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.

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.
