Lost Notes From Hutch


SuiteSuccess

Recommended Posts

I lost my notes from the superb lecture by the instructer from Salina on the air brake system. Does anyone have a video or notes from that lecture? I'm specifically interested in something he said about air venting after the engine was shut off or something to that effect. I'm not talking about venting caused by pulling your park brake on.

Ok, I thought he was talking about something with the air dryer or compressor. The venting I was trying to look up was abnormal and maybe represented used up air dryer filter?

No notes, but I have some photos of his displays if it helps anyone.

Could you email them to me at ecrcarl@gmail.com? Thanks.

Was he talking about the Wabco Twin dryer? It'll exhaust purge air from the dryer head being regenerated at all times - even engine off. It's been the bain of many truck inspections for many years. DEF purge air on Freightliners at shut off is another good one. Can't think of much more on the top of my head but I'm sure there is.

Wife tells me my notebook in trailer at storage. Will update when I retrieve it.

LOL I don't think waiting is an option in 2016..... Send an Uber car or something! :P

Haha, I store it less than 1/2 mile away. Probably go over tomorrow. :)

Carl, are you talking about air from the dryer or was it when he said something about the exhaust of air when the parking brake was set and you stepped on the brake pedal?

Tom,

 

Sorry, just can't remember. I wrote it down cause thought it might be important.

Ok will close this thread. Went to trailer and couldn't find my notes. So, as my wife often reminds me, have no clue what I was thinking about.

Carl, Vicki has a sign hanging in the kitchen that covers our condition.

We are at that stage of life when our train of thought often leaves the station without us.

You got that right!

I just recalled. He was referring to a stuck or improperly functioning purge valve I believe. Air would continue to exhaust even after engine shutdown.

We had that happen at Ambassador RV park Caldwell Idaho the way home from the Hutch on Sunday. The mobile service truck had to rebuild old one because could not get a new one on Sunday.

So Scrap do these "Engineered-Solutions" to "Perceived-Problems" mask the "Original-Problem" by "Creating-NEW-Problems" that it makes one forget how small the "Original-Precieved-Problem...was...or...was not"?

 

Sorta reminds me of a meeting I attended as a young bird-boy regarding the "Future-Atomic-Powered-Airplane.....humm...just imagine the re-gen or purge valve on that rig......??

Like it or hate it, it was the only way to get above 40% compressor duty cycle in the 90s all the way till 06. Nothing else had been invented yet (that wasn't the size of a city bus) so you kind of had to learn to live with it - which is why I thought it might have been brought up by the instructor. Somewhere out there in internet land is a TSB for it that you put in your notebook that tells your truck inspector that it is normal and not an air leak.
