Trockenpatrone
Explanation:
You have to regard the whole term "Silica Gel Cartridge Assy" to find the German translation. This "Assy" normally consists of a short plastic tube which contains silica gel (German "Kieselgel" or "Kieselsäuregel", the stuff you will find in small bags when unpacking new electronic equipment) and is closed at both ends using a perforated plastic disk in order to enable the medium which is to be desiccated to pass through the tube. The German term is purpose-related as this assy is used to capture small amounts of humidity (mostly in gases, in this case probably from the compressed air for the spray gun as it is used for airbrushing).

Patronenhalterung [?]


Explanation:
Sounds a bit like "Patronenhalterung" to me, i.e. the metal frame in which you put the silicon cartridge...

Maybe the following extract from Langenscheidt helps:
assy <tech.gen> (assembled components) Baugruppe f; Baueinheit f; Montagegruppe f rar; Aufbau m rar

Explanation:
another (nicely vague) possibility to account for the assembly part; the next line is the 'bare' cartridge

neutral  Harry Borsje: so what to do with the next (replacement?) item on the list then...
4 hrs
  -> The next item in the list is the "Füllung" (at least you can buy the "assy" as an accessory and it is called "Trockenpatrone mit Füllung" and the replacement catridge is called "Füllung". So the next item could be called "Trockenpatronenfüllung",
