Difference between regular Air Springs and Air Springs with IHV

 

Regular air springs and air springs with Integrated Height Valve (IHV) represent two distinct approaches to achieving optimal vehicle suspension. Traditional air springs rely on an external system to control ride height, necessitating additional components and space for external valves. This setup can complicate the assembly process for truck manufacturers and increase the potential for issues related to more parts and complexity. On the other hand, air springs equipped with an Integrated Height Valve streamline this process significantly. The IHV system incorporates the valve mechanism directly within the air spring, eliminating the need for external valve components. This integration leads to a more compact design, saving valuable installation space and reducing the complexity of assembly on the truck cabin. Furthermore, the IHV system enhances the reliability of the suspension system by minimizing the number of potential failure points, offering a more straightforward, efficient solution for maintaining optimal ride levels.

The introduction of Air Springs with IHV underscores Monroe’s leadership in delivering solutions that are not only durable and safe but also innovative and practical.
