I have been doing alot of media blasting lately on the 1964 Gladiator truck and was having problems with moisture getting into the blaster. I had a moisture separator and particulate separator about six feet from the compressor.
My solution was that I added an air conditioning condenser between the compressor and the same filters that I already had. It made all the difference. I now have no problems at my end device. The reason it works is that the temperature of the air is reduced with the condenser coil. That allows the moisture to not be suspended in the air stream and drop out of the air allowing the separator to do its job.
The condenser coil was just out a car that I parted out nothing special.
Not that it is complicated, but here are some pictures. If you look close at the seperator on the right it has a sight glass and you can see the float at the top. That is after about an hour of running. Prior to adding the heat exchanger I rarely had to dump water out of that separator.
Hope it helps someone else. You could expand on the idea and add fans, or set it in front of and AC vent, or a anything to drop the air temperature of the air and it would dry the air more.
