DESCRIPTION
The Bendix
®
MV-3
®
dash control module is a two-button,
push-pull control valve housed in a single body that
accommodates dual circuit supply through a double
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 - Primary & Secondary Reservoir Connections
7 - Dual Supply Reservoir Isolation via the Check Valve
