ABSTRACT:
Air braking system of vehicles usually have a piston compressor (C) and a desiccant (D) for drying the compressor output air. The desiccant is periodically regenerated by downstream air from e.g. a reservoir (R). When a compressor is brought on load, the initial charge of air may be oil laden. The invention provides a delay mechanism to permit such initial charge of air to pass directly to exhaust.
