Abstract
A pneumatic system has a compressed air supply and an air spring arrangement which is pneumatically connected to the compressed air supply. The pneumatic system is for a vehicle and further has a controller for controlling the compressed air supply and the air spring arrangement. In the method for operating the pneumatic system, the air dryer and/or the air distributor module represents an overpressure volume. The overpressure volume initially has a pressure greater than a pressure in a remaining portion of the compressed air supply having at least one first air spring and an intermediate store. Compressed air is discharged from the overpressure volume into the compensation volume, accompanied by a reduction in pressure in the overpressure volume, namely, a reduction in the pressure in the air dryer. Compressed air is discharged into the first air spring of the air spring arrangement and into the intermediate store.
