Method and device for controlling the supply of a pressure medium on rail vehicles (compressor-management)

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling the supply of pressurized vehicles of railway vehicles which are interconnected mechanically and in a pressurized medium within a railway assembly, where a suction medium supply is provided by a common condensate conduit running through each rail carriage, which is essentially supplied by a compression medium of each compressor in each rail carriage. The solution is that in accordance with the number of compressors available on the rail fitting, the priority order of the compressors is defined where the current pressure medium depends on the need of only a number of compressors operating in the order of priority of the current pressure fluid demand, temperature or moisture controlled by constant or random.
