DESCRIPTION

The function of both the Bendix

®

 AD-IS

®

 

(Integrated Solution 

Air Dryer)

 air dryer and reservoir system and the Bendix

®

 

AD-IS

®

 PuraGuard

®

 oil coalescing air dryer and reservoir 

system is to collect and remove air system contaminants 
in solid, liquid and aerosol form before they enter the brake 
system and to provide—as a module—heavy vehicles with 
an integrated vehicle air dryer, purge reservoir, governor 
and a number of the charging valve components in a 
module.  These components have been designed as an 
integrated air supply system. 

Both air dryer and reservoir systems provide clean, dry air 
to the components of the brake system which increases 
the life of the system and reduces maintenance costs.  
The necessity for daily manual draining of the reservoirs 
is eliminated.
