erkuts, I doubt you will find any such specified. How much moisture can your vessel tolerate?

The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand
 
I always took the route to calculate the min temp possible (from expansion) and then made sure that the air was dry enough to prevent condensation from forming.
