DAP Series D R Y A I R PA C
For Critical Applications
Where Moisture Removal is Essential
General’s DAP Series Dry Air PacTM is an FM Approved, twin tower
regenerative dryer / compressor package. This turnkey system is designed to
provide the sprinkler system with moisture free air to a -40oF Dew Point. The air
compressor is designed to fill the sprinkler system in accordance with NFPA 13
standards, as well as provide the higher pressure needed to allow the twin tower
regenerative dryer to function properly.
Prior to entering the regenerative air dryer, an air cooled aftercooler cools
the compressor’s hot discharge air to a maximum 100oF. A coalescing
prefilter with differential pressure gauge removes oil vapor and other
contaminants that can destroy the desiccant in the dryer towers.
A combination particulate filter and regulator prevents downstream
migration of desiccant dust while regulating air pressure to the
sprinkler system.
All components are pre-piped, pre-tested, and pre-wired
for ease of mechanical and electrical installation on site. Each
unit includes a UL Listed, FM Approved Air Maintenance
Device. -100oF dew point is achievable - consult factory for
details.
Applications for the Dry Air PacTM include, but
are not limited to Freezer Rooms, Cold Storage
Warehouses, Attic Spaces and Parking Garages.

DAP Series Standard Features Include:


- UL/FM Approved Air Maintenance Device
- Combination Afterfilter and Regulator
Dry Air Pac Test Kit (DAP-TK)
- Dew Point Test Port
This accessory attaches easily to the dew
- Oversized Mufflers
point test port on each DAP Series unit.
- Hour Meter

- Compact Air Cooled Aftercooler

- Prefilter with Differential Pressure Gauge

- Vibration Pads

- Customer Ser vice and Tec hnical Suppor t

Important Note:
The FM Approval on the Dry Air PacTM eliminates the requirement to connect
the air intake to the freezer room. NFPA 13 exempts any approved packages from this
costly requirement. General’s Dry Air Pac is the only package on the market that meets
this exemption.
