ANGI Energy Systems Natural Gas Dryer Skid with Controls, Motor, and Cooler

What utilities, footprint and power draw does it require?

The skid requires 230/460V three-phase power for the 1 HP Baldor motor (drawing 2 amps at 460V or 1 amp at 230V under load) and 120VAC single-phase, 5 amp supply for the control panel. The listing does not provide skid dimensions, weight, instrument air requirements, or cooling water demand if the AKG air cooler was supplemented with evaporative cooling—request a general arrangement drawing and utility consumption data. Natural gas dryer skids of this type typically include regeneration gas circulation and may require vent gas disposal depending on process design.

How long was it in service, how long has it been down, and how was it preserved?

The listing does not state service history, decommissioning date, or preservation method. Desiccant beds can adsorb atmospheric moisture during storage, and seals and gaskets may have aged depending on storage conditions—ask the seller for run hours, last operational date, reason for removal, and whether vessels were purged, blinded, and desiccant was left in place or removed. Motors and controls stored outdoors without climate control often require testing or refurbishment even if the pressure boundary is sound.

What is realistically involved in relocating and re-erecting it?

As a skid-mounted unit, this should lift and transport intact if tie-down points and center of gravity are known—request skid dimensions, weight, and any shipping drawings. The Sivon pressure vessel will require registration and possible inspection in the destination jurisdiction; MAWP of 150 PSI at 250°F and the 2014 NB stamp should transfer, but some states require re-inspection after relocation. Hazardous location wiring (Class I Div 2 panel, Class I/II junction box) must be installed by qualified personnel familiar with NEC Article 500.
