Abstract: A valve arrangement for use in a parking brake system of a commercial vehicle or trailer, includes a differential piston having a first section and a second section, wherein the second section has a smaller diameter compared to the first section, and wherein there is a fluidic connection between the first section and the second section. The arrangement includes a housing with a bore, in which the differential piston is adapted to move. The bore has at least two sections, wherein the first section corresponds to the diameter of the first section of the differential piston, and the second section corresponds to the diameter of the second section of the differential piston, and wherein a step is formed between the first section and second section of the bore. A first passage and a second passage are arranged and axially spaced in the bore, and a third passage is arranged in or next to the second section of the bore.
