NORMAL AIR ENGAGED MODE
Below is a standard air brake control circuit. On-off air control
is accomplished by the three-way valve. Torque is controlled
by the regulation of air pressure (See Figure 10).
NORMAL SPRING ENGAGED MODE
This mode is for occasional duty, non-cyclic applications
only. A hold-off air pressure of 5.17-6.90 bar [75-100 psi]
is used to compress the spring inside the actuator canister.
A control signal is used to release hold-off air pressure,
thus applying full spring engaged torque to the disc (See
Figure 11).
