Commonly used in air brake systems, this valve ensures consistent air delivery without allowing pressure loss from the lower-pressure side. Inside the valve, a movable shuttle shifts position to seal off the weaker supply, preventing air from bleeding back into the system. The Bendix 278614 features standard 3/8-18 NPT female ports and is built to operate across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for year-round service. This valve is typically installed where reliable air selection is required, such as service brakes or auxiliary air circuits, and is replaced during air system maintenance when pressure consistency becomes a concern.
