  • Patent number: 10843676
    Abstract: A compressed-air brake assembly for a rail vehicle includes at least one brake cylinder for producing a pressing force for a friction brake, wherein at least one control valve forms a corresponding brake-cylinder pressure in accordance with a pressure in a main air line conducted to the at least one brake cylinder via a line arranged therebetween. The at least one control valve interacts with at least one compressed-air sensor. A reserve-air tank can be controlled by the at least one control valve and stores the reserve air for the at least one brake cylinder. At least one compressed-air sensor arranged on the at least one control valve is connected to an energy source and a data memory having an interface for reading out data, wherein the data in the data memory contain information about a pressure level in the at least one brake cylinder.
