QUOTE(eehtsitna @ Nov 26 2006, 12:02 AM) Sorry for the late reply guys!  Too bad i do not know the exact location of the shop that sells the moisture trap. A friend of mine help me to get it. If you are interested to get one, I can ask get the address from my friend. And regarding the moisture trap. No it does not include a pressure regulator. Infact you do not need one since the one already install on the compressor is more than enough. And there are not any silica gel too. The moisture trap works exactly like the name. It has a chamber that traps water in it. If you know how to handle a spanner you will have no problem installing the trap.  Hope this help. Ps: I will try to post a pic of the moisture trap once i found it in my pc. Yeah,an adress would be great.Thanks a lot |

Mine compressor does not have a moisture trap. It will start to have water coming out of the AB when i used it for a whole day, usually because the tank water level is too high in the tank.

eheheh... as for moisture trap... i'm also looking for one.. and eehtsitna is right abt the moisture trap... i'm also looking for that didnt use the regulator on top since my compressor already got a regulator...  so far no luck... my local hardware store didnt have the trap i require.. most of the either very expensive.... (RM90 for the one without regulator) or didnt have the right connector to it... oh i just acquire my compressor last weekend.. kuman |

Btw guys,now i actually do think the compressor has a moisture trap already.If u see beside the tank,it has some sort of valve,and it looks very similar to any moisture trap.And as with moisture trap,the moisture needs to be drained out,and it works in a similar fashion as the one at the bottom of the tank.Hmmmm,maybe the uncle is right after all.What do u guys think???  |

Maybe just a regulator to control the air pressure. The moisture trap that you show is not 100% effective. It depend very much on humid and air temperature. |

So I think " Maybe". Cause my compressor didn't come with a moisture trap and got to buy one myself. By the way, the actual name for this moisture trap is air filter regulator. |

The picture you are showing is call "air filter regulator". (Or what you guys call as "moisture trap"). Here is the example. This is my compressor with the air filter regulator and the dryer (membrane air dryer). The air filter regulator(moisture trap) is the same with your one.

I think this kind of compressor is quite noisy. It won't stop running till you switch off. It will heat up very fast and spray quite alot of water. If you technical enough, you can modify by putting a tank, on/off air switch and an air filter regulator. Below the tank weld a socket and put a valve where you can drain the water regulary. That will solve the problem and get a smooth air flow. But not the noise. |

Just the air filter regulator won't be enough to filter out the water when the air temperature head up. Inside dryer is content chemical. The actual name is "Membrane Air Dryer". |
