SECTION I GENRAL INFORMATION 1.1
PURPOSE OF EQUIPMENT The Broken Joint and Overrun Detector (BJORD-10, refer to
Figure 1-1} provides a means of detecting electrically defective insulated rail joints and also detects the passage of train wheels at interlocking boundries (bond locations).
The BJORD-10 operation
is particularly necessary to prevent cab signal spillover from an interlocking track circuit into an approach track, and is also used by the wayside signal system to determine if a train has overrun a stop signal. 1.2
SCOPE OF OPERATION The BJORD-10 is an audio-frequency device, consisting of a
mitter and receiver, which is installed at double impedance bond (Z bond} track locations.
Operating at a carrier frequency of 18 KHz,
modulated at 460 Hz, the transmitter output is connected across an insulated joint of one rail.
The receiver is connected across the
opposite insulated joint at the same location.
The transmitter sig-
nal is coupled to the receiver via the autotransformer action of the
z
bond.
The receiver input signal strength is sufficient for the
receiver output signal to energize a vital output relay which interfaces with the wayside signaling system.
Should the insulated
joint(s) break down for some reason, or should a train pass over the insulated joints, signal energy from the transmitter is shunted away from the receiver input.
When this occurs, the receiver output sig-
nal becomes insufficient to maintain the vital output relay in the energized (picked} condition and the relay armature drops. 1.3
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION (See Figure 1-2) The BJORD-10 components are housed in a metal case with remov-
able top and front covers.
Attached to the underside of the top
cover are two brackets which support the transmitter and receiver printed circuit boards.
The top side of the cover has an AAR 8-
terminal block, fuse holder for a 3-ampere slo-blo fuse, and two feed-through grommets for wiring internal boards to the AAR terminals.
The terminal block provides all connections for input 1-1

power (+12 vdc), transmitter output, receiver input and relay drive output.
The front cover is perforated to permit air circulation to
transmitter heat-sink mounted components which are mounted to the component board.
Signals leads from the transmitter and receiver
printed circuit boards are hard-wired to their respective terminals on the component board (transmitter only) and AAR terminal block. The case is provided two mounting brackets which permit shelf, wall or rack installation. 1.4
SYSTEM COMPONENTS In operation, the BJORD-10 requires several external system
components which include a power supply, 18 KHz parallel resonant filters and a relay. 1.4.1
Power Supply
An external +12 vdc power supply (part no. J725709-0073) is required for operation of the BJORD-10 transmitter circuit.
This
supply must be capable of delivering +12 vdc +/- 5% at 5 amperes to the BATTERY (+and-) terminals of the BJORD-10. 1.4.2
Parallel Resonant Filter One or two 18 KHz parallel resonant filters (part no. N451561-
0301) are required for series connection between low impedance sources and the rails to prevent loading down the 18 KHz BJORD-10 signal. 1.4.3
Vital Relay A single vital relay of the type PN-lSOBH (N322511-006), having
a 400 ohm coil, is required to interface with the wayside signaling system.
The receiver output is connected between relay terminals
+T and -A.

SECTION II INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENTS 2.1
INSTALLATION
2.1.1
Wayside Mounting The BJORD-10 must be installed within a 100 ft. cable run of
the insulated joints it services.
The unit should be installed
inside a standard wayside housing and is typically shelf-mounted. Place the BJORD-10 so that the grill on the side of the unit is well ventilated, and the AAR terminals and fuse are easily accessed. 2.1.2
Power Supply Interface CAUTION NO REVERSE POLARITY PROTECTION IS INCORPORATED INTO THE BJORD-10.
MAKE
CERTAIN CORRECT POLARITY IS OBSERVED WHEN CONNECTING WIRING, OTHERWISE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE MAY RESULT WHEN OPERATING POWER IS APPLIED. The BJORD-10 requires a power source of +12 vdc +/- 5% at 5 amperes. ohm.
The power supply lead resistance should not exceed 0.15
Therefore, if 14 gauge wire is used, 60 feet is the maximum
recommended lead length, and if 16 gauge wire is used, 35 feet is the maximum recommended lead length.
The BJORD-10 is protected by
a 3- ampere, 3 AG, 250-volt slo-blo fuse.
The power supply leads
should be twisted and contain at least 3 twists/foot for 14-, 12-, 10- or 6-gauge wire. 2.1.3
Track Interface (See Figure 2-1) The BJORD-10 is designed to operate into track circuits (with
a minimum ballast resistance of l/2-ohm/1000 feet) where the circuit on one side is no longer than 2500 feet.
The track leads should
be no smaller than 14 gauge and should not exceed 100 feet in length. The track leads should also be twisted, with 3 twists per foot for 14-, 12-, 9- or 6-gauge wire.
Figure 2-1 illustrates a typical
BJORD-10 installation in the wayside signaling system.
2-1
m
UNION SWITCH & SIGNAL
2.1.4
Vital Relay Interface The leads between the BJORD-10 and the vital relay should also
be twisted (3 twists/foot) and should not exceed 20 ohms in resistance. NOTE Once the BJORD-10 has been interconnected with the power supply, track circuits and vital relay, installation is complete.
The BJORD-10
requires no external adjustments, but must be checked for normal operation. 2.1.5
Installation Checks With power applied to the BJORD-10, the vital relay armature
should be in a picked position. following checks:
If this is not the case, make the

MINIMUM PERFORMANCE TESTS Following the installation checks, the BJORD-10 must undergo
shunting tests to insure proper operation.
These tests include rail
joint shunting (broken down joint detection) and rail-to-rail shunting (train detection). 2.2.1
Rail Joint Shunt Test Perform a rail joint shunt test as follows: 1.
Connect a 1.0~ohm resistor (Dale type RH-25, or equivalent) across insulated joint of one rail.
2.
Vital relay armature should drop away.
3.
Disconnect 1.0-ohm resistor across insulated joint and connect it across insulated joint of opposite rail.
4.
Vital relay armature should drop away.
If relay armature does not drop away, check system wiring and replace BJORD-10 with known good unit. 2.2.2
Rail-to-Rail Shunt Test Perform a rail-to-rail shunt test as follows: 1.
Connect a shorting jumper from rail-to-rail on one side of insulated rail joints.
2.
Relay armature should remain picked up.
3.
Remove shorting jumper and connect jumper from rail-to-rail on other side of insulated rail joints.
4.
Relay armature should remain picked up.
If vital relay armature drops, check for a low impedance loading the BJORD-10 signal.
The parallel resonant filter (N451561-0301) is
required to isolate the low impedance source from the BJORD-10 signal.
Repeat steps 1 through 4; if relay armature drops, replace the
BJORD-10 with a known good unit. 2. 2. 3
Rail-to-Rail Shunt Test (.Both Rails) Repeat step 1 of the previous section and connect a second rail-
to-rail on the other side of the insulated joints.
The vital relay
armature should drop.

SECTION III FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION 3.1
INTRODUCTION The BJORD-10 is intended to simplify the equipment require-
ments for monitoring of defective insulated joints.and train passage at interlocking boundries.
It was developed primarily for
operation on electrified railroads and performs two independent functions:
detection of electrically faulty insulated joint
material and detection of trains passing over insulated joints. The BJORD-10 uses separate transmitter and receiver circuits (operating with a modulated carrier frequency of 18 KHz) and uses a vital output relay for interfacing with the wayside signaling system. 3.2
Figure 3-1 illustrates the principal BJORD-10 functions.
BJORD-10 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
3.2.1
Transmitter
(See Figure 3-2)
The transmitter generates an 18 Khz carrier frequency, modulated at 460 Hz, and operates into a 5-ohm output impedance capable od delivering two amperes into a short circuit.
The transmitter
consists of carrier oscillator Ql, modulation frequency generator ICl, modulation amplifier Q2/Q3 and power amplifier Q4 through Q7. 3.2.1.1
Carrier Oscillator
The carrier oscillator circuit is a modified Colpitts, with capacitors C2 and C4 forming the tuning and divider functions for Ql.
The secondary winding return at the junction of R7 and R8 is
modulated with respect to ground by the frequency output from modulator ICl.

Modulation Frequency Generator
The modulation frequency generator consists of operational amplifier ICl connected in a familiar multivibrator configuration. Decoupling network R24/C8 prevents supply voltage variations from affecting multivibrator operation, while the combination of R9/C5, together with .a percentage of positive feedback via divider RlO, Rll and R12, determines the oscillation frequency of 460 Hz.
About 4
volts of the output signal swing at the junction of R7/R8 drives the secondary winding return of modulation transformer Tl to provide turnon bias for modulation amplifi~r Q2/Q3. 3.2.1.3
Modulation Amplifier
In the absence of the positive-going 4-volt, 460 Hz modulation signal, the input to modulation amplifier Q2 consists solely of the 18 kHz carrier signal (less than 1.0 volt peak-to-peak) from the secondary of transformer T1. Q2/Q3.
Consequently, no output occurs from
However, on the next half cycle of modulation, these tran-
sistors are biased "on", giving a voltage gain at the collector of Q3 determined by the ratio of the resonant impedance of T2, C6 plus R15 plus R16 divided by R15 plus R16 (the latter serving as a gain adjustment).
This resonant impedance is determined by "Q", since loading
by the following stage has been made negligible.
Q is in turn con-
trolled by R17, so it can be seen that no failure can raise the gain of this stage.
The output signal is coupled to the secondary winding
of transformer T2 which provides the required isolation between the modulation amplifier circuit and the power amplifier stages. 3.2.1.4
Power Amplifier
The power amplifier is of the push-pull type and consists of a pair of drivers Q5/Q6, which drive respective power output amplifiers Q4/Q7 (mounted on heat sink).
Each driver-amplifier combination is
arranged in a feedback connection such that gain is determined by the

impedance of a primary winding of T3 relative to emitter resistor R21 or R22.
The collectors of Q4 and Q7 each serve as a current
source and drive T3 as a parallel-resonant circuit whose impedance is determined by Q.
By using transformer coupling to the rails,
an isolated impedance match is provided at the carrier frequency, whereby the power amplifier circuit is presented with a high output impedance, while the rails see a low input impedance, since the secondary winding of T3, in conjunction with C9 and C9A combination appears as a series-resonant circuit.
The heat sink
power resistor establishes the output impedance.
At frequencies
lower than 18 Khz, the impedance of the series-resonant circuit increases sharply, thereby preventing the shunting of these signals. This arrangement allows one inductive output device to serve as both an impedance-matching transformer and a series-resonant circuit for coupling to the rails.
If output tuning capacitor C9
shorts, which would short the rail joint for low frequencies, the output signal is reduced by 1/Q,
(or 1/120} and the receiver output
would drop, causing the vital relay to drop.
Zener diodes D3 and
D4 provide surge current protection for respective power amplifiers Q4 and Q7; varistor Vl also provides surge protection. 3.2.2
Receiver
(See Figure 3-3)
The receiver is a passive device, since it requires no external
voltage for operation; it operates solely from the modula-
ted 18 KHz input signal and consists of a series-resonant input circuit, full wave demodulator and a series pass transi3tor, and a parallel-resonant output circuit.
This configuration results
in a receiver which is simple, relatively immune to noise and which does not require excessive transmitter power.

Operation
The receiver input consists of a series-resonant circuit provided by capacitor C1 and the primary winding of T1; varistor V1 provides current surge protection.
The approximate Q of this input
circuit is 20 which is achieved by the load characteristics of the following demodulator circuit and the vital output relay.
The
modulated carrier frequency of 18 kHz developed across the secondary winding of T1 is demodulated by full-wave rectifier D1/D2 and switching transistor Q1, thereby developing the highest possible percentage of input signal across the parallel-resonant output circuit consisting of capacitor C2 and the primary winding of T2.
This results in
transfer, by the secondary winding of T2, of maximum possible demodulated signal strength, which is converted to approximately +17 vdc for vital relay operation.

SECTION IV FIELD SERVICE MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING 4.1
GENERAL Field service maintenance and troubleshooting for the BJORD-10 is
accomplished at two levels; namely, preventive (scheduled) maintenance and corrective maintenance.
Both of these maintenance concepts are
important, especially the former, since it decreases the possibility of equipment and system down-time. 4.2
PREVENTIVE (SCHEDULED) MAINTENANCE Preventive maintenance is a scheduled process whereby the BJORD-
10 is cleaned, inspected and tested on a periodic basis to insure that all functions are operational; to detect future possible causes of equipment malfunction; and to preclude the possibility of a complete breakdown with resultant down-time and loss of operation of the wayside signaling system.
The following subparagraphs describe cleaning,
inspection and minimum performance test procedures for the BJORD-10. 4.2.1
Cleaning (Annually) Cleaning of the BJORD-10 assembly should be accomplished at least
once a year.
The following subparagraphs outline cleaning procedures
for the BJORD-10.
Table 4-1 lists the cleaning agents and materials
required, and their use. NOTE The BJORD-10 power supply
(J725709-0073), normally
shelf-mounted in close proximity to the BJORD-10, should also be cleaned at the same time as the BJORD-10.

Performance Tests Performance tests for the BJORD-10 should be accomplished on a
periodic 6-month basis to insure that all functions meet maximum performance criteria.
These performance tests are the same as outlined
in Section 2.2 following installation. 4.3
TROUBLESHOOTING Troubleshooting at the field level consists primarily of isolat-
ing wayside signaling system faults to the BJORD-10.
When this has
been determined, the faulty BJORD-10 is replaced and is then returned to the shop for repair and calibration.
Field troubleshooting is
based upon the minimum performance tests in section 2.2, which are performed following installation.
In general, if any one of these
tests are unsuccessful: 1.

components which have been found to be defective through the troubleshooting process.
In general, whenever components are to be replaced
on a printed circuit board: 1.
Always use a heat-sink, such as needle-nose pliers or alligator clips, on the leads of the component to be removed/ replaced, to prevent component damage.
2.
Use a low wattage soldering iron (35 watts maximum) with pencil tip for unsoldering component leads.
3.
Scrape away spraycoat from around component and leads prior to unsoldering component.

Setting Transmitter Gain Before setting the transmitter gain, the BJORD-10 must be
carefully tuned and connected in the test set up shown in Figure 5-2. The unit must be warmed up for at least 1/2 hour before setting the gain.
However, warmup in the test circuit can be avoided by jumpering
the transmitter to the receiver, Shorting Rl6, connecting a 400 ohm, 5 watt resistor to the relay terminals and applying power. 1.
Connect decade resistor across lugs of R16 and set for 0.0 ohms.
2.
Relay armature should be picked up.
Monitor relay coil voltage with a digital multimeter. Apply joint resistor RJ

If relay coil voltage is greater than 3.76 vdc, adjust R16 decade until 3.76 vdc is obtained.
Replace decade with a
1/2-watt carbon resistor and proceed to shunting tests outlined in Section 5.7.5.2. 4.
If relay coil voltage is approximately 3.76 vdc, replace R16 decade with a piece of bus wire and proceed to shunting tests of Section 5.7.5.2.

Receiver Input Current VS. Relay Voltage
The tracking relationship of the receiver input current vs. relay voltage should follow that shown on the graph of Figure 5-4. This data was obtained using the test configuration shown in Figure 5-2 as follows: 1.
The output power of the transmitter was adjusted to provide the variable input current to the receiver.
This
was accomplished by temporarily replacing R16 in the transmitter circuit with a decade resistor. 2.
Input current was measured using a Tektronix P6021 current probe and oscilloscope.
Therms value was calculated from
the peak-to-peak envelope. 5.7.5.5
Receiver Bandwidth Test
The front end filter response characteristics of the receiver should follow the graph of Figure 5-5.
This data was obtained using
the test configuration shown in Figure 5-5 as follows: 1.
The test signal used here was obtained from the tracking oscillator output of the HP3500 spectrum analyzer. This is a convenient source, as it is a sweeping oscillator which is necessary for this type of plot.
2.
The MC-40 Mcintosh Amplifier is used to provide the necessary current to the 5-ohm receiver input.
It is
necessary to choose the MC-40 output taps nearest the 5 ohms required. 3.
Spectrum analysis was obtained from that signal developed across the secondary of the front end transformer of the receiver.
4.
The test signal level was adjusted for a O db reference at the carrier frequency.

POST-REPAIR INSPECTION Upon completion of any maintenance to the BJORD-10, an internal
and external inspection should be performed as follows: 1.
All components and material must agree with bill of material and must be correctly installed per appropriate assembly drawing.
2.
All devices with polarity indicated must agree with markings on circuit board.
This includes diodes, electrolytic capaci-
tors, and transistors.
Diode polarity is indicated by a
band at its cathode, electrolytic capacitors by a"+" symbol, and transistors by arrangement of their lead wires. 3.
All solder connections must be bright and free of flux.
A
dull, wrinkled appearance indicates a cold solder joint. 4.
Transformers connected to circuit board with wires must agree with color code or numbering system, where appropriate.
5.
Receiver and transmitter boards must be identified as such, and circuit board nomenclature, such as part number and serial number, must be correct and legible.
6.
All mechanical fasteners, such as machine screws and nuts, must be secure and assembled in proper sequence according to drawings.
7.
Wires to AAR terminals on top cover should be properly terminated with specified crimped connectors, and AAR nuts should be securely tightened.
Each unit should be shipped
with a bag of hardware consisting of 16 binding nuts (AAR) and 16 washers (AAR). 8.
All internal wiring should conform to circuit diagram for color code.
All wires should be free of abrasions and
nicks in their insulation, and should have sufficient slack to permit disassembly without removing wires.
In particular,
wiring harness from transmitter to component board must allow free 180° hinging action of one board with respect to the other. 9.
Exterior surfaces of case should be clean and free of dust or grime.
