Solenoid valve (1) controls the oil flow in the compression brake housing.When the solenoid is activated, valve (1) moves downward. When valve (1) moves downward the valve closes the oil drain passage. This passage goes to the oil pan. At the same time, valve (1) opens low pressure oil passage (15) to three control valves (3). When low pressure passage (15) is filled with engine oil, control valves (3) are pushed up in the chamber. At this position, a groove in control valve (3) is in alignment with high pressure oil passage (4). The slave piston (10) and master piston (6) are supplied by the high pressure oil passage. Engine oil pressure will now lift ball check valve (13). High pressure oil passage (4) and the chambers behind the slave pistons and behind the master pistons will be filled with engine oil pressure. This pressure moves the master piston downward until contact is made with the engine valve mechanism. The oil pressure is now the same pressure in all the oil passages. This causes ball check valve (13) to seat. The system is completely charged and ready for operation. When the solenoid is activated, the compression brake is ready to operate in approximately 1/5 of a second.

Oil passage Schematic for front Housing (1) Solenoid valve (3) Control valves. (4) High pressure oil passage (6) Master piston (10) Slave pistons (15) Low pressure oil passageWhen the push rod (11) for the exhaust valves begins to move up on the normal exhaust stroke, the rocker arm (9) and the adjustment screw (8) move the master piston (6) upward. As the master piston (6) begins to move upward, the oil pressure increases in passage (4). This causes the ball check valve (13) to close. Since there is a constant increase in pressure with the rocker arm movement, the slave piston (10) is forced down with enough force to open exhaust valves (12) .This master-slave circuit is designed so that the master piston (6) is only moved by the exhaust rocker arm for a cylinder that is on the exhaust stroke. The slave piston (10) opens only the exhaust valves of a cylinder that is on the compression stroke. The valves are opened just before the piston reaches the top center position. The order is shown in the following table:
