Pressure protection valve details: Air entering the supply port is blocked from flowing out the delivery port by the inlet valve, which is normally held closed by the pressure regulating spring above the piston. When sufficient air pressure builds beneath the piston, the piston will move, opening the inlet valve and allowing air to flow out the delivery port. As long as air pressure at the supply port remains above the specified closing pressure, the inlet valve will remain open. If a low air pressure condition develops, the valve closes effectively isolating unnecessary devices and reserving remaining air for vehicle braking.
