DESCRIPTION
The SR-5™ valve is a reservoir-mounted trailer valve that can control up to four spring brake actuators during parking or emergency applications. It has the following capabilities:
•Automatically applies trailer spring brakes in the event of a breakaway or trailer supply line failure.
•Protects trailer reservoir(s) air pressure in the event of a breakaway or trailer supply line failure.
•Allows no automatic trailer spring brake application with air pressure loss in trailer reservoir(s).
•Allows the trailer spring brakes to be applied and released repeatedly with a failed trailer reservoir(s):
•Optional anti-compounding-prevents an overriding service brake signal while the trailer supply line is at atmospheric pressure.
•Does not allow service system charging if a failure occurs in the parking brake circuit.

2 - 1/4"-18 Service Reservoir (SERV RES)
1 - Exhaust (EXH)
The SR-5™ valve appears very similar to the SR-2™ valve. Both valves consist of a die-cast aluminum body and cover, pressure protection valve, and reservoir-mounting nipple. However, Figure 1 notes the distinguishing characteristic of the SR-5™ valve–a hole drilled into the flat surface between the pressure protection valve and the body.

OPERATION
CHARGING BELOW 70 PSI (SEE FIGURE 3)
Air flows through the trailer supply line, enters the SR-5™ valve trailer supply port, and moves the control piston. The control piston contacts the control inlet/exhaust valve, sealing off the piston’s exhaust passage.
As piston travel continues, the control inlet valve opens. Air acting on the control piston also flows through passage A, unseating check valve B, and flowing past the open control
inlet valve. This air flows into the spring brake cavities, releasing the spring brakes.
CHARGING ABOVE 85 PSI (SEE FIGURE 4)
Air pressure acting on the control piston and flowing through passage A also acts on pressure protection valve C. At approximately 85 psi, valve C opens. This allows the air to flow past check valve D and charge the trailer reservoir(s). The trailer braking system is now in the normal run mode. Service braking occurs through the trailer service relay valve.
