Abstract

A drying apparatus housing head for compressed air is connected to a housing wherein a diaphragm filter includes an inlet for humid compressed air and an outlet for dried compressed air. The inlet transitions into an inner pipe surrounded by a housing section. The outlet transitions into a ring-shaped chamber formed between an outer side of the inner pipe and an inner side of the housing. A valve ring guide of a main body surrounds the inner pipe and is held immovably, and a ring-shaped rolling diaphragm is arranged in the chamber, held at the outer side thereof and connected at the inner side thereof to a valve ring which surrounds the valve ring guide and moves along a longitudinal axis. The valve ring guide has a duct through which dry compressed air is conducted in the direction of the diaphragm filter and is closed off by the valve ring.
