Abstract
A power valve for a vehicle braking system includes a main pressure chamber (4) defined between the body (1) and spool (2) and connected to the outlet (5), the spool being displaceable under an input effort to close communication between the chamber (4) and a reservoir port (8) and open communication of the chamber (4) with an inlet (7), and an auxiliary chamber (10) to which fluid pressure may be supplied through a port (11) to exert a force on the spool for reducing the pressure supplied to the outlet (5) for a given input effort applied to the spool (2).
