Emergency control governor
What 4 things cause low pressure flag to rise
MR below 500
Lockout magnet valve deenergised
Loss of OH
BVIC
What 4 things does BVIC control flow of air to?
MR to air brake valves and BP
Electricity to:
- EP and Rheo switches
- LP flag and LOMV
- Door circuit
Purpose of auxiliary res (2)
Charged with BP pressure
Supplies brake cylinders with air
What limitation does westcode braking system have when using air brake
Depleted aux res after several applications resulting in reduced brake efficiency
What braking system has wheel slide protection during air braking
Knorr
Triple valve 3 main jobs

Control gov bypass light and button
If PLC CB trips what indication will we have
FDCL
What does regulating valve do (2)
Works with relay valve to duplicate Eq res pressure in the brake pipe
Maintains BP at 550 when EP braking
What is relay valve
Controls flow in and out of BP
What is charge valve
Allows MR to flow to relay valve
What is variable load valve
Works with air suspension, adjusts braking depending on load
What allows 10% extra brake cyls when air braking
Restricted application limiting valve and ball and chrck valve
What is restricted application magnet valve
Prevents air and ep working together
