DID YOU KNOW THAT THE AIR DRYER CAN AFFECT THE FUEL CONSUMPTION?

November 23, 2020

The energy consumption of the compressor can involve a quite important percentage of the total energy generated by the engine.

The air dryer plays a key role during the operation control of the compressor.

This valve has an integrated pressure regulator, which is responsible for determining when the compressor works depending on the pressure of the compressed air stored in the tanks. The compressor will only start working when the pressure is low in these tanks.

Good maintenance of the air dryer makes it possible to optimise the operation of the vehicle's pneumatic system and ensure fuel savings throughout the year.
