Alkon AirBOSS® Control Box
The Alkon AirBOSS® Control Box brings key pneumatic functions together in one pre-assembled, factory-tested unit. By consolidating valves, fittings, plumbing, and controls, it reduces the amount of work required on the production line while giving OEMs a cleaner, more consistent approach to trailer pneumatics.
Built for Faster, More Reliable Trailer Production
Save Installation Time
Replace hours of component-by-component assembly with a ready-to-install unit. In one customer application, pneumatic installation time dropped from approximately six hours to 45 minutes.
Simplify the Build
Pre-drilled mounting points, centralized connections, and color-coded plumbing reduce added fabrication and give technicians a clear, consistent layout to follow.
Tested Before It Reaches You
Individual components are tested before assembly, and the completed control box is tested again to verify proper operation and consistent performance before shipment.
Reinforce the Quality Behind Your Brand
A more consistent pneumatic assembly helps reduce avoidable field issues and supports the reliability your customers expect from your trailers.
Configured Around Your Application
Trailer requirements vary. The AirBOSS® Control Box can be configured around your trailer’s functions and operating needs while maintaining the benefits of an integrated assembly.
Flexible Control Options
Multiple valve functions, actuation methods, suspension types, and valve formats support a range of trailer requirements.
Enclosure Options
Composite and stainless-steel enclosures provide choices for different operating environments and build needs.
Color-Coded Plumbing
Clearly identified connections help technicians make the correct hookups and simplify troubleshooting during service.
