WABCO is well-known for its robust, highly developed air processing systems. The Electrically Controlled Air Dryer has been developed to meet the increased requirements for processed system air. It shows one of the possibilities for future air processing.
The Electrically Controlled Air Dryer is controlled via the vehicle's electronic control unit (ECU). It completes WABCO's range of market leading air dryers, which also includes electronic air dryers with integrated electronic control (Electronic Air Processing Unit E-APU).
Features

Regeneration takes place from the system reservoir volume: no separate regeneration reservoir is required
Intelligent regeneration control:
Intermediate regenerations takes place during long delivery cycles
Regeneration determined by delivered air volume
