The Bendix
E-10PR
retarder control brake valve is used
with retarder systems installed on automatic transmissions.
Automatic transmission retarders are used to retard forward
motion of the vehicle above 5 mph. Retarders are most
popular in the transit (buses/coaches) industry and are used
to extend the life of brake system components.
The retarder system is actuated early in the brake
application, before air pressure is delivered.
Retarders can be installed either internally or externally on
the automatic transmission and are generally electrically
activated by devices such as the E-10PR
retarders redirect the flow of hydraulic fluid through the torque
converter while others use a small internal brake in the output
section of the transmission.

The E-10PR
valve is capable of controlling up to a three-
stage retarder (different levels of retardation) through the
sequencing of its three electrical switches. The sequencing
of these switches is important to the proper operation of the
retarder.
E-10PR
™
retarder control brake valve is a floor mounted,
treadle operated type brake valve with two separate supply
and delivery circuits for service (primary and secondary)
braking, which provides the driver with a graduated control
for applying and releasing the vehicle brakes.
™
The E-10PR
valve uses a metal coil spring (6) housed in an
upper body assembly. The use of a metal coil spring (and
the upper body assembly) provides greater treadle travel
and, therefore, provides the driver with a less sensitive "feel"
when making a brake application. The E-10PR
control brake valve is generally used on buses, where smooth
brake applications contribute to passenger comfort.
The circuits in the E-10PR
are identified as follows: The No. 1 or primary circuit is that
portion of the valve between the spring seat which contacts
the plunger and the relay piston; the No. 2 or secondary
circuit is that portion between the relay piston and the
exhaust cavity.
The primary circuit of the valve is similar in operation to a
standard single circuit air brake valve and under normal
operating conditions the secondary circuit is similar in
operation to a relay valve.
Both primary and secondary circuits of the brake valve use
a common exhaust protected by an exhaust diaphragm.
OPERATION
- Refer to Figure 2
APPLYING: NORMAL OPERATION - NO. 1 OR
PRIMARY CIRCUIT PORTION
When the brake treadle is depressed, the plunger exerts
force on the spring seat (5), graduating spring (12), and
primary piston (11). The primary piston, which contains the
exhaust valve seat, closes the primary exhaust valve. As
the exhaust valve closes, the primary inlet valve is moved off
its seat allowing primary air to flow out the No. 1 or primary
delivery port.
