Abstract
A combination includes at least: an air line disposed between a rotary union and a tire; and a tire pressure management safety valve disposed within the air line. The air line facilitates pressurized fluid transferred between the rotary union and a valve stem of the tire, to inflate the tire, and the tire pressure management safety valve includes: a valve housing providing a valve activation chamber; a fluid conduit having a downstream end and an upstream end; a check valve disposed within the valve activation chamber, the check valve responsive to pressurized fluid within the air line, at a predetermined pressure the check valve automatically precludes air transfer through the fluid conduit; and a fitting communicating with the check valve activation chamber and the valve stem of the tire. The combination further includes a tire pressure measurement sensor interacting with the check valve activation chamber and the inflated tire.
