The actual regeneration of the desiccant drying bed begins
as dry air from the purge volume flows through the purge
orifice into the desiccant bed. Pressurized air from the
purge volume expands after passing through the purge
orifice; its pressure lowers and its volume increases. The
flow of dry air through the drying bed regenerates the
desiccant material by removing any water vapor adhering
to it. Approximately 40 seconds are required for the entire
contents of the purge volume of a Bendix
dryer to flow through the desiccant drying bed. This time
will increase if the dryer is fitted with an extended purge
reservoir.

The delivery check valve assembly prevents air pressure
in the brake system from returning to the air dryer during
the purge cycle. After the purge cycle is complete, the air
dryer is ready for the next charge cycle to begin.
