Brake Proportioning/Combination Valve: Description and Operation

LSPV (LOAD SENSING PROPORTIONING VALVE) ASSEMBLY (IF EQUIPPED)

As shown in the figure, LSPV is included within the brake circuit, which connects the master cylinder and the rear wheel brake. It controls the
hydraulic pressure applied to the rear wheel brake according to the loaded state of the vehicle (or weight of the load), whereby preventing the rear
wheels from getting locked prematurely.
Also, it releases the above described control over the hydraulic pressure applied to the rear wheel brake, should any failure occur in the hydraulic
circuit of the front wheel brake so that the hydraulic pressure produced in the master cylinder is applied to the rear wheel brake directly to operate it.
