Function, symbol

The inching-remotely powered brake valve is a combination 3 2 1 7 6

of a single circuit brake valve (3-way pressure reducing BR1 SP2
valve) and an inching valve (2-way pressure reducing valve)
with stepless operation.

The valve basically comprises of the housing (1), brake control spool
(2), inching spool (7), force spring (3), compression spring (8), plunger
(4), inching pressure limiting spring (6) and inching pressure control
spring (10).
The valve is normally operated via a foot pedal which moves the SP1 T M2
plunger (4). This pushes against the force spring (3) and acts via the 4 8 9 5 10
rod (5) on the inching pressure control spring (10) together with the
inching pressure against the inching pressure control spring (6).

Inching / brake pressure in bar

An increase in operation causes the control pressure to fall, the travel
pump swivels back and hydro-statically brakes the vehicle.
From a specific point the plunger acts on the compression spring (8). pBRAKE
This moves the brake control spool (2) and the connection to tank is
closed. The flow from the accumulator to the brake cylinder is enabled.
The increasing brake pressure acts on the reverse side of the brake
spool (2). The control spool controls the brake pressure in relation to pINCH
the operation.
A pedal travel limitation acts as a maximum pressure limiter for the
secondary circuit (brake pressure).

Installation and maintenance guidelines

The cross-section of the hydraulic pipe lines are to be so selected that the function can also be maintained at low temperatures.
Connect ports T and M2 separately to tank.
The tank pressure T must not exceed the applied brake pressure.
A pedal travel limiter is required.
During assembly care has to be taken to ensure that contamination cannot affect the movement of the pedal.
Rubber components must not be painted.
Damaged seals must be replaced.
The operation element must not have direct contact with high pressure cleaning.
When applying the inching-remotely powered brake valve the relevant Trade Union or TV regulations must be taken into account.

Assembly guidelines:
hen mounted under the base plate care has to be taken to ensure that contamination cannot affect the movement of the pedal!
