AIR LOSS & BRAKE PROTECTION
WARNING:
Under no circumstances should the
protection valve be tampered with.
If there is a loss of air from the air suspension, the
braking system should maintain a constant safe pressure
of 6.0bar (87psi) by means of a protection valve in the
system, ahead of the air suspension reservoir.
A supply pressure of over 6.0bar is generally required to
open this valve and allow air through to the air suspension.
