24、15611:2008+A1:2010 (E)5 1 Scope This European Standard is applicable to relay valves designed to control the brake cylinder pressure of compressed air brakes fitted to railway vehicles, in association with an air brake distributor valve or other control device, and in response to a change in vehicle

25、 load that is either continuously variable or in two stages i.e. empty - loaded. Relay valves operating with other pressures, in particular the brake pipe pressure, are not included. This European Standard specifies the requirements for the design, manufacture and testing of relay valves. 2 Normativ

This pressure can also be used as the input pressure to another relay valve. The output pressure can obtain one, two or three fixed l

38、 greater (step-up) than 1 3.1.6.2.1 relay valve type B1 multi stage relay valve that can change relay valve ratio during a brake application NOTE Typically used on vehicles normally operated in empty or fully loaded condition. 3.1.6.2.2 relay valve type B2 multi stage relay valve where a change of r

39、elay valve ratio cannot take place during a brake application NOTE Blocking the relay valve ratio during brake application is typically used to avoid frequent changeovers taking place on vehicles operated near the changeover weight. 3.1.6.2.3 empty/load relay valve specific type of multi stage relay

41、used to change the ratio 3.1.6.4 multi stage variable load relay valve relay valve type C1 relay valve with a continuously changeable relay valve ratio, where a load signal is used to change the ratio and with a multi stage feature added NOTE Typically a load signal is used to change the relay valve

42、 ratio and a control signal (automatic or manual) is used to change the stage(s). The typical result is that at the same load and input pressure, in the lower stage (e.g. P-mode, passenger train) results a lower output pressure and in a higher stage (e.g. R-mode, rapid passenger train) this results

43、in a higher output pressure. 3.1.6.5 two (multi) input relay valve relay valve type D relay valve (type A, B or C) with two (or more) input pressures, controlling a single output pressure BS EN 15611:2008+A1:2010EN 15611:2008+A1:2010 (E)8 3.1.6.6 variable load relay valve with kinked characteristic
