The TRI method for conducting moisture testing is an on-site method that directly measures the moisture content of the compressed air stream using a color indicator tube. We choose to use this onsite method because moisture content measured from a low-pressure sample container can be inaccurate due to the loss or gain of moisture through interaction with the interior surfaces of the sample container including the polymeric and elastomeric seal. Also, differences between the sampling temperature and the temperature when the moisture analysis is conducted remotely can introduce error into moisture results. TRI's methodology represents an accurate picture of the moisture content of the breathing air at the time of sampling.
