We’re excited to invite you to the upcoming MTN Maintenance Council Meeting on Wednesday, April 9, from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM CT at McAlister’s Deli in Murfreesboro.

We have a special presentation lined up that you won’t want to miss! Given the relevance of this topic, we encourage our Safety Council members to attend as well.

Air Brake System Technology Changes: Impacts to Diagnostics & Maintenance

Presented by Mike Gracey, Bendix

“This ain’t your daddy’s air dryer”—it’s a whole lot more.

With new technology reshaping the air brake systems in today’s trucks, questions are popping up:
“Where did the air governor go?”
“When do I change the air dryer cartridge?”
“What’s a delivery line unloader—and why did I think my purge valve was bad?”

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering what you’re buying, or already bought, you’re not alone. As air systems evolve, diagnostics and maintenance are changing fast.

We will be operating fleets that have new EBS technology along with ABS for years to come. New air dryer features and benefits are great, but education will be key, so you don’t down trucks because of ignorance!

Join us as Mike Gracey of Bendix, a 30-year industry veteran, breaks down what all of this means for your fleet.
