminants
1. Industrial gases often contain fine particulate matter. Materials such as carbon
particles, salts, rust particles, polymerized substances, chemical liquid droplets,
dust, molecular sieve, or alumina dust can be present. Their effect on the
operation of the sensor is described below.
a. Non-conductive Particulates (i.e. molecular sieve particles, liquid droplets of

hydrocarbons, oil droplets)
i. In general, non-conductive liquids condensing on the sensor will not

seriously hinder the performance of the sensor. A slower response to
moisture changes will probably be observed due to the liquids acting as a
barrier decreasing the rate of transport of the water vapor, hence, hindering
the response time.
ii. Particulate matter of high density and at high flow rates may cause
abrasion or pitting of the sensor surface. This can cause severe change in
calibration and, in extreme cases, cause failure of the sensor. A stainless
steel shield is supplied with the sensor to minimize this effect. However, in
severe cases, it is advisable to filter the incoming stream with filters of
teflon or stainless steel.
iii. On rare occasions, non-conductive particulate material may become

lodged under the contact arm of the sensor, creating an open circuit. If any
of the above occurs, Henderson Engineering Co. recommends return of the
SMT to the factory for cleaning.
Reference 085 815-786-9471 Rev 5

SAHARA AIR PRODUCTS
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
b. Conductive Particulates (i.e. metallic, carbon, or conductive liquid droplets)
i. Since the probe reading is inversely proportional to the impendance, a

decrease in resistance will cause an increase in meter reading. Thus,
conductive particles across the sensor leads or on the sensor surface can
lead to a reduced impendance with a subsequently erroneous high dew
point. The most common particulates of this type are carbon (from
furnaces), iron scale (from pipe walls), and glycol droplets (from glycol
dehydrators).
ii. On rare occasion, the conductive contaminant may cause a low resistance
to occur from ground to one of the sensor leads. In this instance, a
reduction in meter reading will occur. This phenomena is readily observed,
since it not only influences the reading of the contaminated sensor, but can
also influence all other sensors connected to the same readout. Henderson
Engineering Co. recommends return of the SMT to the factory for cleaning.
c. Corrosive Particulates (i.e. sodium chloride, sodium hydroxide, etc.)
i. The active sensor element is constructed of aluminum. Any material that will
corrode aluminum will harmfully affect the operation of the sensor. The
combination of this particulate and water will lead to pitting or severe
corrosion of the element. In such instances, the sensor cannot be cleaned
or repaired.
E. Aluminum Oxide Probe Maintenance
1. If for some reason an electrically conductive liquid or any other temporary

contaminant is on the aluminum oxide sensor, the ambient moisture will be
incorrect. Henderson Engineering Co. recommends return of the SMT to the
factory for analysis and cleaning.
2. For optimum performance, Henderson Engineering Co. recommends having the

SMT calibrated annually.

reservoir, the condensate line to the Robo Drain must al-
ways be installed below the bottom of the vessel to be
drained. It is equally important to provide a means for the air
that is contained in the reservoir to escape (vent) as the
condensate enters the reservoir. If the air can not escape,
the condensate will not enter the reservoir. Below are sug-
gestions on how to best install the Robo Drain on typical
types of vessels that have to drained of condensate. How-
ever, it is possible to install the Robo Drain without a bal-
ance line (Dwg. not shown), providing the condensate en-
ters the top inlet and the flow rates are less than 9 GPH
(750 cfm for an aftercooler or 1500 cfm drier) for a 1/2"
drain line and 19 GPH (1500 cfm for an aftercooler or 3000
cfm drier) for a 3/4" line. The use of unions and shut-off
valves are recommended for both the condensate line and
the balance line.
RECEIVER TANK
The preferred installation for a Robo Drain on a receiver
tank is having the condensate enter the top inlet port and
having the balance line go back to the tank at a position that
is above the level of the condensate (Dwg. 1).
FILTER and AFTERCOOLER MOISTURE SEPARATOR

If a cyclone separator or filter has pipe plugs located in the
top of the head, the plug closest to the discharge pipe
should be removed and the balance line should be installed
(Dwg. 2). If there is no provision on the cyclone separator or
filter for a balance line, install it in the discharge side of the
pipe line and as close to the cyclone separator as possible.
REFRIGERATED DRYER
If a balance line is required, it must be connected to the port
located on top of the separator that is closest to the dis-
charge side (Dwg. 2), or between the separator and the air-
to-air heat exchanger. If a port is not available as described
above, then venting to atmosphere is recommended. When
venting to atmosphere, the condensate should enter
through the bottom entry port on the drain. The bleed or
needle valve is installed on the 1/8" NPT vent port and al-
lows the air in the Robo Drain reservoir to escape to the
atmosphere (Dwg. 3). The bleed valve (not included) should
be adjusted so that only 3 to 5 bubbles per second are visi-
ble. We do not recommend installing a vent line down
stream from the dryer. The vent line can be a conduit for
transferring moisture from the drain to the previously dried
air. This can result in unwanted moisture being sent down
stream.
INTERCOOLERS
Install the condensate drain line into the upper port only.
This will prevent the possibility of condensate being drawn
back into the intercooler on some systems. It is important
that the vent line be installed on the same stage that is be-
ing drained or to atmosphere.
BALANCE LINE
As mentioned above, both the use and the placement of a
balance line is very important. Most drain failures are the
result of an improper balance line installation. The balance
line should be 1/4" tubing or larger, and installed on top of a
pipe or vessel, not the bottom. A needle valve is recom-
mended for controlling the air flow. Avoid having any loops
or low areas in the balance line that might allow moisture to
collect in the line and prevent the passage of air from the
drains reservoir.

MAINTENANCE
Normal stem packing wear can be compensated for by tightening the packing gland
screw clockwise. If all of the adjustment to the packing gland screw has been made,
remove the lever and packing gland nut and add one or two replacement bearings on
top of the old packing. Reassemble the lever and packing gland nut.
CAUTION: Do not disassemble Valve while under pressure nor with entrapped
hazardous fluids therein.
General repair of the valve can be made by:
1. Close valve.
2. Remove retainer from body center section by turning counterclockwise
3. ¼” thru 1” valves only; pry out the top seat being careful not to damage the ball. 1½””
thru 2” valves; the top seat will come out with the retainer.
4. Push ball out of body with finger.
5. Remove packing gland nut by turning counterclockwise and push stem down into
body to remove.
6. Remove all seats and seals. To facilitate removal of the stem packing, cut with knife.
7. Replace all seats and seals as furnished in the Repair Kit. Inspect the ball and stem
for excessive wear or damage and replace if necessary.
8. Reverse the above procedure to reassemble using a sealant on the retainer threads
equivalent to Loctite Hydraulic Sealant. NOTE: VALVES IN OXYGEN SERVICE
CAN ONLY BE SEALED WITH AN OXYGEN COMPATIBLE THREAD SEALANT.
Union End Valves cannot be easily field repaired, therefore it is recommended that the
main valve section be replaced.
NOTE: ALWAYS TEST VALVE AND SYSTEM BEFORE PUTTING THE SYSTEM
INTO SERVICE.

MAINTENANCE
1. Reasonable precautions should be taken before beginning work on the valve. Protective clothing, as
required, should be worn.
2. WARNING: Before removing actuator from the valve, or before removing seat retainer from a valve in
dead end service, close the valve and depressurize the line.
The eccentric design of the valve may allow line pressure to open the valve if the actuator is not in
place while the valve is under pressure.
WARNING: Do not pressurize the line without an actuator on the valve.
3. The valve must be in the closed position to be removed from the line.
4. Begin all work on a valve that has been removed from the line by cleaning the valve, removing any
grit or scale.
CAUTION: When handling the valve, care should be taken not to scratch the disc edge or seat.
5. Replacement seats, seals and other parts are available from Henderson Engineering Co., Inc.

VALVE
MAINTENANCE
1. Reasonable precautions should be taken before beginning work on the valve. Protective clothing, as
required, should be worn.
2. WARNING: Before removing handle from the valve, or before removing seat retainer from a valve in
dead end service, close the valve and depressurize the line.
The eccentric design of the valve may allow line pressure to open the valve if the handle is not in
place while the valve is under pressure.
WARNING: Do not pressurize the line without a handle on the valve.
3. The valve must be in the closed position to be removed from the line.
4. Begin all work on a valve that has been removed from the line by cleaning the valve, removing any
grit or scale.
CAUTION: When handling the valve, care should be taken not to scratch the disc edge or seat.
5. Replacement seats, seals and other parts are available from Henderson Engineering Co., Inc.
STEM SEAL REPLACEMENT

Refer to the component drawing on page 2 of this cut sheet for parts identification.
1. If required, remove handle assembly. Remove socket head cap screws (21) and lock washers (22).
Remove mounting bracket (20).
NOTICE: Note assembly positions before removal.
2. Remove gland retainer nuts (14) and lock washers (13). Remove gland retainer (11) anti-blowout
retaining ring or split ring (10) (depending on size), and gland ring (7).
3. Hook out stem seals (8).
CAUTION: When handling stem seals, care should be taken not to scratch stem or stuffing box bore.
Do not remove thrust washer (9), unless further valve disassembly is required.
4. Examine stuffing box bore and stem, clean as necessary to remove any corrosion or foreign matter
before installing new seals.
5. Install new seals in stuffing box one at a time, TFE (white) seals first, with the carbon fiber ring at the
top. Stagger seal ring joints 180° apart when installing. Tamp each ring to bottom before installing
next ring.
NOTICE: On the larger valves, it will be necessary to compress each seal before adding the next.
6. Slide gland ring (7) over stem on top of seals (8). Install anti-blowout retaining ring or split ring (10)
(depending on valve size). Slide gland retainer (11) over stem and onto gland studs (12). Place
lockwashers (13) and hex nuts (14) on studs (12) and tighten finger tight. Tighten gland nuts (14)
evenly and alternately to the proper torque value given in Table 1 on page 4 of this cut sheet.
7. Remount mounting bracket (20) with lock washers (22) and cap screws (21) and handle assembly.
8. Operate valve open and closed several times to check for binding and to set the stem seals. Loosen
gland nuts (14) and retighten to torque value given in Table 1 on page 4 of this cut sheet.

VALVE
SEAT REPLACEMENT
Refer to the component drawing on page 2 of this cut sheet for parts identification. With the disc in the
closed position, remove the valve from the line.
1. Lay the valve down with the disc in the closed position and the seat retainer side facing up.
2. Remove the socket head cap screws (17), the seat retainer (16), and seat (15).
3. Carefully clean the seat area in the body and seat retainer. Remove foreign matter, dirt, etc. Check
disc seating area for nicks or scratches.
4. Place the new seat (15) on disc (2), carefully centering it in the recess in the body.
5. Align the holes in the seat retainer (16) with matching holes in body and carefully place in position on
top of seat (15).
CAUTION: Do not shift the retainer in order to align holes. It may shift from its correct position.
Lightly grease cap screw (17) threads and tighten down evenly, alternating from top to bottom and
side to side. Tighten to the torque values in Table 1 shown below.
6. Operate valve several times and examine seat for any damage before reinstalling the valve in the
line.
