Abstract

A modulator valve for an ABS system for heavy duty vehicles is disclosed. It uses non flow-through solenoid valve assemblies that simplify the machining and manufacturing costs associated with the present arrangement. This eliminates complex pilot passages and also achieves a quicker acting release of the brakes during normal service braking.
