units. Air is prevented from fl owing from the SR-4
 valve 
into reservoir #1 by check valve "C".  Air simultaneously 
fl ows into the PR-3
 pressure protection valve, (Type 1 
SR-4
 valve) or the second pressure protection piston 
(Type 2 SR-4
 valve). At approximately 70 psi piston "F" 
moves against the resistance of its spring, allowing air to 
fl ow through check valve "G" and into reservoir #1.
PARK APPLICATION
To apply the trailer spring brakes, the trailer supply line 
is exhausted by means of one of the cab controls. Air 
pressure is removed from the control piston and the 
internal pressure protection piston, closing the pressure 
protection valve and the spring brake inlet valve.
SERVICE SYSTEM FAILURE
If air pressure is reduced in the service system, pressure in 
the trailer supply line (and in the tractor) will be reduced until 
the internal pressure protection valve closes, maintaining 
50-60 p.s.i. in the trailer supply line and the tractor service 
reservoir. This will maintain 50-60 p.s.i. on the control piston 
which will keep the spring brakes released. At the same 
time, the reduction in pressure in the tractor system will 
sound the low pressure signal, alerting the driver. If the 
service failure is in the #2 reservoir, the air which passes 
the pressure protection valve will escape through the #2 
reservoir and will not be able to resupply the #1 reservoir. 
The #1 reservoir will retain full pressure because of the 
pressure protection check valve and check valve “B”. This 
reserve supply of air will provide at least one spring brake 
release after a manual application. Service applications 
may still be made until the air in the #1 reservoir is 
exhausted.
If the service failure is in the #1 reservoir, the pressure 
protection valve will close and allow air to supply the 
#2 reservoir. This air will be available to release the 
spring brake through check valve “B”, although service 
applications may not be made.
EMERGENCY APPLICATION WITH SERVICE 
SYSTEM FAILURE
To brake the trailer after a service system failure, the 
remaining 55 p.s.i. pressure in the trailer supply line may 
be exhausted either manually or automatically by the trailer 
supply valve or parking control valve. The spring brakes are 
then exhausted through the control piston and thus applied. 
Suffi cient pressure will be maintained in the trailer system 
to release the spring brakes at least once.
ANTI-COMPOUNDING OPTION
Under certain conditions when the tractor protection valve 
goes into the emergency mode during a service application, 
the trailer supply line will be exhausted but some air may 
be trapped in the service line, creating a service application 
plus a full spring application. This creates a false park 
situation and adds an extra load on the foundation brake 
components. This may be prevented by adding the optional 
anti-compounding piping as shown in Figs. 2 & 3.
