Abstract
An air dryer device for drying compressed air includes a housing having an inlet port and an outlet port. An elongated desiccant container is mounted within the housing and holding a desiccant therein. One end of the desiccant container communicates with the inlet port while the other end communicates with the outlet port, so that the compressed air fed to the inlet port is passed through the desiccant container to be dried and is discharged from the outlet port. At least part of the desiccant container is transparent. An inspection window is mounted on the housing in opposed relation to the transparent part of the desiccant container so that the desiccant in the desiccant container can be viewed from outside the housing through the inspection window and the transparent part of the desiccant container.
