Level control valve unit design - GF32.31-P-4500-01B

The level control valve unit (Y36/6) is attached to the same retaining plate as the AIRmatic compressor unit (A9/1). It has a solenoid valve for each wheel (y1, y2, y3 and y4) for raising or lowering the vehicle.

The AIRmatic central reservoir charge (y5) is also installed in the valve unit.

The AIRmatic pressure sensor (B7) is located on the end face of the valve unit.

6 polyamide lines lead from the level unit to the components connected:

  1. Left front spring strut
  2. Right front spring strut
  3. Left rear spring strut
  4. Right rear spring strut
  5. AIRmatic central reservoir
