DESCRIPTION

The Bendix

®

 MV-3

 dash control module is a two-button,

push-pull control valve housed in a single body which includes
a dual circuit supply valve and a check valve. The MV-3

valve can duplicate the functions of any existing two or three
valve push-pull system and has the advantages of reduced
plumbing.

The MV-3

 valve body, plungers and spools are made out of

a non-metallic, non-corrosive material. All air connections
are at the back of the valve with the exception of the optional
auxiliary port as shown in Figure 1.

The MV-3

 valve provides the following functions:

1 - Tractor Protection.

2 - Trailer Service Air Control.

3 - System Park.

4 - Trailer Park Only.

5 - Trailer Charge with Tractor Spring Brakes Applied (Tractor

Park Only).

6 - Supply Reservoir Selection.

7 - Primary & Secondary Reservoir Connections.
