Abstract
A compressed air drying system includes a forced-induction device, a compressor to which the forced-induction device is connected, a removal device that performs a loading mode operation and an unloading mode operation, a pressure regulating device that opens and closes a drain valve device using air pressure, and a check valve, which includes a body and a piston. The body has a first port connected to the compressor, a second port connected to the removal device, and a third port connected to the pressure regulating device. The piston is slidably arranged in the body. The hardness of the material of a slidable-contact portion of the body that slidably contacts the piston is different from the hardness of the material for the piston.
