A pneumatic clutch actuator includes an actuator housing, a piston assembly, a bearing carrier, and a locking element. The piston assembly is disposed within the actuator housing and is movable between a first position and a second position. The piston assembly has a piston head, an elongate member extending from the piston head, and a lock ring coupled to the elongate member. The bearing carrier supports a bearing and is slidably disposed on a portion of the actuator housing. The locking element is operatively connected to the piston assembly and engages the bearing carrier to adjust a total length of the piston assembly as the piston assembly moves from the second position towards the first position to compensate for wear of the clutch assembly.

A position dependent valve device () for a control cylinder () includes at least one channel () formed in one of a wall of a cylinder housing () of the control cylinder () and a wall of a internal piston () disposed in the cylinder housing () and a seal () including a flexible member adapted to be disposed in a groove in the other one of the wall of the cylinder housing () and the wall of the piston (), the seal () cooperating with the at least one channel () when the piston () is in a defined position to allow airflow past the piston () and cooperating with one of the cylinder housing () and the piston () when the piston () is in a position outside the defined position to prevent airflow past the piston ().
