Title: Desicant Cartridge
Post by: Bill B on July 05, 2015, 11:52:38 am
I have a Meritor Wabco air dryer replacement cartridge #R950011 which replaces #109994.  Couple of questions...it was manufactured in 2010 and stored in original box so would it be advisable to use?  Next, I have been unable to find out if it would replace the cartridge on my Haldex dryer?
Any answer / response is appreciated.

Bill, I don't know about your specific issue, but my experience with desiccants pertains to general issues re them when it came to packaging machines for the government.
Old pkgs or opened pkgs containing desiccants were required to be "baked in an oven at around 150 degrees for eight hours to remove any moisture present in the package.
Hopefully someone else can chime in with better knowledge re your exact issue.

Bill,

Do  you have the Pure air plus system on the coach you have now? 
The Wabco R950011 I think has 39 x 1.5 threads and was used on the twin air system, along with others.  If you have the pure air plus system you need a DA33120 which has 2 1/2 X 12 threads. So it will depend on which dryer system you have.

Thanks for the replies.  I figured out it was not the same as is on my coach so found the owner of a 04 Mountain Air here in the campground and gave it to him along with several oil, air and hydraulic filters for engine and generator.  I told him they were a few years old and he should check with manufacturers to see if they had an experation date.  My father-in-law had an 03 Dutch Star and had the filters left after he traded it for his 07 Dutch Star.  Thanks again for you replies.
