How vital do you believe that a recessed tractor trailer relay valve is for your driving? It's little, and while that might may lead you to dismiss it as a minor contributing factor in an overall air brake system of a trailer. It enables the trailer to relay air pressure and helps in ensuring that the brakes operate correctly. When the relay valve is not working, the brakes of the trailer probably will not activate properly — a completely dangerous situation on the roads. This VIT is why knowing what this part does and how to maintain it is critical for safety. 

If you have ever experienced a truck driving around, pulling a trailer behind it, then this example should become quite clear. Such trucks almost always have air brakes to slow down with. The reléventil trailer brakes are however, not applied the same way directly through the brake pedal that you might think. In this case, when the driver stabs the brake pedal, it operates a compressor into action. This compressor shoots air into the truck's brake system. Then the air pressure circulates to the trailer relay valve. This vital valve limits the amount of air that can get to the brake and cause it to work properly for a longer time.

Understanding the mechanics of a trailer relay valve

The VIT Trailer Relay Valve It contains an air inlet (entrance), and air outlet (exit) and a diaphragm which shifts with the change of air pressure. So when the driver presses on the brake pedal, air that has been pressurized by the inlet pushes back on a diaphragm. When the truck driver steers, they also exhale air from their diaphragm into a valve that regulates airflow to the brake system of the trailer. It helps making the brake run in a smooth way and its full efficiency by allowing air go into it if more or fewer amounts of air is required. 

A working trailer relay valve is important to make sure that the air brake chambers on your trailer all receive equal pressure air from the main reservoir. Things like this luftbremse reléventil mean the brakes will apply evenly across all corners preventing one wheel from locking up or skidding while you are trying to drive. When all the brakes are functioning identically, this makes driving the trailer safer and also prevents skidding and dangerous braking perceptions.
