Regenerative Dryer
Reduced Production Costs
Give yourself a competitive edge by reducing
production costs with the revolutionary Sahara-Pak.
The first to develop a heat-of-compression regenerative
dryer, Sahara Air Products has been a leader in
compressed air and gas technology since the 1950’s.
The unique Sahara-Pak uses the normally wasted heat from the compressor to regenerate its desiccant.
In addition to efficiently using the heat-of-compression,
the Sahara-Pak produces extremely low dew points.
An important energy-saving design feature of the
Sahara-Pak is the repositioned aftercooler. In order to
use the heat-of-compression, the hot air goes directly
into the regenerating tower, then to the aftercooler and
drying tower. Net result, instrument quality air for free.
A Green Dryer, HOC Requires No CFC’s Does Not Pollute
There are two Sahara-Pak designs that allow you to choose the dryer which best fits your needs. All Heat-of-Compression dryers may only be used with an oil-free compressor; located reasonably close to the compressor. Pipe between the compressor final stage discharge and the Heat-of-Compression dryer should be insulated to
minimize heat loss. Consult Lone Star on what is right for your application. Call today or contact us.
Starlube® Synthetic Lubricants
PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT &
ENSURE MAXIMUM RELIABILITY & SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE
Starlube® Synthetic Lubricants are specifically designed to ensure maximum reliability and superior performance for geared and multistage turbo technologies.
Proper maintenance coupled with using prescribed lubricants is crucial to protecting your investment and the long term reliability of your equipment. As a blower manufacturer, we can recommend the proper lubricants to use in any application or environment.

Integrally Geared Centrifugal Blowers & Compressors Synthetic Oil and Grease
| SO‑INFINITY | Offers up to 90,000 hours of maximum protection. A true Group V PAG synthetic oil, there is nothing better to last longer, run cooler, and protect against any possible varnishing for integrally geared compressors. | |
| SO‑32 | A Group III synthetic oil offering protection twice as long any as petroleum base lubricants and can upgrade your current installation. |
| SO‑46 | A Group III synthetic oil for standard applications with superior rust and anti-oxidation properties combined with a great emulsifier of any condensation. | ||
| SO‑150 | Similar to SO-46, but for higher temperature applications. | ||
| SG‑100 | Synthetic grease offers extreme anti-corrosion and anti-oxidant characteristics to enhance its performance at higher speeds, heavy loads and high temperatures. |
Choose our FO-100 oil and FG-100 grease for applications with food grade requirements.

Lone Star Oil Sample Kit
Increase life and reliability of your investment by monitoring the oil with the Lone Star Oil Sampling Kit
Lone Star Oil Sample Kit provides everything you need to take an oil sample, package and mail it and receive a detailed report that is also sent to Lone Star for review.
Oil sampling can detect potential problems long before costly repairs might be needed and also help determine the correct maintenance interval of your blower for your process and environment
Each kit includes a carrying case, hand oil pump, disposable tubing, sample jars, shipping container, pre-paid postage envelope that includes the cost of the analysis.
*Oil and Grease should be changed when required. This is accomplished by sampling and determining the maintenance
interval. • Never mix lubricants or over fill. • Consult your Operations and Maintenance manual for instructions.
Inlet Air Filters
Purge Panels
Purge Systems for Gas Seals
PURGING IS THE MOST RELIABLE LONG-TERM SOLUTION
All dry gas seals leak and increase leakage over time. The best long-term solution is adding a positive pressure purge barrier ensuring 100% seal of the gas. Purge panels can also prolong the life of the seal by keeping it cool, clean and dry and do not have to rely on friction as a sealing method. Typical purge seepage into the process is minimal (less than 0.1 cfm).
Since dry instrument quality purge is not always available, we offer an optional dryer system down to a -40 degree dew point. Alternatively, we can add a nitrogen membrane dryer to ensure any seepage of purge gas to the process is 99% N2.
Lone Star incorporates a delta pressure regulator that makes the purge pressure only slightly higher than the blower pressure. This nearly eliminates seepage while maintaining 100% process containment. Lone Star purge systems can be fully mechanical or automated for remote alarm and monitoring.
- 100% Gas Containment
- Prolongs Seal Life
- Automation adjustments reduce seepage
- Option Filtration for Purge Quality
- Nitrogen Generators and Dryers
- Automated Options with sLOC™ Control Panels
LONG LASTING POWDER-COATED FRAMEWORK
WITH STAINLESS STEEL CONTROL PANEL
DELTA PRESSURE REGULATION SAVES ENERGY
Maintaining the seal purge pressure just above the process pressure, and automatically adjusting for fluctuations, allows for minimal seepage into the process and therefor less purge gas is consumed
