DESCRIPTION
The Bendix® SR-7™ spring brake modulating valve is used in
conjunction with a dual air brake system and spring brake
actuator and performs the following functions:
1. Provides a rapid application of the spring brake actuator
when parking.
2. Modulates the spring brake actuator application using
the dual brake valve should a primary failure occur in
the service brake system.
3. Prevents compounding of service and spring forces.
The valve has one park control, one service control, one
supply, one balance, four delivery NPTF ports, and an
exhaust port protected by an exhaust diaphragm. The valve
incorporates two mounting studs for mounting the valve to
the frame rail or cross member (where applicable).

OPERATION
The operation guidelines shown in this manual represent
the relay valve based SR-7™ (refer to system schematic
shown in figure 3). A quick release based valve functions
similarly to the relay valve based version with the exception
that all air delivered to spring brakes passes through the
park control port through the in-line single check valve. The
SR-7™ quick release style can be easily identified by the
pipe plug in the supply port of the valve.
