FULL AIR SUSPENSION:
VB-FULLAIR 2C REAR AXLE
Full air suspension is an automatic, adjustable solution to a suspension problem where the existing leaf or coil spring suspension is replaced by a full air suspension system. This system includes air springs, shock absorbers, height sensors, a compressor and an electronic control unit (VB-ASCU).
The air suspension system filters out unevenness in the road surface, improving ride comfort.
While driving, the vehicle will constantly remain at the ride height set by VB-Airsuspension during installation.
The standard ride height is determined during the development of the air suspension and is fixed.
The ride height is the ideal height for comfort and stability. The driveability and stability of the vehicle are improved, which in turn increases safety. When the vehicle is at a standstill (in some cases with the handbrake on), the access/loading platform height can be increased and decreased to comfortably enter and exit the vehicle and for goods to be conveniently loaded and unloaded.
VB-FULLAIR 2C REAR AXLE
VB-FullAir 2C is a complete air suspension system on the rear axle of the vehicle. 2C or 2-Corner indicates that two height sensors are fitted. The VB-FullAir 2C system comes with one of the remote controls shown below. You can use our deluxe remote control (VB-Remote control) to easily control the various functions of the system.

AVAILABLE OPTIONS FOR VB-FULLAIR 2C
EMERGENCY VALVE KIT
The VB-FullAir system can be pressurised by means of filling valves in the event of a possible electronic failure or a defect in the compressor. The vehicle can be brought up to driving height again by means of an external air supply so that the journey can be continued.
'EXTRA TIME' MODULE
This module in VB-ASCU ensures that the air suspension remains active for one hour after the ignition is switched off. The vehicle's ignition can therefore be switched off, while all the functions of the air suspension remain active.
ADDITIONAL SWITCH
This is an additional switch that allows the high/low function of the air suspension to be controlled from a different location in the vehicle, for example at the rear door. The advantage of this is that the driver does not have to walk to the cab to operate the air suspension.
