1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,750
From the air compressor, the compressed air enters the first main reservoir where cooling and moisture condensation take place.

2
00:00:07,750 --> 00:00:16,250
The main reservoir is tilted so that water collects at one end, where a drain valve drains any accumulated condensation from moisture in the air.

3
00:00:16,250 --> 00:00:20,708
A safety valve is connected to the outlet of the first main reservoir.

4
00:00:20,708 --> 00:00:26,208
If air pressure exceeds 150 psi, the valve will open.

5
00:00:26,208 --> 00:00:31,708
This is to protect the air compressor and the rest of the system from an overpressure condition.

6
00:00:31,708 --> 00:00:35,875
Compressed air from the first main reservoir flows in two ways.

7
00:00:35,875 --> 00:00:45,625
One path is to the main air reservoir pressure sensor (ARPS), which provides a feedback signal of the air pressure to the locomotive's control system.

8
00:00:45,625 --> 00:00:57,958
The other path is to the second main air reservoir, with or without an air dryer, based on customer requirements.
