The Bendix

AD-IS

PuraGuard
®
oil coalescing air dryer
has an identical appearance to the standard AD-IS
®
air
dryer, but contains a coalescing media at the inlet of the
desiccant bed. The coalescing media provides a higher
level of oil removal over the standard AD-IS air dryer.
The AD-IS PuraGuard oil coalescing air dryer has all of
the same functions as the standard AD-IS air dryer and is
used in applications where lower oil concentration levels
are required.
Important!
When servicing, note that standard AD-IS
air dryers or air dryer cartridges may be serviced with
PuraGuard oil coalescing air dryers or cartridges, however,
PuraGuard oil coalescing air dryers or cartridges must only
be serviced with like replacements.
Note
: Unless otherwise stated in this manual, AD-IS air
dryer and reservoir systems refers to both the standard and
PuraGuard
oil coalescing air dryer and reservoir systems.
The function of the pressure protection valves is to protect
each reservoir from a pressure loss in the other reservoir or
a pressure loss in an air accessory. Each of the pressure
protection valves in the AD-IS
air dryer and reservoir
systems may have different pressure settings. These are
factory set and must not be changed or adjusted.
The air dryer and reservoir system consists of a “spin on”
desiccant cartridge secured to a base assembly. The
base assembly contains a delivery check valve assembly,

purge piston has a purge control channel drain. This
allows any condensation in this area to fl ow past a
diaphragm in the top of the purge piston and out
