Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A braking system for a machine including an accumulator configured to receive a pressurized fluid for storage thereof. A control valve disposed between the accumulator and the brake cylinder, the control valve configured to selectively allow discharged pressurized fluid from the accumulator to a brake cylinder. A pressure sensor disposed upstream of the control valve. Further, a controller configured to determine a pressure change in the accumulator using the pressure sensor during at least one of the pulsations of the control valve and compare the determined pressure change with a pre-determined threshold
