Abstract

There is described compressed air system (300) and methods for vehicles, and in particular passenger service vehicles (100, 200). Such systems (300) may comprise at least one service reservoir (320) for providing compressed air to a particular vehicle system (310), and may also comprise a compressor system (330) for supplying compressed air to the service reservoir (320). The compressor system (300) may be configured to be operable between an operational state and an non-operational state based on air pressure control signals received at the compressor system. The system may also comprise a controller (380) configured to observe particular driving conditions of the vehicle, and to communicate particular air pressure control signals to the compressor system (330) based on the observed driving conditions.
