Subject:

R-12/R-14 RELAY VALVE - 10 PSI DIFFERENTIAL

OBSOLESENCE

All R-12 and R-14 relay valves which incorporate a 10 psi differential (crack pressure) were obsoleted in 1995.

The R-12 and R-14 part numbers that were affected by the obsolescence are;

102849 R-12

103137 R-14

103139 R-14

103195 R-12

103229 R-12

108490 R-12

When it is necessary to replace these valves and the 10 psi crack pressure must be maintained, it is suggested that

R-6 relay valve, part number 280243, be considered. This R-6 relay valve incorporates a 10 psi crack pressure

but does not have the anti-compound (quick exhaust) feature that is part of the R-14 relay valve.

Important: When replacing an R-12 or R-14 that is connected to four service chambers (i.e. tandem axles), it

will be necessary to use two R-6 relays (one for each axle of the tandem). This is necessary to maintain the

vehicle manufacturer’s brake application and release timing.

For additional information on the R-6, R-12 and R-14 refer to catalog pages 03-B-3, 03-B-4C to 03-B-4F

respectively.
