DESCRIPTION

The Bendix

®

 M-40QR

 (quick release) and M-40HF

 (high 

flow) pressure modulator valves (PMVs) are high-capacity, 

on/off air valves that incorporate a pair of electrical 

solenoids for control.  

See Figure 1. 

The solenoids provide 

the electro-pneumatic interface between the vehicle’s 

electronic control system and the air brake system.  For 

example, the PMV is used to control the braking function 

of service actuators during antilock activity.

modulator valves 

manufactured after February 2014, 

contain two parallel ribs on each side of 

the Supply and Delivery ports as shown 

here.  These ribs identify these modulators 

as a genuine Bendix

 product.  If the OE 

or Service New valve was manufactured 

after this date and does not contain these 

ribs, it is not a genuine Bendix
