BRAKE SYSTEM IRAB 1

Lecturer( E)
SUB SYSTEM:

• Independent Brake System


• Automatic Brake System
a) Brake Pipe System
b) Proportionate Brake System
c) Feed Pipe System
SALIENT FEATURES OF IRAB BRAKE SYSTEM

1. The loco brakes can be applied with any desired pressure


independently...
2. All air brake valves have self lapping arrangements.

3. Loco brake can be applied by automatic brake valve (A9)

4. Shortest braking distance is possible during emergency


brake application.
5. Suitable for MU operation.

6. Emergency brake application is possible from any loco


coupled together.
VALVES USED & THEIR FUNCTION

SL. DESCRIPTION PURPOSE


1.A9. Automatic Valve Brake application for Loco as well as Formations
2.SA 9 Ind. Brake Valve Brake Application for Loco only.
3. MU – 2B M.U. Operation
4. F 1 – Selector M.U. Operation

5. C2 W. or AddlC2Valve Feeding B. P. Pressure to the formation

6. 24 A. Double Check This will allow only one operation at a time.


Valve

7. C3W. Distributor Valve Proportionate Brake application during A9 application.

8. C2. Relay Valve For Locomotive Brake.

9. Pressur Switch Loco will be brought to idle during A9 emergency


application.
10. D1. Emergency Valve For Emergency brake application.

11. D1. Pilot air valve During Dynamic brake Loco brake
will be released.

12. Pressure Limiting Pilot air to C2. – Relay is Limiting


Valve to 1.8 kg / Cm2

13. M. R. Safety Valve When M. R. Pressure goes


(Main Reservoir) beyond 10.5 kg This valve will
function.
14. Duplex Check Valve It will not allow MR equalising pipe
Set at 5 kg / Cm2 Air to return back to MR

15. D 24 – Feed Valve To maintain Feed pipe Pr at 6 kg /


Cm2.
