Abstract

The invention relates to a unit for a pneumatic brake system for a utility vehicle, which has a valve block into which magnet valves are inserted. To secure the magnet valves on the valve block, the unit includes a retaining plate which is secured to the valve block and which has spring elements integral with it the retaining plate presses the magnet valves into valve receptacles of the valve block. The unit has the advantage that the retaining plate balances out tolerances in the manufacture of the valve block and the production of the magnet valves. In a further feature, the unit mounts pressure sensors on the valve block in a same manner as the magnet valves.
