In Rico14's post in this thread, he recommends the McMaster-Carr filter. I recommend that model too and used one on my Freedom 8. However, McMaster-Carr is charging $97 for this filter. I found mine on Ebay, and Zoro Tools sells them on their website for
$55 shipped. The Zoro Tools item number is G0641864 That's half of McMaster-Carr's price for the identical item. Mine worked like a champ and I had zero moisture issues going into my tanks or airguns. What I like about the Wilkerson is that this one is the perfect size to go with a Freedom 8, and the desiccant beads are easily recharged by heating them in a flat pan in an oven set to 250 degrees for about 15 minutes. The beads are pink when moist and turn blue after recharging. I recharged mine several times after about 20 hours runtime on the Shoebox. The Diablo does the same thing but on the output side of the Shoebox. Why spend four times the amount to accomplish the same result? My thought is dry air in means dry air out.

Well sort of.... If you remove 99% of the moisture at 15 psi and then compress it to 1500 psi, the remaining water will start to condense out to a liquid.... The original Shoebox operates from an 85 psi input, so if you manage to dry the air on the output side of the shop compressor to just 2% relative humidity, you will still get liquid water forming at 4500 psi.... So it all depends on how "dry" is "dry"....

Here's another thought about these dryers on the input and output sides... w/all these extra restrictions, will this make the equipment work harder? Or am I off base?

I'm guessing it might stress a higher volume pump some, but slow as a shoebox type is , I don't expect it to hurt enough to notice??
This is what I think, not what I know!

For the inlet side, take a look at this old thread:
http://www.gatewaytoairguns.org/GTA/index.php?topic=39174
Read down in the comments also. I have experienced the same problem before. An HF desiccant filter on inlet side and I pump straight to gun but still find moisture when I tear it down. Not much exposure time of the air to the desiccant in those little filters. Makes sense to increase the volume and give it a chance to pull more moisture out.
