Product Description
The Bendix 286873 AD-2 Air Dryer Purge Valve Assembly is designed for Bendix AD-2 air dryers used in heavy-duty truck, tractor, bus, and commercial vehicle air brake systems.
The purge valve is located in the lower portion of the air dryer and opens during the purge cycle to exhaust moisture, oil residue, and other contaminants collected by the dryer. Proper purge valve operation is essential to maintaining a clean, dry compressed-air supply and helps reduce corrosion, contamination, and freeze-up within the vehicle’s air brake system.
Bendix identifies 286873 as the complete AD-2 purge valve assembly. The current service-new number is commonly listed as 286873N. If the existing purge valve can be rebuilt instead of replaced, Bendix 287053 is the corresponding AD-2 purge valve maintenance kit.
