    The document provides guidelines for crew to deal with enroute failures in LHB coaches, including: 1. In the event of a leak in the CDTS line, isolate the CDTS system from the brake panel. 2. For brake binding, release brakes manually and isolate affected trolleys and dynamic brake unit. Release jammed brake calipers if needed. 3. To reset an activated passenger emergency alarm, identify and isolate the triggered device using keys or isolation cocks. 4. For brake binding in FIAT bogies, release brakes and isolate affected bogies from the air brake panel if needed by loosening parts of the brake cylinder.

    Guidelines to Crew to deal enroute failure on LHB coaches.

    Subject: ENROUTE ATTENTION OF AIR BRAKE IN LHB COACHES


    Objective: Enroute Attention in LHB coaches in case of Leakage in CDTS line,
    Brake Binding, Resetting of ICV, Isolation of Trolleys

    1. Leakage in CDTS line- if there is any leakage in CDTS retention tank pressure pipe
    connection or leakage in main line of CDTS system isolate the CDTS system from brake
    panel by isolating cock provided in brake panel .

    Brake Panel
    Vertical position-ON position, CDTS Retention tank
    Horizontal position- ISOLATED position

    2. Brake Binding in Coach-


    1. Check the both trolleys of culprit coach for jamming of Brake pads, if found jammed,
    release the brakes by Manual release lever of DV. In applied condition of brakes, brake
    indicator will be in RED position and in release condition, brake indicator will show
    Green.
    2. After release of brake pads, isolate the trolleys by isolating cock available on brake panel
    of both make. Also isolate DV by R charger/isolate cock attached with DV. In addition to it
    isolate FP isolating cock on panel.
    3. Check all calipers individually for release, if any caliper found jam, release it by opening
    the slack adjuster of Brake cylinder with the help of open ended spanner size 24/27 for KBI
    make and of size 46 & 24/27 for FTIL make or by suitable spanner.

    cylinder unit
    3. Resetting of Alarm chain pull device (LHB coaches)
    1 Passenger Emergency Alarm Signalling Device (PEASD) is provided in each coupe of
    the coach.
    2 In case of chain is pulled from any coach, hissing sound of pressure leakage may be
    heard from Passenger emergency valve (PEV) fitted on the underneath (near
    Footboard) of the coach (fig no 3).

    Normal Position of PEASD Pull PEASD Pull Handle moved


    Handle downward in Pulled Position

    3 To put right Passenger Emergency Alarm Signalling Device (PEASD) of the coach,
    identify the location inside the coach from where alarm chain is pulled. The PEASD
    Pull Handle may be seen dislocated from its position (as shown in figure 2).
    4 Insert the resetting key in slot and turn it in clockwise direction. PEASD Pull Handle
    will move upward in its proper position and air pressure leakage through the PEV
    will stop.
    5 In case of defect in PEASD or for any other reason if it is not possible to reset the
    device from inside the coach, the same can be isolated by isolation cock fitted near
    the PEV.

    6 Work the train ensuring that requisite pressure is maintained in BP/FP in loco and
    SLR and brakes are released.
    4. Procedure to release and isolate brake binding in LHB coach with FIAT bogie trolley

    In case of brake binding, the


    brake indicator of the affected
    bogie will show red colour.

    Pull the release lever of DV

    If released-
    Isolate DV by lifting handle
    upward and tie with wire.
    Isolate FP connection to AR
    isolating cock fitted in Brake
    panel & drain AR
    If not released- Air Brake Panel of KBI
    Rotate the isolation cock of the
    affected bogie provided on the
    brake panel in anti-clockwise
    direction by 90 degree to release
    and isolate the brake cylinders
    of the affected bogie.
    Air Brake Panel of FTIL

    If brakes are released, brake


    indicator of the affected bogie
    will change colour from red to
    green as shown. Check that the
    brakes are released by shaking
    the brake callipers. If brakes are
    released, work the train

    If not released
    Open flexible pipe of B.C line of
    affected wheel set having brake
    binding.

    Loosen the hexagonal nut of the brake cylinder by 27 no. or 46 no. spanner. Check that the
    brakes are released by shaking the callipers and work the train. If not released, remove the
    brake calliper pivot pin of affected cylinder
