Air suspension

Air suspension and spare parts for it

Automotive air suspension is a type of suspension with which you can adjust the clearance of the vehicle relative to the roadway. Most often, air suspension systems are installed on premium passenger cars or on cargo vehicles and semi-trailers. It can be included in the complete set of the car or be completed independently. The main purpose of the design is to provide driving comfort and a high level of safety.

The air suspension can be mounted on MacPherson struts, elastic beam, multi-link suspension and other types of existing structures. There are three types of pneumatic system: with one, two and four circuits. Only one axle of the car is equipped with a single-circuit, two-circuit - respectively, two with the possibility of independent adjustment of the wheels and four-circuit - pneumatic supports are installed under each wheel. The latter system is the most complex and functional. Sensors and an electronic control unit are used to control it.

The main details of the system include:

• elastic pneumatic elements;
• compressor;
• receiver;
• air pipelines and valve blocks;
• body position controllers;
• ECU.

When air suspension repair is needed

During the operation of the car, the air suspension may fail. The incorrect operation of the system is evidenced by:

• vibration or noise of the compressor, its continuous operation;
• recalibration of the system, skewing of the car body;
• air leakage from pneumatic cylinders or highways;
• malfunctions of control electronics and sensors;
• slow change in ground clearance or its complete absence.

To repair the system, spare parts for air suspension are used, which allow you to restore the tightness of the air resistance, cylinders, shock absorbers and pillows. Individually, such air suspension components are cheaper than completely changing the system. But, it should be remembered that these details are very delicate and sensitive and require careful treatment.Therefore, professionals should perform work on the replacement of structural elements of pneumatics.
