1.2 J-1 RELAY VALVE PORTION, Pc.No. 556441 6 30 EX. 16 Check Valve Piston Stem "B" The J-1 Relay Valve Portion, Pc.No. 556441, is a diaphragm operated self-lapping valve that functions to direct air to or exhaust air from the brake cylinder pipe in accordance with a brake cylinder control pressure during the operation of air brake equipment. This Portion is designed to be mounted to a manifold or a pipe bracket in such a way that it can be removed for servicing or maintenance without disturbing the equipment piping. It is often used as component of a WABCO Pneumatic Operating Unit or a SERVOTROL Control Unit. Consult your Wabtec Corporation representative for specific application information. 2.0 OPERATION (Figure 2) 1.0 DESCRIPTION "A" LEGEND 6 Supply 30 Brake Cylinder Pipe 16 Brake Cylinder Control Ex.

Figure 2 - Diagrammatic View Diaphragm 1.1 J-1 RELAY VALVE, Pc.No. 557290 (Figure 1) This J-1 Relay Valve, which is designed for use in equipment arrangements where the air pressure does not exceed 150 psig, is comprised of a J-1 Relay Valve Portion, Pc.No. 556441; a Pipe Bracket Portion, Pc.No. 557673; a Right Hand Mounting Bracket Pc.No. 97923 and a Left Hand Mounting Bracket Pc.No. 97369. The Mounting Brackets are designed so that they can be used for either floor or suspension mounting of the Relay Valve. These Brackets are semi-permanently attached to the car piping and to the Pipe Bracket Portion. The Pipe Bracket Portion is used to provide an interface between the J-1 Relay Valve Portion and the car piping. A four digit suffix code number has been added to the assembly piece number to indicate suspension or floor mounting. Pc.No. 557290-0001 indicates a J-1 Relay Valve arranged for suspension mounting. Pc.No. 557290-0002 indicates a J-1 Relay Valve arranged for floor mounting. November, 1984 Page 2 of 8 A controlled air pressure build-up in passage 16 results in a corresponding build-up in pressure on the relay valve diaphragm in chamber A which causes a movement of the diaphragm assembly and piston stem. The piston stem is forced to close against the check valve which blanks off passage 30 (brake cylinder) from exhaust. The check valve is then lifted from its seat by the piston stem permitting supply air (passage 6) to flow into passage 30 that is connected to the brake cylinder pipe. Passage 30 is also connected to chamber B on the spring side of the diaphragm. The build-up of air at brake cylinder pipe pressure in chamber B along with the spring force oppose the movement of the diaphragm assembly initiated by the controlled air pressure admitted into passage 16. An equalization of forces across the diaphragm positions the diaphragm assembly to allow the check valve to seat and remain in a lap position. The maintaining feature of the relay valve portion will function if pressure fluctuates in the brake cylinder pipe. If the pressure in passage 30 as well as the pressure in chamber B drops, the piston stem will move to open the check valve. Supply air will then flow into passage 30 as well as chamber B until an equalization of forces across the diaphragm is reached. The diaphragm assembly is then positioned to permit the valve to reassume a lap position. A decrease of air pressure in passage 16 (brake cylinder control) results in a corresponding decrease in pressure in the relay valve diaphragm chamber A which causes a movement of the diaphragm assembly and piston stem. The piston stem is forced to unseat from the check valve, permitting air at brake cylinder pipe pressure (passage 30) to flow to atmosphere at the exhaust port. A graduated release of brake cylinder air out of passage 30 can be obtained if the control pressure in passage 16 is intermittently depleted. When an equalization of forces exists across the diaphragm, the valve will again assume a lap position. The

amount of air pressure available for braking is a function of the pressure in chamber A. 3.0 MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE IMPORTANT: The J-1 Relay Valve Portion should be removed from the equipment arrangement, taken to the shop, be thoroughly disassembled, the parts cleaned, inspected, lubricated, assembled and the Portion tested according to the following vehicle application schedule or more frequently if service conditions so indicate. RECOMMENDED FREQUENCY - TYPE OF APPLICATION AT LEAST ONCE EVERY Locomotive Freight Cars Transit Passenger (Interstate) 12 Months 144 Months 24 Months 36 Months 4.0 PARTS CATALOG & RUBBER PARTS KIT INFORMATION 4.1 When ordering replacement parts for the J-1 Relay Valve, Pc.No. 557290 or for the J-1 Relay Valve Portion Pc.No. 556441 refer to the Wabtec Corporation Parts Catalog 3231-12. In some cases the J-1 Relay Valve Portion may also be shown in the Operating Unit or SERVOTROL Control Unit Parts Catalog of which the Portion is a component. NOTE: The reference numbers listed in this publication and those listed in the Parts Catalog(s) may differ. Check the descriptive parts name to be sure that the desired part is ordered. 4.2 A Rubber Parts Maintenance Kit for this J-1 Relay Valve Portion may be obtained by ordering Pc.No. 560728. Check Parts Catalog 3231-12 to identify parts included in this Kit. 5.0 SAFETY PROCEDURES AND WARNINGS Regular owner-operating property and shop safety procedures MUST BE followed when working on the J-1 Relay Valve or Valve Portion. The work area is to be clean. WARNING: The following statements of warning apply all or in part wherever the symbol appears in the maintenance procedures. Failure to observe these precautions may result in serious injury to those performing the work and/or bystanders. The use of an air jet, which must be less than 30 p.s.i.g., to blow parts clean or to blow them dry after being cleaned with a solvent will cause particles of dirt and/or droplets of the cleaning solvent to be airborne. Wire brushing may also cause particles of dirt, rust, and scale to become airborne. These conditions may cause skin and/or eye irritation. When using an air jet, do not direct it toward another person. Improper use of air jet could result in bodily injury. Personal eye protection must be worn when performing any work on this device or its components parts to avoid any possible injury to the eyes. The use of solvents as cleaning agents and the use of lubricants can involve health and/or safety hazards. The manufacturers of the solvents and lubricants should be contacted for safety data (such as OSHA Form OSHA-20 or its equivalent). The recommended precautions and procedures of the manufacturers should be followed. When performing any test or work on devices or equipment while they are on the vehicle (on car test, etc.) special precautions must be taken to insure that vehicle movement will not occur which could result in injury to personnel and/or damage to equipment. Assembly may be under a spring load. Exercise caution during disassembly so that no parts Fly Out and cause bodily injury. All air supply and/or electric current to this device and/or to any components part must be cut-off before this device and/or any component part is removed from the equipment arrangement. Bottled up air under pressure (even though air supply is cut-off) may cause gaskets and/or particles of dirt to become airborne and an increase in sound level when this device and/or any component part is removed from the equipment arrangement.
