Gary 05 AMB DST Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Is it leaking air or water? Have you purged the air tanks lately? Gary 05 AMB DST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill R Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 (edited) That is a Pressure Protection Valve (PPV). I replaced my with World American Part No. WAKN31000. But where is it leaking? At the airline connection? Tank Connection? Or is the PPV what's leaking? Spray some soapy water on it to see where it is leaking.

Ivylog Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Looks like the fitting is leaking where it threads into the tank. Doubt you can get a full turn so remove the airlines… push in on the ring, remove fitting, put Teflon tape on threads, and put back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bestins Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 Its leaking air. Its not leaking where it threads into tank. Looking at it, there are 3 sections-the top 2 parts are round and the bottom 6 sided like a nut. Its leaking between the second and third section.( used soapy water to find leak).

96 EVO Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 (edited) Like previous members have said, it's a pressure protection valve (PPV). When you replace it, rotate it 180deg. It's facing the wrong way. There's probably a small drain hole at the top. Should be at the bottom. Edited January 23 by 96 EVO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacwjames Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Based on the picture this must be your front tank. Each hose/tube is color coded to tell what it is for. I have a diagram for the air systems on Dynasty and Windsor, it is slightly different then yours but I think Monaco standardized. The large Red tube is for the brake pedal, the small blue is for air horn, the green is sprning relay, the silver is to rear tank, and next to it is a blue which is the emergency brake. I looked in the files section and I did not find it but it might be in a folder that I didn't check, so I attached a copy of what I had. Not sure where I got it but it is pretty darn close to my air system and most of the parts are the same. Here's a post I did when I worked on mine. First thing I did was make a set of 6 ramps so I could completely drain the air system and not have work under the rig relying on the jacks. Based on the color coding I "THINK" the valve you are trying to source is a Pressure Protection Valve but it does not look like the ones I replace. I replaced all my PPV's in 2021 along with some other components on the air system. Each one had information stamped on it, enough to be able to order replacement, some of them were hard to read until I took the part off and cleaned it. Best advice I can give you it to remove it and take it to a larger truck repair shop, AIR SYSTEM Dynasty and Windsor.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bestins Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 yes, it is the front air tank. In the last pic it is the valve to the left-with 2 lines coming out of it-a dirty blue one comes in vertically from the top, and black one vertically from bottom. So it is a pressure protection valve? Would I look for one at a big truck repair center, are these made to handle a specific air pressure? I couldn't find a name on it but there was a number 5007(I think)on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96 EVO Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I would think a truck repair center would be able to cross reference the number to a valve they have in stock. 65psi is the most common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
