Operating Tips
Compressor
The truck compressor has a major influence over the successful operation
of the TractionAir system; even a small amount of oil passing through the
air system will have an adverse effect on the performance of not only the
TractionAir pneumatics, but also the truck’s air brake system.
Electronics
TractionAir ECUs are non user-serviceable items and should only be repaired at
the factory. Care must be taken when welding near the ECU or Pressure Cell. If
possible, remove the 10 pin plug from the rear of the ECU first.
Do not tin wires with solder before inserting into screw terminals as the
wire will then loosen in the terminals over time.
Filter Assembly - TAAF8
Filter Element - TAAFE
The pneumatic system component of TractionAir G4
is designed to cope better with the ingress of oil and
other contaminants from the compressor and the truck’s
air system, but is still susceptible to blockage from
chunks of rubber and dirt coming back from the tyres.
We recommend that the filter is opened and emptied at
each service interval (six months).
Rotary Union - TADCCC & TADCHRHD
The TRT Extended Life rotator is a long service robust
unit running carbon ceramic mechanical seal facings.
This rotator minimises stand out of the wheel hub
arrangement and is ideal for most applications.
80mm long by 57mm diam.
Important: Take care when pressure washing not to
damage the rotators by forcing water into the bearings
through the seal.
