You are correct in mentioning that too much moisture in the system
would be bad news. I should have mentioned that my compressed air
system runs pretty dry since most of the moisture is removed by several
filters. The drier/receiver will take care of the small amount left in
the lines. Maxifrig recommends NOT to evacuate the system. Not sure
why. Anyway, I am not too concerned about corrosion problems under
these circumstances.
