    I don't know how to thank you, sir! You nailed this extraordinary air brake relay video down to the science. Excellent devery style and methods to my mind's taste buds. I was blind about this concept, but you made me see! Once again, thank you and may God bless you!

    very nice video cleared up the lag issues i was concerned about in air brakes as well as where the sound is coming from when air is released out the exhaust port when you let off the brake pedal as well as the brake button/throttle's on dash. Its this simple relay component that i over looked. The relay is an important components :)

    One misconception people have about airbrakes is that "Air presure" activates the brakes. As a matter of fact, it is the other way round.
    By default, the beakes in an airbrake system are already activated without airpresure. Cos the brake actuator is actually powered by a set of very powerful springs.
    So when you start your engine, airpresure build up to the desired guage and when you release the parking brakes, air presure goes into the actuator and releases the brakes. and that's when you can move the vehicle.
    Now, what happens when you apply the service brake, is that you are releasing air presure from the actuator which in turn allows the springs to activate the brakes.

    • @softwarephil1709
      @softwarephil1709 4 місяці тому +1

      I’m sorry, but that’s incorrect. You are right that the parking/emergency brake is applied by spring pressure and held off by air pressure. That’s why it is called a “spring brake.” But the service brakes work the other way: they are held off by springs and applied by air pressure. Loss of air pressure will stop the vehicle because of the parking brakes, but air pressure is needed to operate the service brakes. There is a good series of videos by Bendix about this.
      Railroad trains apply air pressure down the brake line to release the brakes (and charge a reservoir on each car), and they reduce the brake line pressure to apply brakes.

  • @williampatrickfagan7590
    @williampatrickfagan7590 Рік тому

    Let it be noted
    that air brakes are designed to fail safe.
    IE if NO air is available ( burst hose) the spring will apply the brakes.
    There is also the dead man's brake.
    That is a brake that can apply brakes to the trailer only if it is Jackknifing. Usually fitted to specialist vehicles such as recovery trucks.
