Two .28 inch mounting holes are provided in the die cast 
zinc body for panel or frame mounting. Two steel hex cap 
nuts at the ends of the cylindrical valve body retain the 
internal components. All air connection ports contain pipe 
threads. Lettering embossed in the valve body identifi es 
two of the four ports in the valve. Refer to the chart below 
and fi gure 1.

IMPORTANT: A vented, socket head vent plug is 
installed in some SS-1
 valves, however, an exhaust 
check valve should be installed in the threaded vent 
port when the SS-1
 valve is mounted outside the cab 
in unprotected environments. See Figure 2.
DESCRIPTION
The SS-1
 shut-off valve (fi gure 1) is a pilot operated,  
air controlled, on-off, non-graduating, non-exhausting 
pneumatic control valve. The valve is primarily used to 
delay, sequence, or control airfl ow from various devices in 
the air brake system. It can be operated either in a pilot or 
automatic mode using different air connection methods.
The SS-1
 valve is a general purpose valve used in a 
variety of applications on trucks, buses, tractors, trailers 
and converter dollies. It is offered in a variety of pressure 
settings to accommodate applications where automatic 
operation is required. The most common application of 
the SS-1
 valve is in the tractor protection system of a 
truck tractor. 
Important Note: The SS-1
 shut-off valve is 
application specifi c due to its pressure settings. It is 
therefore important to use the proper part number 
when replacement is required. 
IN ADDITION: The 
SS-1
™ 
shut-off valve and SV-1
 synchro valves are 
identical in appearance and similar in operation but 
have substantial internal differences and must not 
be confused or used interchangeably. 
The SV-1
 
synchro valve incorporates an internal exhaust passage 
through its piston, which allows delivery pressure to 
be vented to atmosphere while the SS-1
 does not. 
Refer to Service Data Sheet, SD-03-4020, for more 
information on the SV-1
 synchro valve. Service Data 
Sheets can be obtained by calling 1-800-AIR-BRAKE 
or by visiting www.bendix.com on the Internet.

Note: Either style may be installed in the SS-1
