DESCRIPTION
Instead of steel or leaf springs, an air suspension systems typically consists of air spring, also known as plastic/air bags, tough rubber, and an air line system, connected to an on-board air compressor, valves, solenoids, and under electronic controls. The onboard compressor is an electric pump, used to feed air to the air bags via multiple lines. Valves play a important role in air direction control, allowing air to enter different parts of the system. In electronic systems, when the system adjusts for different driving conditions, solenoids inflate and vent the airbags by opening and closing to change the amount of air entering each airbag. An electronic control module controls the on/off switches, monitors pressure and manages ride height. Air springs are flexible and have certain amount of elasticity. The more they are compressed, the increased stiffness will be produced.
Air suspension is one of the most popular modifications that car enthusiasts do to make their vehicles stand out. The ability to have your car’s stance be adjustable at the touch of a button makes it easy to have your vehicle as low as you want. There are many questions revolving around air suspension as there are a lot of components involved in each kit. Today, we are going to look at exactly what an air suspension system is, what it is used for, and what the pros and cons are of air suspension.
An air suspension system is a suspension system that replaces your factory shocks and struts with air shocks that allow for adjustable ride height. Air suspension is available from the factory on some vehicles, but we can discuss that in a later post. For the sake of this article, we are going to focus on aftermarket air suspension systems.
