DESCRIPTION
The function of the AD-4
air dryer is to collect and remove
air system contaminants in solid, liquid and vapor form be-
fore they enter the brake system. It provides clean, dry air

the life of the system and reduces maintenance costs. Daily
manual draining of the reservoirs is eliminated.

air dryer consists of a desiccant cartridge and a
die cast aluminum end cover secured to a cylindrical steel
outer shell with eight cap screws and nuts. The end cover
contains a check valve assembly, a safety valve, purge valve
mechanism, a cast-in heater element with a replaceable
thermostat assembly and three threaded air connections.
The three air connections are identified with embossed
numbers and lettering. The identification and function of each
is as follows:
