Stupid me. I meant to write that the drier would be hotter than it surrounds. So you want it to vent away temps. Jeff Sent from my brain.

Hello Pantera loving people, Driers run hot and maybe hotter than its environment. Take a fast drive with a/c on max then stop and quickly check drier body temp and its surrounding metal with temp gun to see what they are. I believe the dryer maybe cooler than its area. So insulation only sounds good. Also your oil is cooler so to help the compressor.
A drier should release temp not hold it.
Thanks, Jeff Cobb Sent from my brain.

I believe that is a safety switch that cuts off the compressor if the system pressure is too high (above 400 psi) or too low (less than 28 psi). Many driers have an M10 x 1.25 threaded fitting for the above mentioned safety switch.
Warmest regards, Chuck Engles

What kind of drier is that with an electrical plug in it?

Or you can just avoid the concern of engine bay heat while cleaning up the engine bay appearance by locating the drier in this manner inside the RR wheel well.
