1. A device for adsorbing a gas from a gas mixture to be treated, having an inlet for gas to be treated and an outlet for treated gas, which device comprises at least two vessels filled with a regenerable adsorbent and an adjustable valve system connecting said inlet and outlet to said vessels, whereby the adjustable valve system is such that at least one vessel will treat compressed gas while the other vessel is regenerated, whereby by control of the valve system the vessels each in turn treat compressed gas sequentially, wherein the adjustable valve system is assembled in a single valve block; in that the valve block is provided with: at least one control valve; a supply channel running from the inlet to the at least one control valve; a blow-off channel leading from the at least one control valve to a blow-off opening.
