    Water vapor content table

    The water vapor content table defines the maximum amount of moisture that can be contained in air or compressed air at a specific temperature.
     

    The maximum amount of moisture only depends on the temperature and is independent from the pressure!

Air or compressed air containing the maximum amount of moisture is called saturated.

Air or compressed air containing less than the maximum amount of moisture is called non-saturated.

Air or compressed air containing more than the maximum amount of moisture is "theoretically over-saturated" – 
the excessive amount of moisture condenses to liquid water while the air gets saturated again.
