Electrically Operated Air Shutoff Valves
Power up the engine control panel with both air shutoff valves latched in the open position and both switches connected. Both valves should remain open. Check the wiring for the switch if both valves do not remain open.
With the power to the engine control panel ON, activate the emergency stop button. Both of the air shutoff valves should close. If both air shutoff valves do not close, check the switch wiring and the solenoid wiring. If both air shutoff valves close, proceed to step 3.
Turn the power engine control panel to the OFF position. Ensure that the emergency stop button is in the run position. Latch only the right side air shutoff valve to the open position and turn the power for the engine control panel to the ON position. The right air shutoff valve should close. If the right air shutoff valve closes proceed to step 4. If the right air shutoff valve does not close, check the switch and wiring for the right air shutoff valve.
Turn power for the engine control panel to the OFF position. Ensure that the emergency stop button is in the run position. Latch only the left side air shutoff valve to the open position. Turn the power for the engine control to the ON position. The left air shutoff valve should close. If the left air shutoff valve closes the test is complete. If the left air shutoff valve does not close, check the switch and the wiring for the left air shutoff valve. Note: Testing is only complete when the engine successfully passes step 1 through step 4.Hydraulically Actuated Air Shutoff Valves
Note: After checking the fluids in the engine, ensure that both air shutoff valves are latched in the open position. Start the engine and operate the engine at 1500 RPM. This will allow the fluids to warm up before proceeding with the test for the air shutoff valves.
Manually trip one of the air shutoff valves. This should cause an emergency stop condition and the remaining air shutoff valve should close. If the engine experienced an emergency stop condition but the remaining valve did not close, purge the air from the line that goes to the hydraulic cylinder for the air shutoff valve. If the engine did not have an emergency stop condition the switches are not correctly wired into the emergency stop circuit. Note: Both switches should be in a closed state and both switches should show continuity when the air shutoffs are latched in the open position. After the issue with the wiring has been resolved repeat step 1.
Close one air shutoff valve and attempt to start the engine. If the engine cranks but the engine will not start, the switches are functioning correctly. Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) will also show an active emergency stop condition. Proceed to step 3. If the engine starts with one of the air shutoffs closed, check the switch on the valve that is closed. The switch should not
