requested by the retarder control unit (RCM) (A11).
W43.30>1324>11
Valve block (5)
The valve block (5) consists of an actuator (6), a switching valve (7),
a control valve (10), the switching valve compression spring (8) and
the control valve compression spring (9).
If a braking torque is requested, the switching valve (7) directs the
engine coolant into the working chamber. If no braking torque is
requested, the switching valve (7) separates the working chamber
from the coolant circuit. Depending on the pneumatic pressure
applied, the control valve (10) controls the coolant feed into the
working chamber and thus the intensity of the braking effect. In
idle mode, the control valve (10) acts as a check valve and seals the
bypass to the working chamber.
