AD-1
 AIR DRYER
The housing assembly consists of two cylindrical steel
stampings welded together. For piping convenience, two inlet
ports, one reservoir port and one purge volume port are
provided in the AD-2
 air dryer. The side outlet port of  the
AD-2
 air dryer incorporates an integral single check valve
with the top port used for the addition of  purge volume.
(Refer to Figure 1)
A safety valve mounted in the housing assembly protects
against excessive pressure build-up within the housing.
The desiccant sealing plate assembly is located mid-way
in the housing assembly and houses a replaceable ball-type
single check. Also located in the plate assembly is the purge
orifice.
The desiccant cartridge and aluminum oil separator filter
are removable and comprise a complete serviceable unit.
The desiccant beads, which are referred to as the “drying
bed”, are a drying substance that has the unique property
of  exposing a tremendous surface area in proportion to its
bulk. One pound of the desiccant beads has about two
million square feet of adsorptive area made up of a large
number of submicroscopic cavities in each bead. Each
desiccant bead adsorbs or collects moisture.
