Inside Air Brake Valves and Devices and How they Work
Designed to be a companion to the "Air Brake Connection", this manual adds a new dimension to the understanding of air brakes. Where the "Air Brake Connection" describes the hookup and function of the various air valves, the new manual, through simplified "x-ray" diagrams, shows how the devices actually accomplish those functions. The diagrams show a valve in each of its operational modes, allowing the reader to follow the flow of air from initial application, to full release. Written in 2008.
