drop to the bottom of the air dryer purge valve assembly,

Air then flows into the desiccant drying bed and becomes
progressively drier as water vapor adheres to the desiccant
material in a process known as “ADSORPTION.”

material in a process known as “ADSORPTION.”
Dry air exits the desiccant cartridge through the center of
the base assembly. The air then flows to the delivery check
valve and also through an orifice into the purge reservoir.
The delivery check valve opens, supplying air to the pressure
protection valves (A) and (B), the safety valve, and also to
the reservoir port of the attached governor. The purge reservoir
fills, storing air that will be used to reactivate the desiccant
during the purge cycle.

When the air pressure reaches approximately 103 p.s.i.,
the first pressure protection valve (A) will open and air will
be supplied to the primary reservoir. When the air pressure
in the primary reservoir reaches approximately 109 p.s.i.,
