DESCRIPTION

The Bendix

®

D-2

®

governor, operating in conjunction with

the unloading mechanism, automatically controls the air
pressure in the air brake or air supply system between
a maximum (cut-out) pressure and a minimum (cut-in)
pressure. The compressor runs continually while the engine
runs, but the actual compression of air is controlled by the
governor actuating the compressor unloading mechanism
which stops or starts the compression of air when the
maximum or minimum reservoir pressures are reached.

D-2

®

governors are provided with mounting holes which

allow direct mounting to the compressor or remote
mounting.

Porting consists of three reservoir ports (1/8 inch P.T.),
three unloader ports (1/8 inch P.T.) and one exhaust port
(1/8 inch P.T.).
