Abstract
A dual-circuit brake system for utility vehicles is disclosed which enables simultaneous anti-skid regulation in two brake circuits (I, II). To this end, the brake cylinders of the axle of the first brake circuit (I) that is equipped with sensors is monitored directly by pressure control valves and dependent thereon the brake cylinders of the second brake circuit (II) are monitored via relay valves. The circuits are secured from one another via a pressure control lock valve.
