Abstract
This invention relates to a novel electronic system for controlling a twin-type of air dryer arrangement. Normally, the adsorption elements (DR1) and (DR2) change over their adsorptive and regenerative cycles alternately by an 'ON' signal produced by a governor (GO). In addition, in case that the compressor works continuously for a long period of time, the adsorptive and regenerative cycles are changed over whenever a predeterined time elapses. Thus, it is possible to make the entire air dryer more compact, to have less changeover operation and to use the relevant devices for much longer time.
