DESCRIPTION:
The Bendix
®
SR-1
™
spring brake valve is used in dual
or “split” air brake systems equipped with spring brake
actuators. The function of the SR-1 valve is to supply a
specifi c, limited hold-off pressure to the spring brakes, and
in the event of the loss of No. 1 service air pressure, to
modulate the spring brakes through the use of the service
brake valve.

specifi c, limited hold-off pressure to the spring brakes, and
in the event of the loss of No. 1 service air pressure, to
modulate the spring brakes through the use of the service
brake valve.
The valve has four identifi ed 1/4" N.P.T.F. ports and a
diaphragm protected exhaust port. Two 5/16" diameter
holes are provided in the integral mounting bracket of the
valve body. The SR-1 valve must be mounted with the
exhaust port down toward the road surface.

OPERATION - INITIAL AIR SYSTEM CHARGE
Air fl owing from the No. 1 reservoir only enters the reservoir
port of the SR-1 valve. This air remains under piston A as
system pressure builds. With No. 1 reservoir pressure
below approximately 55 P.S.I. the spring above piston A
forces it into contact with inlet and exhaust valve A causing
the exhaust to seal and the inlet to open. Refer to Figure 3.

system pressure builds. With No. 1 reservoir pressure
below approximately 55 P.S.I. the spring above piston A
forces it into contact with inlet and exhaust valve A causing
the exhaust to seal and the inlet to open. Refer to Figure 3.
With air system pressure above approximately 55 P.S.I. in
No. 1 & 2 service reservoirs, piston A has moved against
the force of the spring above it, allowing the inlet of valve A
to close and opening the hollow exhaust passage through
piston A. Refer to Figure 4.
