Description

Protect your Air Venturi 4500 psi Compressor from potentially harmful moisture with the Air Venturi Dry Air Intake Filter by Hill. The Dry Air Intake filter removes moisture from the air as it enters your compressor.  This significantly reduces the chance of moisture entering your tanks or PCP cylinders when you fill them.  Easily installs onto the Air Venturi 4500 psi compressor in just minutes.  Includes a stand, hose, and enough Hill Dry Pac media to fill the filter. 

Tech Note: Do NOT set your Filter on top of the compressor while running. The vibration could cause the filter media to break and turn into dust which can clog the filter and damage your compressor.

This Dry Air intake filter virtually eliminated all the noticeable moisture when the compressor drain is opened after a fill.

Nothing

The intake coupling might have to be disassembled when attaching it to the air intake of the compressor in order to allow sufficient clearance when threading it on.

After the first use, and upon draining the receiver condensate drain, I noticed very little moisture content. Usually there is a lot of moisture. It looks like this air intake filter is working. If this continues then its worth the cost and I will be fully satisfied.

Nothing at this time.

Liv in San Diego and noticed the moisture after releasing presure from just a hose fill and that there was no moisture when using this pre filter. I also protect my tanks by using two, verticaly placed, high presure filters. One uses the same type filter in the machine, the other is a JB.

A cap to keep moisture out when not in use would be great and would buy an after market one, so you people with 3D printers get buisy.

Yes, get this!

It works

How it attaches to compressor and I would also change the orientation it should suck the air in from the bottom my personal opinion and maybe make a cap for the top to stop the silica beads from soaking in moisture from the air when machine is not running or idle in between uses

Fitting that attaches to the cylinder head intake is oversized and you have to make your own threads when screwing it in

MARK Dec 08, 2021

Read reviews which were helpful. I also used razor knife to cut first 2 threads before screwing into cylinder...then turned until tight. Had to remove part of assembly to negotiate turning without hitting chassis of compressor. Then low and behold! The red plastic compressor oil plug which had to be removed to install the oil breather just happened to fit the inlet of this filter! Red color is good, I will be reminded to remove it before running compressor. Just sayin.

The over sized fitting ruin my 2 week old compressor by having shaved plastic fall in cylinder

I have experience with this problem as well. Use plastic 1/2" pipe threaded fitting on LP inlet side with threaded elbow with tubing stem to interface with tubing from dryer/filter device. PLEASE REMEMBER: KEEP INLET CLEAN!!! Entry of shavings, dirt, joint compound into system WILL play havoc with the compressor. Prep tubing fittings with care!

It's simple and straight forward.

Build it into the Air Venturi Compressor. Ship it with four full bags of fill so that the purchaser gets a full 3 refills before needing to anti up again.

Moisture is a gun killer. I'll do whatever I need to in order to make sure my rifles stay as dry as possible.

4.0 advice!! Am considering adding a dry air system from plasma welding gear to have very dry and clean air in my PCP pieces.

I have only had this product a short time so this review is to encourage anyone who pays a thousand dollars for a compressor and sometimes more for an airgun to take every precaution with moisture. Easy to install.

It would be good if Air Ventura would provide for a better system for moisture elimination.

I had been using a 6000 psi nitrogen tank for several years. The regulator cost several hundred dollars, $120 to fill the tank about once a year and $20 monthly rental. I preferred that set up in spite of the price. I gave up the tank because I had to haul the tank in for refills and the weight just got too much to handle.

Fairly simple to set up and works great. needed a little finese to get on the compressor.

Taper the mount threading to the compressor.

The threaded portion of the filter mount to the compressor is a tad larger and would not go on at first. I used an Exacto knife and removed the first 2 thread rings to allow the mount to slide in a little before catching the threads. It also would not just thread on, as the stainless end needed to be removed. It would hit the compressor's frame and not allow it to be turned. Easy to take off and put back on.

I really like this dry air intake (molecular sieve). It is well built and heavy duty and made specifically for the AV compressor. I keep my AV compressor covered with the heavy duty shipping box it came in when not in use. The dry air intake comes with easy disconnect connections so it is easy to remove the hose and store the assy. It has a filter disc on the top and bottom of the beads to catch any dust that may be present. The hose is really heavy duty and plenty long enough. It is great to be able to dry the air entering the compressor and am glad this is available for purchase.

The top is open of course for air intake, but I wouldn't mind a top cap for when not in use, but is not really needed with the filter disc on top. Don't set the sieve on top of the compressor when running the compressor. It may break up the beads and cause dust particles. That's in the manual that comes with it.

Very easy to install and comes with a easy to understand manual. Just be careful to not cross thread the threads on the compressor intake side. It has a custom piece that screws into the compressor intake.
