ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM OF EMERGENCY AND SERVICE BRAKING FOR A RAILWAY VEHICLE

An electronic control system of emergency and service braking comprises an emergency brake module and a service brake module, each module including an independent and segregated electronic architecture. The service brake module receives a deceleration/service braking demand signal and generates a service braking pressure signal. The emergency brake module connected to the service brake module to receive the service braking pressure signal, receives a signal indicative of an emergency braking demand, generates a respective intermediate braking pressure signal indicating an emergency braking, generates a signal corresponding to the higher value between the service braking pressure signal and the intermediate braking pressure signal indicative of an emergency braking, which is converted to braking pressure.
