DESCRIPTION

The function of the dryer reservoir module (DRM
provide heavy vehicles with an integrated vehicle air dryer,
secondary reservoir, purge reservoir, governor and a number
of the charging valve components in a module. The DRM
dryer module model covered in this Service Data Sheet is
the first to be released, see updates to this Service Data
Sheet for other models.
The DRM
dryer module includes an integrated solution air
dryer (AD-IS
®
), a reservoir (including a separate purge
reservoir section) a governor and four pressure protection
valves. These have been designed as an integrated air supply
system.
The function of the AD-IS
air system contaminants in solid, liquid and vapor form
before they enter the brake system. It provides clean, dry
air to the components of the brake system which increases
the life of the system and reduces maintenance costs. Daily
manual draining of the reservoirs is eliminated.
The function of the pressure protection valves is to both
control the order in which the components receive air from
®
the AD-IS
air dryer, and also to protect each reservoir from
a pressure loss in the other reservoir or a pressure loss in
an air accessory.
