Bendix TP-3 Tractor Protection Control Valve

The function of the Bendix TP-3 tractor protection control valve in the air brake system is crucial as it is designed to receive all pneumatic signals pertinent to the system’s operation, transmit them to the trailer, and provide protection to the tractor air supply when the connecting lines separate from the trailer. That is why Bendix manufactures this product following stringent processes to ensure the highest quality and performance.

Features & Benefits

  • Designed to be mounted behind the cab, with one delivery line from the brake valve connected to the tractor service port and another line from the trailer supply valve connected into the tractor emergency port
  • May be used in conjunction with the PP-3 trailer supply valve on pre-121 tractors and the PP-7 trailer supply valve on post-121 tractors
  • Contains a passage for trailer supply air and a service line shut off valve that it closes when the pressure from the trailer supply valve drops below 45 psi
  • Made of premium-quality materials for maximum durability
  • Manufactured in a state-of-the-art facility for guaranteed reliability and superior performance
  • Rigorously tested to ensure it fits and functions just like the original unit
