SV1468
Leveling Valve
Bendix

The ride height management device provides automatic control of air pressure in the suspension system to maintain level stance across varying loads and road conditions. This leveling control device adjusts height by modulating air pressure to the suspension chambers, contributing to safer handling, even tire wear, and consistent load distribution. With VMRS code 016-008-023, it is categorized within the suspension and leveling subsystem, enabling precise diagnostics and service references. Cross references are not listed, so rely on standard interchange data for fitment and installation. Category context 41351 places this component in the suspension subsystem family. Typical applications include heavy duty trucks and trailers equipped with air suspension, where payload changes, road irregularities, and weather conditions demand automatic height correction for optimal ride quality and stability. Installation considerations include ensuring compatible valve connections, proper air lines routing, and secure mounting to maintain correct geometry under dynamic loading. The device plays a crucial role in vehicle stability, tire longevity, and fuel efficiency by maintaining consistent ride height across duty cycles.
