At what air pressure should the low air alarm activate?

The low air alarm is designed to alert the driver when the air pressure in the system drops to a level that could compromise the vehicle's braking capabilities. The standard activation point for the low air alarm is set at 60 psi. When the air pressure falls to this level, it indicates a potential issue with the air brake system that requires immediate attention. This is crucial for maintaining safety on the road, as a drop in air pressure can lead to loss of braking efficiency, making it essential for drivers to be aware of and respond to low air pressure warnings promptly. This activation threshold helps ensure that drivers are made aware of potential braking system failures before they become critical, allowing them to take action to either stop safely or address the issue.
