The displacement reservoir (305 cu. in.) provides the required operating
volume to develop the proper relation of pressure in control pipe 16 for any
brake pipe reduction. The control valve operates to admit air to or exhaust air
from this reservoir, the application and release rates being controlled by chokes 8
and 8 in the control valve pipe bracket. When a brake application is made the
diaphragm is deflected, increasing the volume so that the initial rate of pressure

These two volumes are combined in one reservoir. The larger volume is
the Equalizing Reservoir (3000 cu. in.) which is, in effect, an enlargement of the
chamber above the equalizing piston of the automatic brake valve, providing
pipe volume underneath. The smaller volume is the Reduction Limiting Reser-
voir (200 cu. in.) which the equalizing reservoir equalizes at the beginning of a
brake application from First Service position of the brake valve and also during
a service portion application if the rotair valve is set for long train (“FRGT”)
operation. The pipe connections, 5 for the equalizing reservoir and 22 for the
reduction limiting reservoir, are plainly marked and are connected to respec-
tively marked 3/3" pipe connections on the brake valve pipe bracket.

This type of filter consists of a cover, a dirt chamber, and a baffle portion
from which the filter unit is supported. The cover is fitted with unions and two
tapped lugs for supporting brackets. A raised arrow cast on the top indicates
direction of the air flow. The baffle has a spiral rib which imparts a swirling
movement to the air flow, which aids in removing dirt and moisture and de-
positing it in the dirt chamber. Two pipe taps in the dirt chamber provide
that the drain cock may be placed either at the side or bottom and the other
tap plugged.

Application
To make a brake application, move the brake valve handle to the right/——
the farther the movement the greater the amount of application up to maximum
in the full self-lapping notch. As the handle is moved to the right the cam 254
moves dog 229, pusher 886 and attached lever 888, the ends of which are posi-
tioned on inlet valve 815 and exhaust valve 829. Spring pressure plus air pres-
sure acting to hold the inlet valve closed is stronger than the spring pressure
acting to hold the exhaust valve open; therefore, the first movement of the
handle cam to move the floating lever causes the exhaust valve 829 to close,
cutting off the brake valve exhaust Ex. Further movement of the brake valve
handle to the right causes additional movement of the floating lever, which now
fulcrums on the closed exhaust valve and opens the inlet valve, allowing main
reservoir air to flow into the cavity of the brake valve and thence through the
As air pressure builds up in the brake valve cavity it acts upon the spring
loaded piston 822 which forms the exhaust valve seat, and moves the piston
and exhaust valve 829 against the force of the regulating spring 821, the exhaust
valve thus remaining closed. The exhaust valve end of the floating lever 888
moves with the exhaust valve and piston until the regulating spring 821 is com-
pressed sufficiently to balance the cam pressure on the lever after which the
application valve end of the lever moves away from the inlet valve, which is
then closed by its spring 816. In this manner the self-lapping unit operates to
As the brake valve handle is moved toward release position, handle cam 254
moves away from the floating lever stem 886 of the self-lapping unit. The lever
888 then pivots on the closed inlet valve 815 and the release valve spring 828
moves the release valve 829 away from its seat, allowing control pipe air to
flow to atmosphere through the brake valve exhaust port Ex. If the brake valve
handle is moved only part way toward release, control pipe pressure in the brake
valve cavity and acting on the piston type exhaust valve seat 822 will be par-
tially reduced and the regulating spring 821 will move the seat into contact
with the release valve and prevent further flow of air from the control pipe.
With the brake valve handle in full Release position, the handle cam 254 is
moved away from the floating lever and the exhaust valve spring holds its valve
829 open to vent all air pressure from the control pipe. Thus control pipe pres-

Timing valve 121, Section B-B, provides a split service reduction of brake
piston 112 and slide valve 114 are moved to application position. In this posi-
tion slide valve 114 connects the equalizing reservoir air and the equalizing
piston chamber air to the reduction limiting reservoir and to exhaust through
passage 18. A choke in the slide valve permits the reduction of air in the
cation is made piston 112 and slide valve 114 are moved to application position.
Air from the first suppression reservoir (rotair valve in Freight position) is
connected to the timing valve chamber around diaphragm nut 126' and the
timing choke. This deflects the diaphragm 124 which seats timing valve 121
and prevents the flow of equalizing reservoir air to exhaust, thus the equalizing
reservoir air reduces into the reduction limiting reservoir and limits the initial
brake pipe reduction. Timing valve 121 is opened when the air pressure in the
first suppression reservoir and in the chamber around diaphragm nut 126‘ has
reduced sufficiently through the timing choke. The combined volumes of the
equalizing reservoir and reduction limiting reservoir then flow past the timing valve
121 to passage 18, to provide a full service reduction. \Vith the brake valve in

position by a car seal through slots in the handle 188 and body cap to prevent
unauthorized opening. The handle is provided with a spring latch 18.9 which
requires a pause in mid-position when moving the cock handle from one position
to another. In turning the cook the handle engages a lug which requires the

The purpose of the umbrella shaped check valve 5 is to hold in the dirt

body portion 2 has a machined seat against which the check valve 8 seats when
a heavy reduction in pressure occurs above it, such as that during an emergency
application, thereby shutting off communication between the dirt chamber and
the dirt collector outlet. The check valve 5 is so designed and placed on the
valve stem as to permit of a rocking motion whereby any fine dust which may
collect on top of the check valve will be shaken off into the dirt chamber.

The diaphragms are located centrally on the body between rings 71, 67,
63 and 59, which are doweled to each other so that the diaphragms form a stack
in which the central bolt engages nut 40 on the large diaphragm assembly, through
which spring 42 exerts its release tension on the complete diaphragm stack.
Intermediate and large diaphragm rings 71, 63 and 67 are drilled for port con-
nections to the chambers formed between the diaphragms. There are three

diaphragm chambers which provide direct release of air from the chambers.
The magnet bracket includes three magnets: namely, High Speed (H.S.)
Medium Speed (M.S.) and Low Speed (L.S.), the coil of each magnet being
wired to terminal blocks 126 and 145 equipped with plug contacts 146. Each
magnet has an armature stem 154 which controls the position of double-beat
magnet valve 161 as the magnet coils are energized or de-energized by the speed
governor equipment in accordance with changes in train speed. These magnet valves
thereby are operated to establish connection from the control valve to one of
the diaphragms, 88, 68, 64, and 60. The areas of diaphragms 68, 64, and 60

the piston is moved by pressure changes. One end of the lever 48 pivots on
stem 22 and controls operation of exhaust valve stem 22 and the latter, in turn,
of exhaust valve piston 25 and exhaust valve 28 to open and close the brake

application pilot valve 82 and application piston 80, to admit main reservoir
The application pilot valve 82 opens and closes to control small pressure

which makes the valve quickly responsive to light application pressure exerted
by stem 29.
The K-3-B switch portion, Fig. 37, is applied to the pipe bracket of the
FS-1864 relay valve and wired in the battery circuit to the relay panel. It

effective only with application pressure of low value, it being nullified for
cylinder pressure to relay pipe 16 pressure for all applications above this value.
This is done by the Inshot Valve Portion which, at the start of an application,
permits direct flow to all diaphragm chambers until seven pounds build-up is

operates the relay portion to provide a low brake cylinder pressure, sufficient
to overcome brake rigging resistance and apply the shoes to the wheels. The
inshot valve portion then cuts off the direct flow to all diaphragm chambers
The Inshot Valve Portion, Section A-A, Fig. 37, consists of a diaphragm 85,
piston 84 with spring 88. The spring normally holds the piston and diaphragm
against the stem of a supply valve 9.2, which is thus held unseated against the
tension of lower spring 94, permitting flow of air to the diaphragm stack. A
pressure of seven pounds compresses the spring and deflects the diaphragm
sufficiently to permit lower spring 94 to seat the supply valve, cutting ofi the

When inshot pressure exceeds seven pounds, the diaphragni 85 will be deflected
further, moving piston 84 to engage the stem and unseat the exhaust valve 98,
which will open the diaphragm stack to the strainer protected exhaust 82. After
the excess pressure is removed, the diaphragm will return to its cut-off position,

B-3-B Emergency-Brake Valve, E-3 Brake Application
As shown, its brake pipe opening is connected to the side connection of the E-3
brake application valve. The E-3 brake application valve is connected to the
brake pipe so that normally, brake pipe air flows beneath the outer area of
piston valve 8, thence through the small port in this valve to the spring chamber,
thence out the side connection to the emergency-brake valve. With air pressures
equal on both faces of the valve 8, the force of spring 5 holds the valve seated,
cord or otherwise, the handle lever unseats valve 8 and permits the air to escape
from the emergency-brake valve pipe faster than it is supplied through the port
in the piston valve 8 of the E-3 brake application valve. Consequently, the
pressure above the piston valve is quickly reduced and the greater brake pipe
pressure on its outer area unseats the valve and makes a large direct opening
from the brake pipe to the atmosphere, which permits brake pipe air to escape
The piston valve 8 of the brake application valve is fitted with packing
ring 4, felt swab 18, which is supported by expander 19, felt oil retainer 17,
which is sewed in the piston recess, felt strainer 20 and strainer plate 21. The
swab and oil retainer keep the cylinder wall well lubricated while the strainer
prevents passage of dirt and clogging of the choke in the piston. These
measures are designed to prevent accumulation of dirt on the piston and to keep
the piston valve free in its cylinder so that it positively opens and closes when
The brake cylinders are located on the locomotive trucks and connected

air from the main reservoir and pipe connection 9 fiows past charging valve 17
When an emergency brake application occurs air from the D-24 control
valve flows through pipe connection 10 to the top of diaphragm 10, moving the
diaphragm and diaphragm follower 5 downward. This first seats charging valve
17 to cut off main reservoir charging air and further movement unseats supply
valve 15 so that the air from the charged volume reservoir and pipe connection

devices. -
This valve, consists of upper housing 2 which is bolted to bracket 29, and
lower case 8 which is bolted to the bottom of housing 2 and supports slip bushmg
5 in which moves piston 9. The lower case is sealed to the upper housing by
gasket 13. The piston shank is guided by an extension on the lower end of the
under side of piston 9 when the pressure differential across the piston becomes
great enough. Drilled ports through the piston stem and the piston between
the gasket 11 and the piston ring provide a stabilizing passage. Flow through
this passage and leakage past the ring are limited by gasket 11 when it seals
65
on its seat. The stabilizing passage and a drilled port in the bushing furnishes
seating pins firmly secured to the piston project upward through drilled passages
in housing 2 and are shouldered at two points to engage valves 24 and 21. The
latter seats on a bushing pressed into a large exhaust core in the body, and the
former seats on a small seat formed on the upper side of valve assembly 21 .
Spring 20, guided in a bushing inclosed in cap 4, urges both valves t-o their seats.
As the piston moves upward, the unseating pins first lift valve 24 off its
seat and then valve 21 off its seat, exposing a very large exhaust port. Strainer
27 prevents the entrance of large particles of foreign material, and the level of
the entrance to the drilled passages for the unseating pins is high enough so
that loose water collected in chamber A will flow back into the pipe before it
The piston stem is drilled out to receive felt packing 87 which is saturated
with light oil. Breathing through a small port in the stem, changes of pressure
in chamber C supply a film of lubricant for the stem fit with the bushing over
Brake pipe air entering the KM vent valve flows through strainer 27 into
chamber A surrounding the discharge valves and above piston 9. The latter
is moved downward until gasket 11 seals on its seat. Air flows through
brake pipe pressure at a slow enough rate to afford adequate protection against
overcharge.
Valves 24 and 21 are held tightly to their seats by the combined load of
brake pipe vent valve. This moves piston 9 upward to the position where
the upper shoulders and pins 9a engage valve 24. Further movement is pre-
vented by the load, on this valve, resulting from the combination of brake pipe
pressure acting on the seat area and the tension of spring 20. So long as a
service rate of brake pipe reduction is not materially exceeded, the capacity of

When an emergency rate brake pipe reduction occurs at the KM Vent

the load of the tension of spring 20 and the brake pipe pressure on the seat
area. As soon as valve 24 is unseated, brake pipe air fiows through the opened
exhaust port, and greatly increases the rate of brake pipe reduction. The added
increase in pressure differential across the piston creates the force necessary to
cause the lower shoulders on the pins 9a to pick up and unseat large exhaust
valve 21 . Thus the vent valve responds to the comparatively light differential
required to lift a valve of small diameter but almost instantly develops a very
large venting capacity. When fully open these two valves provide an exhaust

ports a and 6 allow chamber C to bleed down until spring 20 and the weight
of the operating parts can force both exhaust valves to their seats, closing the

The No. 4-B vent valve located in a branch -pipe of the brake pipe insures
Fig. 48 shows a sectional assembly view of the No. 4-B brake pipe
vent valve. This device comprises an emergency piston 2, with its slide valve 8,
a quick action valve 4 and quick action piston 5, and an actuating volume called
the quick action chamber. Strainer 87 protects the piston and slide valve
from dirt.
Brake pipe air entering the vent valve flows through passage a to chamber E
at the left of quick action valve 4 and thence through strainer 87 and passage b
to chamber A above the emergency piston 2, forcing the piston to its lowest
position. This opens charging port c in the piston bush, permitting brake pipe
air to flow past ball check valve 6 and through passage c-2 to the slide valve
chamber B and thence through passage d to the quick. action chamber, charging
67
The reduction in brake pipe pressure during a service application takes
place at the vent valve also, and the air flows froin the piston chamber A,
the brake pipe. The pressures on the emergency piston 2 are unbalanced and
it moves upward until its piston stop .12 strikes the cap where spring 11 prevents
further travel of the piston. The charging port 0 is now closed by the piston
and the slide valve chamber B is connected through the slide valve port h to
the exhaust passage e. This permits quick action chamber pressure to reduce
at the same rate as the brake pipe pressure, thus preventing operation of the
quick action valve during service applications. (When the brakes are released,
reduction also occurs at the vent valve. With the sudden pressure drop in
chamber A, the higher quick action chamber pressure in chamber B forces the
piston upward, compressing spring 11, and carrying slide valve 6 to its limit of
travel, which uncovers port 1‘. Quick action chamber air in chamber B then flows
through passage 1‘ to the outer face of quick action piston 5, and since there is no air
pressure on the opposite face of the piston, it is moved to- left, unseating quick
action valve 4. This creates a direct opening from chamber E to the atmosphere
and accomplishes a rapid venting of brake pipe air from passage a and the brake
A small vent port through the quick action piston allows quick action
chamber air to bleed down until spring 21 can force both the valve and piston to
their normal position, thus closing the outlet to the atmosphere and permitting
the brake pipe (and quick action chamber) to be recharged when desired, as
already explained.

from the positive side of the battery, terminal 37, contact B6—B8 to indicating
lamp 20 and through terminal 38 to the negative side of the battery. This
contact A3-A1 closed, and it being assumed that the K-8 switch is closed, battery
current will flow from terminal 45 through contact A3-A1, resistor 9, the lower
coil of relay 6, contact A2-AZ of relay 61% and terminal 38 to the negative side
of the battery. Relay 6, therefore, assumes the energized position and, with its
contact A4-A3 closed, battery current will flow from terminal 45 through this
contact and contact B3-B4 of relay 6M to the low speed magnet L of the FS-1864
relay valve, which provides for the development of 40% maximum braking
pressure.
With relay 5 energized from the generator, battery current is also supplied
through contact A3-A1 of relay 5, the lower coil of relay 5, resistor 12, contact
B6-B5 of relay 6, contact A3/ll of relay 6114 and terminal 38 to the negative

becomes closed. The closing of this contact places a short circuit around relay
current flow from the battery to the desired amount. When relay 6 assumes
the de-energized position, its contacts assume the lower position. The opening
of contact A4-A3 de-energizes the low speed magnet L of the FS-1864 relay
contact B4-B3 removes the short circuit around a portion of resistor 8L, thus
increasing the amount of resistance in series with relay 2L. This increase in
resistance in series with the relay reduces the current through the relay to such
an extent that a slight reduction in speed of the locomotive will cause relay 2L to
momentarily in the upper coil of this relay which causes current to flow to the
lower coil of relay 3L. This current flow adds sufficient additional force to
flow through relay 2M to cause it to assume the energized position, thus closing
its contact B2—B3. The closing of this contact causes battery current to flow
from terminal 45 through contact B3-B3 of relay 2M, resistor 10, lower coil of
76
relay 6M, and terminal 38 to the negative side of the battery. Relay 6M then
becomes energized. Induced voltage from the upper coil of relay 6M acts on
relay 2M to insure positive closing of its contact as explained for relays 6 and
2L. Battery current now fl.ows through contact A6-A5 of relay 6M and terminal
40 to energize the medium speed magnet M of the FS-1864 relay valve, thus
open, which increases the amount of resistance in series with relay 2M, thus
insuring that this relay will assume the de-energized position if the speed is
The closing of its contact B2-B3 completes the circuit from resistor 9 through
the lower coil of relay 6 and contact B2-B3 of relay 2H to the negative side of
the battery. Thus relay 6 again assumes the energized position. Contact C4-C3
of relay 6 being closed, battery current will flow through contacts A6-A5 of relay
6M and C4-C3 of relay 6 to the high speed magnet H of the FS-1864 relay
valve. With both the medium and high speed magnets of the FS-1864 relay
of relay 6114 has now functioned to insure that the induced voltage from relay 6
will now act on relay 2H rather than on relay 2L as occurred at the lower speed.
When running at high speed and a brake application reduces the speed below
65 m.p.h., the reduced current flowing through the coil of relay 2H causes it to
assume the de-energized position, thus opening its contact B2-B3. This de-
energizes relay 6, thus opening its contact B2-B3. This de-energizes relay 6,
thus opening its contact C4-C3 and de-energizing the high speed magnet H of
the FS-1864 relay valve. Thus, only the medium speed magnet M is energized
energized, its contact B2-B3 opening the circuit of relay 6M. This relay in

a release insuring valve 150 which is shown open on Fig 58. Chamber F on
one face of diaphragm 146 of this valve is connected to brake pipe air through
passage 1a, and chamber M on the other face of the diaphragm is connected
to auxiliary reservoir air through passage 5 and a choke. Thus, as long as brake
pipe pressure does not substantially exceed auxiliary reservoir pressure, spring
151 keeps valve 150 seated, closing the connection between chamber M and
passage 7. In service position of the service slide valve, Fig. 59, passage 7,

fail to move to release position when the brake pipe pressure exceeds auxiliary
reservoir pressure by more than 2 pounds, the greater brake pipe pressure in
chamber F overcomes release insuring spring 151, deflects diaphragm 146 and
unseats valve 150, Fig. 58, connecting auxiliary reservoir air from chamber M
to passage 7, thence to exhaust cavity A, Fig. 59. This reduces auxiliary reser-
voir pressure until brake pipe pressure has obtained a sufficient excess to move
the service piston to Release position. In Release position, Fig. 58, the slide

In this position, Fig. 58, release interlock slide valve 127 cuts off cavity Z
chamber A on the face of service piston 94 so that service slide valve 102 remains
in release position, and the service piston and graduating valve 108 return to
release position where slide valve port E connects auxiliary reservoir air from
slide valve chamber C to passage 18 and chamber K on the spring side of release
piston 110. With auxiliary reservoir air also present in chamber D on the
opposite face of the piston, spring‘120 holds the piston and slide valve 114 in
Release position where the cavity connects the displacement reservoir passage

Brake pipe cut-off valve 151 is balanced in emergency position of the brake
valve by venting of the air from both ends of the cut-off valve piston. Air from

cation slide valve 114 to join the air from the top of cut-off valve 151 in passage

Thus spring 155 holds the cut-off valve unseated which will permit recharging

resulting movement of this piston unseats vent valve 41, opening a large and

brake pipe air causes an emergency reduction rate of brake pipe pressure to

Fig. 54). The armatures of the No. 21-B magnet are pulled down against spring
pressure beneath the valves; release magnet valve 62 is seated, closing off the
straight air pipe exhaust passage as in the magnet bracket, and application
in the straight air pipe it acts on the release diaphragm in opposition to the con-

the air pressure acting on these diaphragms becomes balanced, spring 23 moves

spring 8-5a closes application magnet valve 34 of the No. 21-B magnet; spring 24
(Rel.) of the master controller remains closed, energizing the release wire and
21-B release magnet, holding release magnet valve 62 seated, retaining the
pressure in the straight air pipe approximately equal to that in the control pipe.
If pressure in the control pipe is increased by further brake valve handle move-
ment, straight air pipe pressure is increased an equal amount by the application
The straight air pipe also connects to connection 8 of the control valve,
Fig. 67. Thus air from the 21-B magnet valve flows through pipe 8, passage 8
through a cavity in slide valve 226 and passage 8a to the top of the double check
valve 25%. This seats lower check valve 252 sealing off passage 8 which is
open through the cavity of release slide valve 114 to exhaust passage 10, and
unseats upper check valve 25%, so that air from the straight air pipe flows
through passages 28, 36‘ and 16 to the relay valve (see relay valve operation).

As the brake valve is moved toward running position, cam 254 moves away
from floating lever 883 of the self-lapping unit. The lever then pivots on closed
inlet valve 815 and discharge valve spring 828 moves discharge valve 829 away
from its seat, allowing control pipe 11 air to flow to atmosphere through the
brake valve exhaust port. If the brake valve handle is moved only part way
toward running, control pipe pressure in the brake valve cavity Y and acting
on the piston type discharge valve seat 822 will be partially reduced and regu-
lating spring 821 will move the seat into contact with the discharge valve and
prevent further flow of air from the control pipe. With the brake valve handle
in running position, cam 254 is moved away from the floating lever and the
discharge valve spring holds its valve 329 open to vent all air pressure from the
control pipe.

valve 41, opening a large and direct passage from brake pipe passage I to atmos-
phere. The rapid venting of brake pipe air causes an emergency reduction rate
of brake pipe pressure to pass serially and rapidly through the train, due to the
same operation of connected valves and insures the prompt movement of valves

cut-off valve of the relayair valve unit. With the brakes released and no air
This unseats valve 17 and permits spring 19 to move lower valve 15 to its upper
seated position. Air from chamber C can flow then to chamber A and out

seat with foot pedal 12 released, the air flows to pipe 3 and passage 3 in the
brake valve to the chamber on top of exhaust valve 351, which is seated when
handle 370 is depressed as shown. Exhaust valve 351 is not used with rigid
handle brake valve and safety control system stops at diaphragm foot valve.
The safety control system and chamber B on top of the brake valve service
piston 112 are thus charged to main reservoir air pressure, and spring 129 moves
the foot valve pedal are released. Only foot valve pedal need be released with
