FUNCTION AND DESCRIPTION
The PP-7™ trailer supply valve provides in cab control for the tractor protection system and functions in conjunction with the park control valve. It is responsible for synchronizing the tractor and trailer parking and emergency brakes.
It is essentially a combination of two non-modulating, on-off control valves in a single, compact package.
Each of the four pipe tapped ports of the PP-7™ valve are identifi ed with cast in, raised letters. The supply and control ports have 1/8 inch N.P .T.F . dry seal pipe threads while the delivery and exhaust ports have 1/4 inch N.P.T .F. dry seal pipe threads.

GENERAL OPERATION
The PP-7™ trailer supply valve is a dash panel mounted, push-pull operated control valve. The button of the PP-7™ valve must be manually depressed, but will automatically pop out and exhaust if supply air is below 40 p.s.i. Fifty p.s.i. or greater supply air pressure is required for the button to remain in after it is depressed, and it will remain in until supply air pressure falls below 40 P.S.I. or until the valve is manually actuated.
OPERATION - LESS THAN 50 P.S.I. SYSTEM PRESSURE
With less than 50 P.S.I. system air pressure, the button of the PP-7™ valve will remain out, and the park control valve will not deliver air to the control port of the PP-7™ valve. In this condition supply air cannot fl ow past the closed plunger inlet, and the plunger exhaust valve is off its seat. With no air pressure on the control port, the control inlet is seated, and the exhaust passage through the control piston is open.
OPERATION - ABOVE 50 P.S.I. SYSTEM AIR PRESSURE
When system air pressure is greater than 50 P.S.I., the button of the PP-7™ valve can be depressed and will stay in. If the vehicle is in the running condition, the park control valve will be delivering system air pressure to the control port of the PP-7™ valve. (See Note.)
With the button of the PP-7™ valve depressed, the plunger
inlet will be open and the exhaust valve will be seated, sealing the exhaust vent. Supply air is permitted to fl ow through the body to the control inlet and exhaust valve. With the park control valve delivering full system pressure to the control port of the PP-7™ valve, the control piston moves into contact with the control valve, closing the exhaust passage through the piston and opening the inlet. Opening the control inlet permits supply air to fl ow out the delivery port of the PP-7™ valve. (See Note.)
NOTE: If the vehicle is parked and system air pressure is
above 50 P.S.I., the park control valve will not be delivering air to the PP-7™ valve control port and the control inlet valve will be closed. In this case no air will be fl owing from the delivery port of the
valve.

OPERATION - MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY
MANUAL
In order to disconnect the tractor and trailer, the button of the PP-7™ valve is pulled by the operator. Pulling the button closes the plunger inlet and unseats the exhaust valve. Air that was fl owing out the delivery port returns to the PP-7™ valve and is exhausted from the vent in the midsection of the PP-7™ valve.
NOTE: If the parking brakes were applied prior to pulling
the PP-7™ valve button, no delivery air would be present to exhaust. Delivery air would have been exhausted when the parking brakes were applied. See “Operation Park Application.”

OPERATION - PARK APPLICATION
During a parking brake application, the park control valve removes air pressure from the control port of the PP-7™ valve. The button of the PP-7™ valve remains in.
With air pressure removed from the control port of the PP-7™ valve, the control piston moves away from the control inlet and exhaust valve. The inlet valve seats and the exhaust passage through the control piston is open. Air at the delivery port of the PP-7™ valve is exhausted at the exhaust port of the PP-7™ valve.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Important: Review the Bendix Warranty Policy before
performing any intrusive maintenance procedures. A warranty may be voided if intrusive maintenance is performed during the warranty period.
No two vehicles operate under identical conditions, as a result, maintenance intervals may vary. Experience is a valuable guide in determining the best maintenance interval for air brake system components. At a minimum,
the PP-7
valve should be inspected every 6 months or 1500 operating hours, whichever comes fi rst, for proper operation. Should the PP-7™ valve not meet the elements of the operational tests noted in this document, further investigation and service of the valve may be required.
OPERATING AND LEAKAGE CHECKS
To perform the following test, an accurate vehicle test gauge installed in a spare hose coupling is required. The vehicle dash gauge(s) should be checked for accuracy against the test gauge prior to making these tests.
1. Block or hold the vehicle by means other than the
service air brakes.
2. With the PP-7™ trailer supply valve button out and the
parking control valve in the exhaust, or brakes applied position, build the air system pressure to governor cut-out.
3. Apply a soap solution to the exhaust vent and the
plunger stem of the PP-7™ valve to check for leakage. Leakage should not exceed a 1 inch bubble in 5 seconds at either point.
4. Depress the control button of the PP-7™ valve and
apply a soap solution to the exhaust vent and the exhaust port. Leakage should not exceed a 1" bubble in 5 seconds at either point.
5. Install the test gauge and coupling on the trailer supply
coupling (tractor emergency hose coupling) at the rear of the tractor.
6. Place the tractor parking control valve in the “brakes
released” position and observe an immediate rise in pressure on the test gauge. The pressure registered on the test gauge should equal dash gauge or system pressure.
7. Apply a soap solution to the exhaust port of the PP-7™
valve. Leakage should not exceed a 1" bubble in 5 seconds.
8. With the tractor air system at governor cut-out pressure,
shut off the engine and note the dash gauge pressure. Quickly disconnect the test gauge and hose coupling from the tractor-trailer supply line coupling. Leakage from the tractor-trailer supply line should cease and
the button of the PP-7
valve should be out when the
pressure in the supply line drops below 40 P.S.I.
9. Reconnect the test gauge to the tractor-trailer supply line and depress the button of the PP-7™ valve. Open the drain cocks of No. 1 and No. 2 service reservoirs slightly. Note at what pressure (descending) the
button of the PP-7
valve pops out and exhausts the tractor-trailer supply line. This should occur between 20-45 P.S.I. air system pressure.
If the PP-7™ trailer supply valve fails to function as described or if leakage is excessive, it is recommended that it be returned to the nearest Bendix authorized outlet for a factory remanufactured valve. If this is not possible, the valve should be repaired using only genuine Bendix replacement parts, in which case the following should prove helpful.
NOTE: Bendix Maintenance Kit piece number 287367 is
available for the PP-7™ trailer supply valve from any authorized Bendix outlet. This kit contains all the necessary parts to completely repair the valve.
