Line 1: Line 1:
Brake pipe, pressurized by the main reservoir, is a system of valves, pipes and hoses stretched throughout a whole train. At every coupling, the airflow can be manually opened or closed, by a valve at its base, called the angle cock. This is done on the ends of the train, to prevent the pressurized air from escaping into the atmosphere. Under normal running conditions the brake pipe holds a pressure of 5 bar.
Brake pipe is a system of air lines designed to distribute compressed air throughout an entire train. On a properly coupled train, air line hoses are connected between individual vehicles with their valves open. At the ends of the train, however, the valves are closed. This allows the pipe to be pressurized at {{pll|Monitoring|5 bar}} in normal running conditions, throughout the train, by available main reservoirs. The volume of brake pipes is relatively low, but it grows bigger with each additional coupled vehicle.
