Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a careless draining by enabling a purge of an air dryer to be controlled as occasion demands by arranging a solenoid valve to an air circuit for connecting a pressure governor which controls a pressure of an air tank to a signal receiving pressure part of a purge valve part of the air dryer. SOLUTION: When a driver turns off a switch 8 in normal operation, a pressure governor 6 is operated by a specific pressure of an air tank, an air pressure is sent as a signal via a hose (b), a three-way connector 5a, and a hose (c), and a compressor 7 is unloaded. Then, a signal pressure is sent to an air dryer 1 via a solenoid valve 5, and a purge valve part 3, and water, oil or the like together with air are exhausted from an outlet 2 by opening a valve in the dryer. Then, the air dryer 1 is not decreased in a function due to storing of a drain. When the switch 8 is turned on in this case, since the solenoid valve 5 is closed and the signal pressure does not reach the air dryer 1, the drainage can be prevented.
