What is the normal range for a truck's air pressure gauge?
1 Answers
Generally, the normal range for a truck's instrument air pressure gauge is 6Bar-8Bar. The air pressure gauge indicates the air pressure level, which is crucial, so it's important to check it carefully before driving. Below are the key points to note for each zone of the air pressure gauge: If the air pressure gauge needle is in the 0~4 alarm zone, the air pressure is too low, and the vehicle should not be driven. Once the air pressure gauge needle reaches the starting pressure of 6.5, the vehicle can be driven normally. When the air pressure gauge needle enters the 9~12 alarm zone, the vehicle's braking system is faulty, and the vehicle should not be driven. Specific considerations for adjusting truck tire pressure: Special conditions: In deserts or muddy terrain, it is necessary to significantly reduce tire pressure, as lowering the pressure increases the tire's contact area, reduces pressure, and decreases the chance of getting stuck. Frequent highway driving: To prevent standing waves in the tires, the tire pressure can be slightly increased. Winter and summer: In winter, tire pressure can be slightly higher, while in summer, it can be slightly lower to prevent blowouts due to high temperatures. Tire pressure is also related to load, as the weight distribution of the vehicle varies. Therefore, the recommended tire pressure values for front tires, rear tires, half-load, and full-load conditions will differ. Additionally, front tires generally require slightly lower pressure than rear tires.
