3 When selecting a Bendix ® AD-SP ® air dryer, note this dryer is intended for servicing low-demand air systems. For example, Line Haul applications
are limited to single tandem axle trailers.
4 Tandem dryers must be matched models (i.e. two Bendix ® AD-IS ® or two Bendix ® AD-9 ® air dryers, etc.). Both dryers must be extended purge
versions.
5 There is no required compressor charge time or purge time. The operation is controlled through the Bendix ® EverFlow ® air dryer module.
6 The Bendix ® AD-9si ™ air dryer is not available in tandem or EverFlow configurations.
7 Consult Bendix Tech Team at 1-800-AIR-BRAKE (1-800-247-2725).
