Water in the lines is not a quick fix. Water droplets will adhere to the inside of the line and then randomly show up. I suspect this due to no changes to the system and the system now showing water. So will agree with the super heated air, cooler lines, condensation. I have battled moisture here at school for years. Have installed many moisture traps, good quality traps, drops and we open two ball valves to release any moisture before turning another valve to pressurize a line. Just this week we have not had to change the desicant in the traps on the main line. I think we finally have a handle on moisture control. Now this is if every student follows this procedure. One day of releasing moisture if it still is there, we will start all over again.
Your drop on the paint room that is a T, I would think a Y with the top of the Y being the input, the other top of the Y being the output to the spraygun, the bottom of the Y being the moisture trap/ball valve at the bottom. Make gravity your friend and the path of least resistance for the water.
I emailed a few questions concerning our school set up to this company (Steve). Got replies with in a couple of days. Eventually bought what they suggested and have the most success I have ever had here in this shop.
