Title: Total newb air brake question
Post by: Old phart phred on August 07, 2017, 04:25:26 am
Installed new in D2 and new AD-9 dryer assembly. How often should it purge approximately?  Thanks to beam alarm website as there were no instructions on how to wire the darn thing.

The dryer will purge each time the D2 governor reaches the upper air pressure point and cycles off. The wiring for the dryer should go to a fused 12V source that's on whenever the ignition is on.

Use a 12V test light to make sure the dryer wire is hot when the key is on.

Yes once every time it hits cut out pressure. How after the air goes down to buildup pressure and then builds up is dependant on how how quick you use up the air
