Inevitably, it is impossible for VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG in the last analysis to assess all situations
which might entail the risk of injury for the person carrying out the work. It is therefore imperative that
any person carrying out repair work on VOITH retarders uses his professional knowledge to make sure
that his own safety is not endangered and that the retarder suffers no negative effects, in particular
safety-wise, through the chosen working procedure. For these reasons, no liability can be assumed for
damage incurred.

It is therefore expressly pointed out that all working procedures described must be carried out only in
compliance with the valid general directions and regulations of the locally responsible authorities, of the
health protection, accident prevention and environmental protection organisations.

The technical status of the present instructions can be seen from the updating index. There may be
discrepancies between the actual technical status of the retarders and the descriptions owing to
continuous development and improvement of the retarders.
VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG reserves the right to make modifications at any time and without
prior notification.

Description of the function


The VOITH retarder R 115 H is a powerful, hydrodynamic, continuous brake of compact design for
commercial vehicles of the heavy-duty range with a prop-shaft speed up to 2708 r.p.m. max.

The retarder is driven and braking torque is transmitted by a pair gearwheels in the gearbox.
The transmission ratio enables the retarder to achieve high braking torques right down
to low r.p.m. ranges with the compactest configuration (small rotor/stator).

Retarder braking torque is sustained even when gear changes are made.

A switched-on retarder will not secure a parked vehicle.

In the event of a retarder failure or when the temperature limit is effective, the service brake must be FD985
used to regulate the vehicle speed.

Description of operation of retarder R 115 H with digiprop control system


c
A retarder stage switch (16) with 5 switching stages is used to operate the VOITH retarder R 115 H.
In a special version, the retarder stage switch (16) in conjunction with ABS can be combined with
a 3-stage running-plate valve or a 4-stage pressure-switch unit for the service brake.

When the retarder stage switch (16) is shifted to position 1, the „Constant Speed“ function is activated.
The present speed is memorized and the retarder holds the vehicle to this speed downhill within the limit a b
of the maximum braking torque.

If the retarder is switched off (0 position), or if a braking stage is engaged (position 2 to 5), the memorized
constant speed is deleted. If the constant speed function is re-activated, the new present speed
is memorized.
FD299
If the retarder stage switch (16) is shifted to positions 2 to 5, the retarder brakes in braking stage 1 to 4.
The hydrodynamic principle
In the maximum position of the retarder stage switch (16), the braking torque of the VOITH retarder a Rotor (46)
is at maximum. b Stator (44)
c Oil flow
The control medium for the VOITH retarder R 115 H is compressed air, which is taken from the
vehicle air tank for auxiliary equipment.

When the retarder stage switch (16) is operated, an input signal is fed to the control unit (2). From this
input signal, the control unit (2) provides a control current which is passed on to the
proportional valve (21).
The proportional valve (21), depending on the magnitude of the control current, provides a
constant-air pressure py on the oil sump (43).
The constant-air pressure py in the oil sump (43), depending on the operating conditions (prop-shaft
speed), forces a certain quantity of oil into the working chamber between rotor (46) and stator (44).
The rotor (46) is connected with the drive shaft of the retarder, the stator (44) is fixed
to the retarder housing.

Page 2.2/3
General   


 

(Continue)

The rotation of the rotor sets the oil in motion and circulates it in a closed circuit between
the rotor (46) and stator (44).
The reduction of the velocity of the oil flow in the chambers of the stator (44) leads to braking of
the rotor (46) and consequently to braking of the vehicle.

During braking, the kinetic energy of a deceleration is transformed into heat. To dissipate this heat, part
of the circulating oil is pumped continuously by the rotor (46) through the heat exchanger (3300) and via
filling ducts to join the circulating flow again.
In the heat exchanger (3300), the heat energy of the oil is transferred to the cooling water of the vehicle
and dissipated via the vehicle radiator to the ambient air.

Temperatur pick-ups, water (19), oil (20)


The temperature pick-ups are installed in the cooling system of the vehicle (Cooling return circle from
the retarder to the the heat exchanger) and in the retarder oil duct and transmit signals on cooling water
and oil temperature to the control unit (2).
To prevent the temperatures preset in the control unit (2) for water and oil being exceeded, the retarder
braking torque is limited to protect the vehicle cooling system and the retarder.
The constant-air pressure py is limited.

The braking torque and consequently the heat generated are reduced until a balance is obtained
between the braking energy of the retarder and the amount of heat which can be dissipated by
the vehicle cooling system.

If the cooling water temperature rises into the temperature limit range, the consequence is a limitation of
the retarder braking torque to protect the vehicle cooling system. If the temperature rises above the
temperature limit range, there is no more braking torque output.

While the temperature limit is effective or if there is a retarder failure, the service brake must be used to
control the vehicle.
The control unit (2) also cuts back braking torque if oil temperature rises too rapidly, irrespective of actual
oil temperature.

Pressure regulating valve (62)


The pressure regulating valve (62) adjusts the lubrication in the no-load operation of the retarder.

Casing ventilation (23)


During braking, the oil displaces the air present in the working circuit via the casing ventilation (23) and
the ventilation system (22) out of the retarder.
Once the working circuit is free of air, a float rises and closes the casing ventilation.

Check valve (63) inlet


When the retarder is switched on, the oil sump is pressurized, causing the check valve (63) to open and
the oil to enter the working space.

Check valve (64) outlet


The oil pressure in the working space opens the check valve (64), causing the oil to enter
the heat exchanger (1), to be cooled and to be returned to the working circuit.

Notice

If the check valve (outlet) must be renewed during a repair operation, please contact VOITH TURBO
or a responsible contracting party.

Troubleshooting and remedies


Check requirements
• Battery voltage 18 - 32 V
• Vehicle electrical system checked in accordance with the Owner´s Manual for the vehicle
and found satisfactory.
• Fuse for retarder control unit checked and found satisfactory.
• Compressed-air pressure 6 - 11 bar
• For check with the multimeter, pin 15 (plug X1) on the control unit (2)
must be connected to pin 15 ground (terminal 31),
at pin 7 (plug X1) must be connected terminal 15 and
at pin 13 (terminal X1) terminal 30.

Notice

Prior to any troubleshooting, the retarder oil level must be checked and corrected, if necessary
(see Section 3.3 „Checking Oil Level“).

For trouble-free retarder operation, it is important that the filling quantity specified is adhered to
(see table, Section 3.2, page 3.2/2).

Notice R

The retarder pilot light (arrow) has additionally the function of a fault code:

- slight fault
Permanent lighting in position 0 - 5 of retarder stage switch, braking is still possible to limited extent.
- serious fault
Permanent lighting in position 0 - 5 of retarder stage switch, braking no longer possible
- retarder is switched off.
FD844

Notice

If the ignition is switched off and on, the retarder is in operation again and the retarder pilot light
goes off. If a serious fault remains present or reoccurs, the retarder switches off again and the retarder
pilot light comes on permanently in position 0 to 5 of the retarder stage switch.

Fault memory read-out via retarder pilot light blinking code

R
Notice

If several faults have been stored in the memory, they are indicated in the sequence of their occurance,
but always only one fault per triggering.
Exception:
The fault „Coding fault“ is not held in the memory but is indicated via the blinking code.

The blinking code can be read-out of the control unit with service cable or retarder stage switch.

FD844
Fault memory read-out with service cable
(Digiprop-Version 0.2)

Requirements
l Retarder stage switch in position 0
l Vehicle in parking position, Ignition ON
1. Service interface L-lead connected to ground for ≥ 2 s. For this purpose, press push-button of
service cable switch.
2. First fault as blinking code output.
3. Repeat from step 2 and 3 for more blinking code outputs.

Digiprop-Version 1.0
The blinking code can be triggered analogous to V 0.2, the conditions are the same. Additionally the
blinking code can be triggered with the help of the retarder stage switch during the service function:

1. Shift RSS-Position 0
2. Shift RSS-Position 1 ( ≥ 2 Seconds)
3. Shift RSS-Position 0
4. Blinking code of first fault is indicated
5. Repeat from step 2 to 3 for more blinking code outputs

Addition for versions as of V 1.1

There is a break of 3 seconds before and after each blinking code output, during this time the retarder
pilot light is switched off.
Display example: Fault code 23
Display example for fault code 23:
E Retarder stage switch on
A Retarder stage switch off
The number of tens will be indicated first as long ON-time: each 2 seconds t Time
The number of singles afterwards will be indicated as short ON-time: each 0,5 seconds
Breaks between each ON-time: each 1 second

If a relevant fault is indicated, the retarder pilot light is ON before triggering of the blinking code, the
retarder pilot light switches to permanent lighting again after the blinking code.
If there is only one fault in the memory, the retarder pilot light stays OFF after the output.

3. Install the retarder, if necessary (see Section 5.1, „Removing, Installing Retarder“).

4. Fill in cooling-water and bleed cooling-water circuit.

Notice

Pay attention to the instructions regarding the quality of the cooling-water given
from the manufacturer or VOITH TURBO.

Caution!

If the heat exchanger leaks, there is water present in the retarder. If the retarder is filled up, a mixture of
oil and water is created, causing the oil in the retarder to foam and escape through the casing ventilation
system to the atmosphere.
For this reason, it is indispensible to flush out the retarder after repairs!

While flushing, apply the brake gently several times to prevent the retarder oil warming up excessively.

5. Flush the retarder, if the heat exchanger leaked:


To flush the retarder, fill it with 5,4 litres of engine- or flushing oil. Apply the brakes gently several
times to flush out the retarder system and drain the oil through the central oil-drain plug (2919).
Repeat the procedure 2 or 3 times.
Coat new O-rings (2918 und 2920) with silicone-free and non-corrosive grease and fit them on to 2921
the central oil-drain plug (2919).

brackish water, salt water and industrial waste water. Avoid suspended particles in the water,
especially those containing copper.

For any information required on the water quality please contact the local waterworks or the
water supply plant in charge. In case that information on the water quality is not available
use distilled or demineralized water for mixing. If the water does not meet the admissible
analysis values, treat the water suitably.

Please refer to chapter 2 regarding admissible analysis values.

2. Composition of coolant

2.1 Normal case

50 % by volume water
50 % by volume corrosion preventive and antifreezing agent*; antifreeze down to approx. -37 °C

Inevitably, it is impossible for VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG in the last analysis to assess all situations
which might entail the risk of injury for the person carrying out the work. It is therefore imperative that
any person carrying out repair work on VOITH retarders uses his professional knowledge to make sure
that his own safety is not endangered and that the retarder suffers no negative effects, in particular
safety-wise, through the chosen working procedure. For these reasons, no liability can be assumed for
damage incurred.

It is therefore expressly pointed out that all working procedures described must be carried out only in
compliance with the valid general directions and regulations of the locally responsible authorities, of the
health protection, accident prevention and environmental protection organisations.

The technical status of the present instructions can be seen from the updating index. There may be
discrepancies between the actual technical status of the retarders and the descriptions owing to
continuous development and improvement of the retarders.
VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG reserves the right to make modifications at any time and without
prior notification.

Should you have queries about the descriptions, please contact the responsible person in the
appropriate organisation of the country involved or:

Description of the function


The VOITH retarder R 115 H is a powerful, hydrodynamic, continuous brake of compact design for
commercial vehicles of the heavy-duty range with a prop-shaft speed up to 2708 r.p.m. max.

The retarder is driven and braking torque is transmitted by a pair gearwheels in the gearbox.
The transmission ratio enables the retarder to achieve high braking torques right down
to low r.p.m. ranges with the compactest configuration (small rotor/stator).

Retarder braking torque is sustained even when gear changes are made.

A switched-on retarder will not secure a parked vehicle.

In the event of a retarder failure or when the temperature limit is effective, the service brake must be FD985
used to regulate the vehicle speed.

Description of retarder R 115 H operation with logoprop control system


c
A retarder stage switch (16) with 5 switch stages is used to operate the VOITH retarder R 115 H.
In a special version, the retarder stage switch (16) in conjunction with ABS can be combined with
a 3-stage running-plate valve or a 4-stage pressure-switch unit for the service brake.

When the retarder stage switch (16) is shifted to position 1, the „Constant Speed“ function is activated.
The present speed is memorized and the retarder holds the vehicle to this speed downhill within the limit a b
of the maximum braking torque.

If the retarder is switched off (0 position), or if a braking stage is engaged (position 2 to 5), the memorized
constant speed is cancelled. If the constant speed function is re-activated, the new present speed
is memorized.
FD299
If the retarder stage switch (16) is shifted to positions 2 to 5, the retarder brakes in braking stage 1 to 4.
The hydrodynamic principle
In the maximum position of the retarder stage switch (16), the braking torque of the VOITH retarder a Rotor (46)
is at maximum. b Stator (44)
c Oil flow
The control medium for the VOITH retarder R 115 H is compressed air, which is taken from the
vehicle air tank for auxiliary equipment.

When the retarder stage switch (16) is operated, an input signal is fed to the control unit (2). From this
input signal, the control unit (2) provides a control current which is passed on to the
proportional valve (21).
The proportional valve (21), depending on the magnitude of the control current, provides a
constant-air pressure py on the oil sump (43).
The constant-air pressure py in the oil sump (43), depending on the operating conditions (prop-shaft
speed), forces a certain quantity of oil into the working chamber between rotor (46) and stator (44).
The rotor (46) is connected with the drive shaft of the retarder, the stator (44) is fixed
to the retarder housing.

General   


 

(Continue)

The rotation of the retarder sets the oil in motion and circulates it in a closed circuit between
the rotor (46) and stator (44).
The reduction of the velocity of the oil flow in the chambers of the stator (44) leads to braking of
the rotor (46) and consequently to braking of the vehicle.

During braking, the deceleration energy is transformed into heat. To dissipate this heat, part of the oil in
the working circuit is pumped continuously by the rotor (46) through the heat exchanger (3300) and
filling ducts and returned to the circuit again.
In the heat exchanger (3300), the heat energy of the oil is transferred to the cooling water of the vehicle
and dissipated via the vehicle radiator to the ambient air.

Cooling water temperature pick-up (19)


The temperature pick-up (19) installed in the retarder cooling water return pipe monitors the
cooling water temperature and transmits appropriate signals to the control unit (2).
This temperature pick-up guarantees that the maximum permissible cooling water temperature
is not exceeded.
If the cooling water in the return pipe heats up to a predefined temperature of =96°C, the
constant-air pressure py is limited linearly over a temperature limit range of approx. 10°C at the
highest braking stage.

The braking torque and consequently the heat generated are reduced until a balance is obtained
between the braking energy of the retarder and the amount of heat which can be dissipated by
the vehicle cooling system.

If the temperature limit range of approx. 10°C is exceeded while braking, braking torque output
is stopped to protect the vehicle cooling system.

While the temperature limit is operative or whenever there is a retarder failure, the service brake must
be used to control the speed of the vehicle.

Pressure regulating valve (62)


The pressure regulating valve (62) adjusts the lubrication in the no-load operation of the retarder.

Casing ventilation (23)


During braking, the oil displaces the air present in the working circuit via the casing ventilation (23) and
the ventilation system (22) out of the retarder.
Once the working circuit is free of air, a float rises and closes the casing ventilation.

Check valve (63) inlet


When the retarder is switched on, the oil sump is pressurized, causing the check valve (63) to open and
the oil to enter the working space.

Check valve (64) outlet


The oil pressure in the working space opens the check valve (64), causing the oil to enter
the heat exchanger (1), to be cooled and to be returned to the working circuit.

Notice

If the check valve (outlet) must be renewed during a repair operation, please contact VOITH TURBO
or a responsible contracting party.

• Electrical system checked in accordance with the Owner´s Manual for the vehicle R
and found satisfactory.
• Constant-air pressure 6 -11 bar
• Retarder oil level satisfactory

The following operational states are indicated by the retarder pilot light (arrow):

Retarder pilot light without indication


FD844
The retarder is switched off.

Retarder pilot light comes on permanently


The retarder is switched on, i.e., the retarder stage switch is switched to one of its five possible
switch positions.

Retarder pilot light flashes


1 on moving off
This flashing occurs at low ambient temperatures in braking stage 1 to 5 and goes off as soon as
the vehicle has reached its operating temperature.
However, the retarder itself is completely ready for operation.

2 during braking with the retarder


• The temperature limit is effective - the retarder regulates its braking torque down.
• The control unit identifies a discontinuity to the temperature pick-up.

3. Install the retarder, if necessary (see Section 5.1, „Removing, Installing Retarder“).

4. Fill in cooling-water and bleed cooling-water circuit.

Notice

Pay attention to the instructions regarding the quality of the cooling-water given
from the manufacturer or VOITH TURBO.

Caution!

If the heat exchanger leaks, there is water present in the retarder. If the retarder is filled up, a mixture of
oil and water is created, causing the oil in the retarder to foam and escape through the casing ventilation
system to the atmosphere.
For this reason, it is indispensible to flush out the retarder after repairs!

While flushing, apply the brake gently several times to prevent the retarder oil warming up excessively.

5. Flush the retarder, if the heat exchanger leaked:


To flush the retarder, fill it with 5,4 litres of engine- or flushing oil. Apply the brakes gently several
times to flush out the retarder system and drain the oil through the central oil-drain plug (2919).
Repeat the procedure 2 or 3 times.
Coat new O-rings (2918 und 2920) with silicone-free and non-corrosive grease and fit them on to 2921
the central oil-drain plug (2919).

Inevitably, it is impossible for VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG in the last analysis to assess all situations
which might entail the risk of injury for the person carrying out the work. It is therefore imperative that
any person carrying out repair work on VOITH retarders uses his professional knowledge to make sure
that his own safety is not endangered and that the retarder suffers no negative effects, in particular
safety-wise, through the chosen working procedure. For these reasons, no liability can be assumed for
damage incurred.

It is therefore expressly pointed out that all working procedures described must be carried out only in
compliance with the valid general directions and regulations of the locally responsible authorities, of the
health protection, accident prevention and environmental protection organisations.

The technical status of the present instructions can be seen from the updating index. There may be
discrepancies between the actual technical status of the retarders and the descriptions owing to
continuous development and improvement of the retarders.
VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG reserves the right to make modifications at any time and without
prior notification.

Should you have queries about the descriptions, please contact the responsible person in the
appropriate organisation of the country involved or:

Description of the function


The VOITH retarder 115 H is a powerful, hydrodynamic continous brake of compact design for
commercial vehicles of the heavy-duty range (SK-range) with a prop-shaft speed
up to 2500 r.p.m. max.

The retarder is driven and braking torque is transmitted by a pair gearwheels in the gearbox.
The transmission ratio enables the retarder to achieve high braking torques right down
to low r.p.m. ranges with the compactest configuration (small rotor/stator).

Retarder braking torque is sustained even when gear changes are made.

A switched-on retarder will not secure a parked vehicle.


FD326
In the event of a retarder failure or when the temperature limit is effective, the service brake must be
used to regulate the vehicle speed.

Description of retarder R 115 H operation


c
A retarder stage switch (16) with 5 switch stages is used to operate the VOITH retarder 115 H.

The retarder stage switch (16) has 4 braking stages and an additional function (engine brake or
constant throttle).
When the retarder stage switch (16) is shifted to position 1, the engine brake or constant throttle
is activated. a b
If the retarder stage switch (16) is shifted to positions 2 to 5 the retarder brakes in
braking stage 1 to 4. Engine brake or constant throttle are switched on in addition.
In the maximum position of the retarder stage switch (16), the braking torque of the VOITH retarder
is at maximum.
FD299
The control medium for the VOITH retarder R 115 H is compressed air, which is taken from the
vehicle air tank for auxiliary equipment. The hydrodynamic principle
a Rotor (46)
When the retarder stage switch (16) is operated, an input signal is fed to the control unit (2). From this b Stator (44)
input signal, the control unit (2) provides a control current which is passed on to the c Oil flow
proportional valve (21).
The proportional valve (21), depending on the magnitude of the control current, provides a
constant-air pressure py on the oil sump (43).
The constant-air pressure py in the oil sump (43), depending on the operating conditions (prop-shaft
speed), forces a certain quantity of oil into the working chamber between rotor (46) and stator (44).
The rotor (46) is connected with the drive shaft of the retarder, the stator (44) is fixed
to the retarder housing.

cbtd 98-01 Aftersales Service Manual VOITH Retarder 115 H - Daimler Benz SK
53.2662.10 Page 2.2/3
General   


  

(Continue)

The rotation of the retarder sets the oil in motion and circulates it in a closed circuit between
the rotor (46) and stator (44).
The reduction of the velocity of the oil flow in the chambers of the stator (44) leads to braking of
the rotor (46) and consequently to braking of the vehicle.

During braking, the deceleration energy is transformed into heat. To dissipate this heat, part of the oil in
the working circuit is pumped continuously by the rotor (46) through the heat exchanger (3300) and
filling ducts and returned to the circuit again.
In the heat exchanger (3300), the heat energy of the oil is transferred to the cooling water of the vehicle
and dissipated via the vehicle radiator to the ambient air.

Cooling water temperature pick-up (19)


The temperature pick-up (19) installed in the retarder cooling water return pipe monitors the
cooling water temperature and transmits appropriate signals to the control unit (2).
This temperature pick-up ensures that the maximum permissible temperature of the cooling water does
not exceed.
If the cooling water in the return pipe heats up to a predefined temperature of =96°C, the
constant-air pressure py is limited linearly over a temperature limit range of approx. 10°C at the
highest braking stage.

The braking torque and consequently the heat generated are reduced until a balance is obtained
between the braking energy of the retarder and the amount of heat which can be dissipated by
the vehicle cooling system.

If the temperature limit range of approx. 10°C is exceeded while braking, braking torque output
is stopped to protect the vehicle cooling system.

While the temperature limit is operative or whenever there is a retarder failure, the service brake must
be used to control the speed of the vehicle.

Pressure regulating valve (62)


The pressure regulating valve (62) adjusts the lubrication in the no-load operation of the retarder.

Casing ventilation (23)


During braking, the oil displaces the air present in the working circuit via the casing ventilation (23) and
the ventilation system (22) out of the retarder.
Once the working circuit is free of air, a float rises and closes the casing ventilation.

Check valve (63) inlet


When the retarder is switched on, the oil sump is pressurized, causing the check valve (63) to open and
the oil to enter the working space.

Check valve (64) outlet


The oil pressure in the working space opens the check valve (64), causing the oil to enter
the heat exchanger (1), to be cooled and to be returned to the working circuit.

There may be installed in alternative a check valve (outlet) with a valve with torque limitation or a
check valve (outlet) without a valve with torque limitation.

Caution!

The different alternative check valves (outlet) may not be changed among themselves or refitted.
If the check valve (outlet) must be renewed during a repair operation, please contact VOITH TURBO or
a responsible contracting party.

Caution!

If the heat exchanger leaks, there is water present in the retarder. If the retarder is filled up, a mixture of
oil and water is created, causing the oil in the retarder to foam and escape through the casing ventilation
system to the atmosphere.
For this reason, it is indispensible to flush out the retarder after repairs!
2921
While flushing, apply the brake gently several times to prevent the retarder oil warming up excessively.
2920
5. Flush the retarder, if the heat exchanger leaked: 2918
To flush the retarder, fill it with 5,4 litres of engine- or flushing oil. Apply the brakes gently several
times to flush out the retarder system and drain the oil through the central oil-drain plug (2919). 2919
FD344
Repeat the procedure 2 or 3 times.

Coat new O-rings (2918 und 2920) with silicone-free and non-corrosive grease and fit them on to
the central oil-drain plug (2919).

Screw central oil-drain plug (2919) tight with new sealing ring (2921). Tightening torque 55 Nm

Fill in retarder oil (see Section 3.2).

Position as per: August 1997

Generally the information coming from the vehicle manufacturer is applicable and to be observed!
However, if no information is available, please observe the following specifications.

1. Water

1.1 Use clean water for treatment of the cooling medium, as specified in chapters 2.1, 2.2 and
2.3. Drinking water normally, but not always, meets the requirements. Not suitable are sea water,
brackish water, salt water and industrial waste water. Avoid suspended particles in the water,
especially those containing copper.

For any information required on the water quality please contact the local waterworks or the
water supply plant in charge. In case that information on the water quality is not available
use distilled or demineralized water for mixing. If the water does not meet the admissible
analysis values, treat the water suitably.

Please refer to chapter 2 regarding admissible analysis values.

2. Composition of coolant

2.1 Normal case

50 % by volume water
50 % by volume corrosion preventive and antifreezing agent*; antifreeze down to approx. -37 °C

Admissible analysis values:

agent!

2.3 Exception in frost-proof countries

Field of application: at permanent ambient temperatures above the freezing point and if provably
neither released corrosion preventive and antifreezing agent nor coolant additive are available,
the coolant may have the following mixing:

99 % by volume water
1 % by volume processing agent***

Admissible analysis values:

Sum of alkaline earths (water hardness): max. 2.7 mmol/l = max. 15° German hardness
= max. 27° French hardness
= max. 19° British hardness

Inevitably, it is impossible for VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG in the last analysis to assess all situations
which might entail the risk of injury for the person carrying out the work. It is therefore imperative that
any person carrying out repair work on VOITH retarders uses his professional knowledge to make sure
that his own safety is not endangered and that the retarder suffers no negative effects, in particular
safety-wise, through the chosen working procedure. For these reasons, no liability can be assumed for
damage incurred.

It is therefore expressly pointed out that all working procedures described must be carried out only in
compliance with the valid general directions and regulations of the locally responsible authorities, of the
health protection, accident prevention and environmental protection organisations.

The technical status of the present instructions can be seen from the updating index. There may be
discrepancies between the actual technical status of the retarders and the descriptions owing to
continuous development and improvement of the retarders.

Description of the function


The VOITH Retarder 120 is a powerful hydrodynamic continous brake of compact design for buses and
commercial vehicles of the medium range. The VOITH Retarder 120 is mounted between the gearbox
and the rear axle of the vehicle.
The retarder braking torque is sustained even when gear changes are made.
The switched-on retarder will not secure a parked vehicle.
In the event of a retarder failure or when the temperature limit is effective, the service brake must be
used to regulate the vehicle speed.

A retarder stage switch (16) with a maximum of 5 switching stages is used to control the
VOITH Retarders 120. A special version combines the retarder stage switch (16) with ABS,
a 3-stage pedal-operated brake valve or a service-brake pressure switch.

The following variaties in operation are available:

Operation with function ,,Constant speed"


The retarder is operated by a 5-stage retarder stage switch.

When the retarder stage switch (16) is shifted to position 1, the „Constant Speed“ function is activated.
The present speed is memorized and the retarder holds the vehicle to this speed downhill within the limit
of the maximum braking torque.

If the retarder is switched off (0 position), or switched to braking stage (position 2 to 5), the memorized
constant speed is deleted. If the constant speed function is re-activated, the new present speed
is memorized.

When the retarder stage switch is shifted to position 2 to 5, braking stage 1 to 4 is energized.

Maximum braking torque is obtained when the retarder stage switch is in the maximum position.

Description of operation of retarder R 120 with digiprop control system


c
As a special version, the control system is available with push button operation for constant speed.
The retarder is operated in this case by a 4-stage retarder stage switch.
When the push button is pushed in any position of the retarder stage switch, the momentary speed is
transferred to memory. In the 0 braking stage, this transfer to memory takes effect and the retarder holds
the vehicle speed downhill constant within the limits of the maximum braking torque. Another push on
the push button in any switch position will delete the speed data. a b
On a downhill run with „constant speed“ operation, the vehicle can be slowed down within the limits of
the maximum braking torque and the temperature limit, for an obstacle ahead (e.g. bend) by shifting to
braking positions 1 to 4. If the retarder stage switch is then shifted to position 0, the vehicle accelerates
to the speed previously transferred to memory.
FD299
The control medium for the Voith Retarder 120 is compressed air, which is taken from the air tank for
auxiliary equipment on the vehicle. The hydrodynamic principle
a Rotor (46)
When the retarder stage switch (16) is operated, an input signal is fed to the control unit (2). b Stator (44)
From this input signal, the control unit (2) provides a control current which flows to the c Oil flow
proportional valve (21).
The proportional valve (21), depending on the magnitude of the control current, provides a
constant-air pressure py on the oil sump (43).

The constant-air pressure py in the oil sump (43), depending on the operating conditions
(prop shaft speed), forces a certain quantity of oil into the working chamber between rotor (46)
and stator (44).

The rotor (46) is connected with the retarder drive shaft, the stator (44) is stationary with the retarder
housing.
The rotation of the rotor sets the oil in motion and circulates it in a closed circuit between
the rotor (46) and stator (44).
The reduction of the velocity of the oil flow in the chambers of the stator (44) leads to braking of
the rotor (46) and consequently to braking of the vehicle.

During braking, the kinetic energy of a deceleration is transformed into heat. To dissipate this heat, part
of the circulating oil is pumped continuously by the rotor (46) through the heat exchanger (3300) and via
filling ducts to join the circulating flow again.
In the heat exchanger (3300), the heat energy of the oil is transferred to the cooling water of the vehicle
and dissipated via the vehicle radiator to the ambient air.

Temperatur pick-ups, water (19), oil (20)


The temperature pick-ups are installed in the cooling system of the vehicle (cooling return circle from the
retarder to the the heat exchanger) and in the retarder oil duct and transmit signals on cooling water and
oil temperature to the control unit (2).
To prevent the temperatures preset in the control unit (2) for water and oil being exceeded, the retarder
braking torque is limited to protect the vehicle cooling system and the retarder.
The constant-air pressure py is limited.

The braking torque and consequently the heat generated are reduced until a balance is obtained
between the braking energy of the retarder and the amount of heat which can be dissipated by
the vehicle cooling system.

If the cooling water temperature rises into the temperature limit range, the consequence is a limitation of
the retarder braking torque to protect the vehicle cooling system. If the temperature rises above the
temperature limit range, there is no more braking torque output.

While the temperature limit is effective or if there is a retarder failure, the service brake must be used to
control the vehicle.
The control unit (2) also cuts back braking torque if oil temperature rises too rapidly, irrespective of actual
oil temperature.

Casing ventilation (23)


During braking, the oil displaces the air present in the working circuit via the casing ventilation (23) and
the ventilation system (22) out of the retarder.
Once the working circuit is free of air, a float rises and closes the casing ventilation.

Stator pins (45)


When the working chamber is empty, the rotor (46) sets up in it an air flow, which is retarded by the stator
(44). To minimize this loss, automatically operating stator pins have been installed in the outer zone of
the stator blades. The pin plates steer the accelerated airflow past the stator blades and prevent the
build-up of an effective flow. When the working chamber is full of oil, the oil presses the plates back on
their seats against the force of the spring and the full space between the blades is available.

Check valve (66) stainless-steel heat exchanger


The check valve (66) prevents the airflow emptying the heat exchanger insert of oil when idling.

Inevitably, it is impossible for VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG in the last analysis to assess all situations
which might entail the risk of injury for the person carrying out the work. It is therefore imperative that
any person carrying out repair work on VOITH retarders uses his professional knowledge to make sure
that his own safety is not endangered and that the retarder suffers no negative effects, in particular
safety-wise, through the chosen working procedure. For these reasons, no liability can be assumed for
damage incurred.

It is therefore expressly pointed out that all working procedures described must be carried out only in
compliance with the valid general directions and regulations of the locally responsible authorities, of the
health protection, accident prevention and environmental protection organisations.

The technical status of the present instructions can be seen from the updating index. There may be
discrepancies between the actual technical status of the retarders and the descriptions owing to
continuous development and improvement of the retarders.
VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG reserves the right to make modifications at any time and without
prior notification.

Description of the function


The VOITH Retarder 120 - 120S is a powerful hydrodynamic continous brake of compact design for
buses and commercial vehicles of the medium range. The VOITH Retarder 120 -120S is located
between the gearbox and the rear axle of the vehicle. The retarder braking torque is sustained even
when gear changes are made.
A switched-on retarder will not secure a parked vehicle.

A retarder stage switch (16) with a maximum of 5 switching stages is used to control the
VOITH Retarders 120 - 120S. A special version combines the retarder stage switch (16) with ABS,
a 3-stage pedal-operated brake valve or a service-brake pressure switch.

The following variaties in operation are available:

a) Operation with function ,,Constant speed"


The retarder is operated by a 5-stage retarder stage switch.

When the retarder stage switch (16) is shifted to position 1, the „Constant Speed“ function is activated.
The present speed is memorized and the retarder holds the vehicle to this speed downhill within the limit
of the maximum braking torque.

If the retarder is switched off (0 position), or switched to braking stage (position 2 to 5), the memorized
constant speed is deleted.

If the constant speed function is re-activated, the new present speed is memorized.When the retarder
stage switch is shifted to position 2 to 5, braking stage 1 to 4 is energized. Maximum braking torque is
obtained when the retarder stage switch is in the maximum position.

General   


 
 
(Continue)

b) Operation without function ,,Constant speed"


The retarder is operated by a 5-stage retarder stage switch.
When the retarder stage switch is shifted to position 1to 5 the retarder is braking in brake stage 1 to 5.
The maximum braking torque is obtained when the retarder stage switch is in position 5.

There are two versions of the retarder:

Retarder 120

with a prop shaft speed of max. 2800 r.p.m.

Retarder 120 S

with a prop shaft speed of max. 4800 r.p.m.


This retarder has a „S“ at the end of the retarder number.
If you have any questions, please contact VOITH TURBO.

Both retarder versions are identical in operation and maintenance.

Description of operation of retarder R 120 - 120 S with logoprop control system


c
The control medium for the Voith Retarder 120 - 120 S is compressed air, which is taken from the air
tank for auxiliary equipment on the vehicle.
When the retarder stage switch (16) is operated, an input signal is fed to the control unit (2).
From this input signal, the control unit (2) provides a control current which flows to the
proportional valve (21). The proportional valve (21), depending on the magnitude of the control current,
provides a constant-air pressure py on the oil sump (43). a b
The constant-air pressure py in the oil sump (43), depending on the operating conditions
(prop shaft speed), forces a certain quantity of oil into the working chamber between rotor (46)
and stator (44).

The rotor (46) is connected with the retarder drive shaft, the stator (44) is stationary with the retarder
FD299
housing.
The rotation of the rotor sets the oil in motion and circulates it in a closed circuit between The hydrodynamic principle
the rotor (46) and stator (44). a Rotor (46)
The reduction of the velocity of the oil flow in the chambers of the stator (44) leads to braking of b Stator (44)
the rotor (46) and consequently to braking of the vehicle. c Oil flow

During braking, the kinetic energy of a deceleration is transformed into heat. To dissipate this heat, part
of the circulating oil is pumped continuously by the rotor (46) through the heat exchanger (1000) and via
filling ducts to join the circulating flow again.
In the heat exchanger (1000), the heat energy of the oil is transferred to the cooling water of the vehicle
and dissipated via the vehicle radiator to the ambient air.

Temperatur pick-up water (19)


The temperature pick-up installed in the retarder cooling water return pipe monitors the cooling water
temperature and trnsmits appropriate signals to the control unit (2).

This temperature pick-up guarantees that the maximum permissible cooling water temperatures are not
exceeded.

If the cooling water in the return pipe heats up to a preselected temperature, the constant-air
pressure py decreases linearly over a range of approx. 10o C at the highest braking stage.

The braking torque and consequently the heat generated are reduced until a balance is obtained
between the braking energy of the retarder and the amount of heat which can be dissipated by the
vehicle cooling system.

If the limit range of approx. 10o C is exceeded while braking, braking torque output is stopped to protect
the vehicle cooling system.

While the temperature limit is effective or if there is a retarder failure, the service brake must be used to
control the vehicle.

Casing ventilation (23)


During braking, the oil displaces the air present in the working circuit via the casing ventilation (23) and
the ventilation system (22) out of the retarder.
Once the working circuit is free of air, a float rises and closes the casing ventilation.

Stator pins (45)


When the working chamber is empty, the rotor (46) sets up in it an air flow, which is retarded by the stator
(44). To minimize this loss, automatically operating stator pins have been installed in the outer zone of
the stator blades. The pin plates steer the accelerated airflow past the stator blades and prevent the
build-up of an effective flow. When the working chamber is full of oil, the oil presses the plates back on
their seats against the force of the spring and the full space between the blades is available.

Retarder pilot light comes on permanently


The retarder is switched on, i.e., the retarder stage switch is switched to one of its five possible
switch positions.

Retarder pilot light flashes


1 on moving off
This flashing occurs at low ambient temperatures in braking stage 1 to 5 and goes off as soon as
the vehicle has reached its operating temperature.
However, the retarder itself is completely ready for operation.

2 during braking with the retarder


• The temperature limit is effective - the retarder regulates its braking torque down.
• The control unit identifies a discontinuity to the temperature pick-up.

Inevitably, it is impossible for VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG in the last analysis to assess all situations
which might entail the risk of injury for the person carrying out the work. It is therefore imperative that
any person carrying out repair work on VOITH retarders uses his professional knowledge to make sure
that his own safety is not endangered and that the retarder suffers no negative effects, in particular
safety-wise, through the chosen working procedure. For these reasons, no liability can be assumed for
damage incurred.

It is therefore expressly pointed out that all working procedures described must be carried out only in
compliance with the valid general directions and regulations of the locally responsible authorities, of the
health protection, accident prevention and environmental protection organisations.

The technical status of the present instructions can be seen from the updating index. There may be
discrepancies between the actual technical status of the retarders and the descriptions owing to
continuous development and improvement of the retarders.
VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG reserves the right to make modifications at any time and without
prior notification.

Should you have queries about the descriptions, please contact the responsible person in the
appropriate organisation of the country involved or:

Description of the function


The VOITH Retarder 133-2 is a powerful, hydrodynamic, continuous brake of compact design for buses
and commercial vehicles in the heavy range. The VOITH Retarder 133-2 is located in a vehicle drive
train between gearbox and rear axle. In this way, the retarder braking torque is sustained even when
gear changes are made. The switched-on retarder will not secure a parked vehicle.

A retarder stage switch (16) with a maximum of 5 switching stages is used to control the
VOITH Retarder 133-2. A special version combines the retarder stage switch (16) with ABS,
a 3-stage pedal-operated brake valve or a service-brake pressure switch.

The following variaties in operation are available:

Operation with function ,,Constant speed"


The retarder is operated by a 5-stage retarder stage switch.

When the retarder stage switch is shifted to position 1, the momentary speed is transferred to memory
and the retarder holds the vehicle speed downhill constant within the limits of the maximum braking tor-
que.

If after activation of „constant speed“ operation the retarder is switched off (0 position), or switched to
braking stage (position 2 to 5), the memorized constant speed is deleted. If the constant speed function
is re-activated, the new present speed is memorized.

When the retarder stage switch is shifted to position 2 to 5, braking stage 1 to 4 is energized.

Maximum braking torque is obtained when the retarder stage switch is in the maximum position.

Description of operation of retarder R 133-2 with digiprop control system


c
The control medium for the Voith Retarder 133-2 is compressed air, which is taken from the air tank for
auxiliary equipment on the vehicle.

When the retarder stage switch (16) is operated, an input signal is fed to the control unit (2).
From this input signal, the control unit (2) provides a control current which flows to the
proportional valve (21). a b
The proportional valve (21), depending on the magnitude of the control current, provides a
constant-air pressure py on the oil sump (43).

The constant-air pressure py in the oil sump (43), depending on the operating conditions
(prop shaft speed), forces a certain quantity of oil into the working chamber between rotor (46)
and stator (44).
FD299

The rotor (46) is connected with the retarder drive shaft, the stator (44) is stationary with the retarder The hydrodynamic principle
housing. a Rotor (46)
The rotation of the rotor sets the oil in motion and circulates it in a closed circuit between b Stator (44)
the rotor (46) and stator (44). c Oil flow
The reduction of the velocity of the oil flow in the chambers of the stator (44) leads to braking of
the rotor (46) and consequently to braking of the vehicle.

During braking, the kinetic energy of a deceleration is transformed into heat. To dissipate this heat, part
of the circulating oil is pumped continuously by the rotor (46) through the heat exchanger (3300) and via
filling ducts to join the circulating flow again.
In the heat exchanger (3300), the heat energy of the oil is transferred to the cooling water of the vehicle
and dissipated via the vehicle radiator to the ambient air.

Temperatur pick-ups, water (19), oil (20)


The temperature pick-ups are installed in the cooling system of the vehicle (cooling return circle from the
retarder to the the heat exchanger) and in the retarder oil duct and transmit signals on cooling water and
oil temperature to the control unit (2).
To prevent the temperatures preset in the control unit (2) for water and oil being exceeded, the retarder
braking torque is limited to protect the vehicle cooling system and the retarder.
The constant-air pressure py is limited.

The braking torque and consequently the heat generated are reduced until a balance is obtained
between the braking energy of the retarder and the amount of heat which can be dissipated by
the vehicle cooling system.

If the cooling water temperature rises into the temperature limit range, the consequence is a limitation of
the retarder braking torque to protect the vehicle cooling system. If the temperature rises above the
temperature limit range, there is no more braking torque output.

While the temperature limit is effective or if there is a retarder failure, the service brake must be used to
control the vehicle.
The control unit (2) also cuts back braking torque if oil temperature rises too rapidly, irrespective of actual
oil temperature.

Casing ventilation (23)


During braking, the oil displaces the air present in the working circuit via the casing ventilation (23) and
the ventilation system (22) out of the retarder.
Once the working circuit is free of air, a float rises and closes the casing ventilation.

Sump check valve (58)


Any small amounts of leakage oil present on the shaft sealing rings are collected by the labyrinth and
returned via the leakage oil return line (56), the sump check valve and the duct (54) into the auxiliary
chambers (68), and thus to the oil sump (43).

When the retarder is switched off, the compressed air escapes via the auxiliary chambers (68) and the
breather (22) into the open air and simultaneously acts on the sump check valve via the duct (54).
The aluminium disc is pushed upwards by the compressed-air and closes the leakage oil return line (56).
Oil is thus prevented from escaping via the labyrinth selas when the retarder is switched off.

Sump flap valve (59)


When the retarder is switched on, the oil sump (43) is pressurized with compressed air.
The oil sump (43) is seperated from the auxiliary chambers (68).

After the retarder has been switched off, the sump flap valve opens again and the oil can level out
between the oil sump (43) and the auxiliary chambers (68).

Stator pins (45)


When the working chamber is empty, the rotor (46) sets up in it an air flow, which is retarded by the
stator (44). This causes a power loss. To minimize this loss, automatically operating stator pins have
been installed in the outer zone of the stator blades. The pin plates steer the accelerated airflow past the
stator blades and prevent the build-up of an effective flow. When the working chamber is full of oil, the
oil presses the plates back on their seats against the force of the spring and the full space between the
blades is available.

Housing pressure changeover valve (60)


The housing pressure changeover valve (60) regulates bearing lubrication when the retarder is idling.

Overview of maintenance work

Carry out the following maintenance work at each oil change:

l Clean the cleaning line filter (optional extra)


l Carry out visual inspection on leaks at the complete retarder
l Check hex.-head screws of prop shaft on correct fitment, or tighten. Observe guidelines and
instructions!

l Tighten all screw plugs of the retarder basic groups and the heat exchanger with the appropriate
torque (see Annex) except all fastening nuts of the heat exchanger (see Section 8)!

Caution!

The fastening nuts of the heat exchanger (Dilavar) only may be tightened in the case of an unambiguous
leakage. Tightening torque 46 Nm

Achtung!

Don´t tight with an impact tool.


When studs (Dilavar) are tightened too high this causes a damage of the studs and may crack at once
or during the driving session.

The oil change intervals and operating specifications have to be taken from the annex!

Multimeter recommended: Fluke 87

Notice

The blinking code of the retarder pilot light (as of Digiprop-Version 1.0) can be used to obtain a read-out
from the fault memory.

Furthermore a diagnosis with the PC „DigiDia“ software is possible. In this case please contact
VOITH TURBO or a responsible contracting party.

Fault memory read-out via retarder pilot light blinking code

R
Notice

If several faults have been stored in the memory, they are indicated in the sequence of their occurance,
but always only one fault per triggering.
Exception:
The fault „Coding fault“ is not held in the memory but is indicated via the blinking code.

The blinking code can be read-out of the control unit with service cable or retarder stage switch.

FD844
Fault memory read-out with service cable
(Digiprop-Version 0.2)

Requirements
- Retarder stage switch in position 0
- Vehicle in parking position, Ignition ON
1. Service interface L-lead connected to ground for ≥ 2 s. For this purpose, press push-button of
service cable switch.

2. First fault as blinking code output.

3. Repeat from step 2 and 3 for more blinking code outputs.


Meaning
- long blinking signals (2 sec.) tens unit.
- short blinking signals (0,5 sec.) single unit.

Digiprop-Version 1.0
The blinking code can be triggered analogous to V 0.2, the conditions are the same. Additionally the
blinking code can be triggered with the help of the retarder stage switch during the service function:

1. Shift RSS-Position 0
2. Shift RSS-Position 1 ( ≥ 2 Seconds)
3. Shift RSS-Position 0
4. Blinking code of first fault is indicated
5. Repeat from step 2 to 3 for more blinking code outputs

Addition for versions as of V 1.1

There is a break of 3 seconds before and after each blinking code output, during this time the retarder
pilot light is switched off.
Display example: Fault code 23
Display example for fault code 23:
E Retarder stage switch on
A Retarder stage switch off
The number of tens will be indicated first as long ON-time: each 2 seconds t Time
The number of singles afterwards will be indicated as short ON-time: each 0,5 seconds
Breaks between each ON-time: each 1 second

If a relevant fault is indicated, the retarder pilot light is ON before triggering of the blinking code, the
retarder pilot light switches to permanent lighting again after the blinking code.
If there is only one fault in the memory, the retarder pilot light stays OFF after the output.

Inevitably, it is impossible for VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG in the last analysis to assess all situations
which might entail the risk of injury for the person carrying out the work. It is therefore imperative that
any person carrying out repair work on VOITH retarders uses his professional knowledge to make sure
that his own safety is not endangered and that the retarder suffers no negative effects, in particular
safety-wise, through the chosen working procedure. For these reasons, no liability can be assumed for
damage incurred.

It is therefore expressly pointed out that all working procedures described must be carried out only in
compliance with the valid general directions and regulations of the locally responsible authorities, of the
health protection, accident prevention and environmental protection organisations.

The technical status of the present instructions can be seen from the updating index. There may be
discrepancies between the actual technical status of the retarders and the descriptions owing to
continuous development and improvement of the retarders.
VOITH TURBO GmbH & Co. KG reserves the right to make modifications at any time and without
prior notification.

Description of the function


The VOITH Retarder 133 is a powerful, hydrodynamic, continuous brake of compact design for buses
and commercial vehicles in the heavy range. The VOITH Retarder 133 is located in a vehicle drive train
between gearbox and rear axle. In this way, the retarder braking torque is sustained even when gear
changes are made. The switched-on retarder will not secure a parked vehicle.

A retarder stage switch (16) with a maximum of 5 switching stages is used to control the
VOITH Retarder 133. A special version combines the retarder stage switch (16) with ABS,
a 3-stage pedal-operated brake valve or a service-brake pressure switch.

The following variaties in operation are available:

Operation with function ,,Constant speed"


The retarder is operated by a 5-stage retarder stage switch.

When the retarder stage switch is shifted to position 1, the momentary speed is transferred to memory
and the retarder holds the vehicle speed downhill constant within the limits of the maximum braking tor-
que.

If after activation of „constant speed“ operation the retarder is switched off (0 position), or switched to
braking stage (position 2 to 5), the memorized constant speed is deleted. If the constant speed function
is re-activated, the new present speed is memorized.

When the retarder stage switch is shifted to position 2 to 5, braking stage 1 to 4 is energized.

Maximum braking torque is obtained when the retarder stage switch is in the maximum position.

(Continue)

b) Control system without ,,constant speed"


The retarder is operated by a 5-stage retarder stage switch.
When the retarder stage switch is shifted to stage 1 to 5, the retarder brakes through braking stage
1 to 5. Maximum braking torque is obtained in braking stage 5.

Description of operation of retarder R 133 with logoprop control system


c
The control medium for the Voith Retarder 133 is compressed air, which is taken from the air tank for
auxiliary equipment on the vehicle.

When the retarder stage switch (16) is operated, an input signal is fed to the control unit (2).
From this input signal, the control unit (2) provides a control current which flows to the
proportional valve (21). a b
The proportional valve (21), depending on the magnitude of the control current, provides a
constant-air pressure py on the oil sump (43).

The constant-air pressure py in the oil sump (43), depending on the operating conditions
(prop shaft speed), forces a certain quantity of oil into the working chamber between rotor (46)
and stator (44).
FD299

The rotor (46) is connected with the retarder drive shaft, the stator (44) is stationary with the retarder The hydrodynamic principle
housing. a Rotor (46)
The rotation of the rotor sets the oil in motion and circulates it in a closed circuit between b Stator (44)
the rotor (46) and stator (44). c Oil flow
The reduction of the velocity of the oil flow in the chambers of the stator (44) leads to braking of
the rotor (46) and consequently to braking of the vehicle.

During braking, the kinetic energy of a deceleration is transformed into heat. To dissipate this heat, part
of the circulating oil is pumped continuously by the rotor (46) through the heat exchanger (1) and via
filling ducts to join the circulating flow again.
In the heat exchanger (1), the heat energy of the oil is transferred to the cooling water of the vehicle and
dissipated via the vehicle radiator to the ambient air.

Temperature pick-up cooling water (19)


The temperature pick-up installed in the retarder cooling water return pipe monitors the cooling water
temperature and transmits appropriate signals to the control unit (2).

This temperature pick-up guarantees that the maximum permissible cooling water temperatures are not
exceeded.

If the cooling water in the return pipe heats up to a preselected value, the constant-air pressure py
decreases linearly over a range of approx. 10°C at the highest braking stage.

The braking torque and consequently the heat generated are reduced until a balance is obtained
between the braking energy of the retarder and the amount of heat which can be dissipated by the
vehicle cooling system.

If the limit range of approx. 10°C is exceeded while braking, graking torque output is stopped to protect
the vehicle cooling system.

While the temperature limit is effective or if there is a retarder failure, the service brake must be used to
control the vehicle.

Casing ventilation (23)


During braking, the oil displaces the air present in the working circuit via the casing ventilation (23) and
the ventilation system (22) out of the retarder.
Once the working circuit is free of air, a float rises and closes the casing ventilation.
Sump check valve (58)
Any small amounts of leakage oil present on the shaft sealing rings are collected by the labyrinth and
returned via the leakage oil return line (56), the sump check valve and the duct (54) into the auxiliary
chambers (68), and thus to the oil sump (43).

When the retarder is switched off, the compressed air escapes via the auxiliary chambers (68) and the
breather (22) into the open air and simultaneously acts on the sump check valve via the duct (54).
The aluminium disc is pushed upwards by the compressed-air and closes the leakage oil return line (56).
Oil is thus prevented from escaping via the labyrinth selas when the retarder is switched off.

Sump flap valve (59)


When the retarder is switched on, the oil sump (43) is pressurized with compressed air.
The oil sump (43) is seperated from the auxiliary chambers (68).

After the retarder has been switched off, the sump flap valve opens again and the oil can level out
between the oil sump (43) and the auxiliary chambers (68).

Stator pins (45)


When the working chamber is empty, the rotor (46) sets up in it an air flow, which is retarded by the
stator (44). This causes a power loss. To minimize this loss, automatically operating stator pins have
been installed in the outer zone of the stator blades. The pin plates steer the accelerated airflow past the
stator blades and prevent the build-up of an effective flow. When the working chamber is full of oil, the
oil presses the plates back on their seats against the force of the spring and the full space between the
blades is available.

Requirements for check


• Battery voltage 18 - 32 V
• Electrical system checked in accordance with the Owner´s Manual for the vehicle R
and found satisfactory.
• Constant-air pressure 6 -11 bar
• Retarder oil level satisfactory

The following operational states are indicated by the retarder pilot light (arrow):

Retarder pilot light without indication


FD844
The retarder is switched off.

Retarder pilot light comes on permanently


The retarder is switched on, i.e., the retarder stage switch is switched to one of its five possible
switch positions.

Retarder pilot light flashes


1 on moving off
This flashing occurs at low ambient temperatures in braking stage 1 to 5 and goes off as soon as
the vehicle has reached its operating temperature.
However, the retarder itself is completely ready for operation.

2 during braking with the retarder


• The temperature limit is effective - the retarder regulates its braking torque down.
• The control unit identifies a discontinuity to the temperature pick-up.
