Development Of An Electronically Controlled Air Suspension System For Passenger Cars

Improved technology, including the application of electronic components, led to the development of a new generation of air suspension systems for passenger cars. These systems have now been introduced into the marketplace. The reasons for air suspension systems, the design criteria of their components and their control will be described. Details will be given of the air supply-unit compressor + air dryer), of the air distribution components (pipes, valves) and control components sensors, electronic control unit).
