BrakeCheck is a decelerometer but what is a decelerometer ?
Decelerometers, also known as deceleration sensors or deceleration meters, are devices used to measure and quantify deceleration or negative acceleration. Deceleration refers to a decrease in velocity over time, and it is commonly associated with the braking or slowing down of an object or vehicle. Decelerometers are widely used in various applications, particularly in the automotive industry for safety and performance monitoring. They are often integrated into vehicles, specifically in systems such as airbags and electronic stability control (ESC) systems. These sensors play a crucial role in detecting sudden deceleration events, such as collisions or rapid braking, and triggering appropriate safety measures. The working principle of decelerometers typically involves the use of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. MEMS decelerometers consist of a tiny mass suspended on a spring-like structure. When subjected to deceleration forces, the mass moves relative to the sensor housing, causing a change in electrical output. This change is then measured and converted into acceleration or deceleration values. The output of a decelerometer is usually expressed in units of acceleration, such as meters per second squared (m/s²) or gravitational force (g). Some advanced decelerometers may also provide additional information, such as the direction of deceleration or rotational acceleration. Besides automotive applications, decelerometers can be found in other fields where the measurement of deceleration is important. For example, they are used in aerospace engineering to monitor the deceleration forces experienced during spacecraft re-entry or landing. They are also utilized in sports science to assess the impact forces on athletes during various activities, such as running or jumping. Overall, decelerometers are valuable tools for measuring and analysing deceleration forces in different contexts, contributing to safety, performance evaluation, and research in various industries. aide automotive market the BrakeCheck Decelerometer for automotive use in the UK MOT garages and HGV Brake testing.
Trailer Master Ultimate is designed to enable a single operator to test a trailer’s complete lighting system using the 24n and 24s power sockets, and to test the EBS warning light function on the trailer using the ISO 7638 socket.
Users can connect an air supply from a compressor in order to test the braking system, and test the service brake manually with the service brake switch or via the wired 15m remote control. The system features two glycerin-filled air gauges for service and emergency pressures.
“Connect the 24n and 24s sockets to the trailer then turn on the auto light test switch; the trailer lights will illuminate in a pre-set order for approximately 10 seconds each, allowing you time to check each light.
The sequence is as follows: left lights, left indicator, brake light, reverse light, fog light, right indicator, right lights.
The kit is equipped with three five-metre air hoses for yellow line, red line and air supply in; a 15-metre wired remote control for service brake operation; three five-metre electrical leads for 24n, 24s and ISO 7638; red and yellow line coupling adaptors; and a power supply cable (connect to fused 24-volt supply).
Portable 24 Volt Power Box with auto light test for testing your trailer electrical system.
Designed to enable one operator to test the complete trailer lighting system without the need to connect a tractor unit, using the 24N and 24s power sockets, and to test the ABS warning lamp function on the trailer using the ISO 7638 socket.
Using the remote control feature of the Trailer Master, makes testing trailer lighting systems less time consuming, alternatively operate form the face panel for auto test mode.
Charging the tester is very straightforward. Plug it into the mains and even if the unit is turned off the tester will charge the internal batteries from discharged to fully recharged in under two hours.
When the unit is turned on, you can quickly see how much power is still available, by the easy-to-read battery level meter.
aide automotive explained how it is optimising the performance of its products through recent investment in its in-house technological capability.
“Technology moves at pace and we are always looking how it can apply new tech to enhance their range of safety braking products,” said the company.
It has used millimetre wave radar for some years now, but as electronic components become smaller and smarter, it has continually moved with the times. Now, having invested in new machinery to assist with the placement of extremely small components onto circuit boards, the company says it is able to redesign and produce new boards to harness the power of the very latest electronic components and constantly improve the performance of products.
Among the safety braking products supplied by aide auto is CV Stop, which can automatically apply a vehicle’s brakes to prevent accidents if objects are detected in its path.
“The auto braking system – which is unaffected by rain, dust, snow or ice – has sensors fitted to both front and rear of the vehicle,” said aide automotive.
“These sensors constantly build up a picture of everything within its 50m range… Any object detected by the radar is checked for distance, angle and closing speed and based on this, the system informs the driver using a display and buzzer.
“If the driver ignores the warnings as the object/person gets into its danger zone, then the brakes automatically apply. The vehicle is then held stationary, giving the driver time to check mirrors and cameras to see if it is safe to carry on reversing or exit the cab to inspect the area.”
Commercial Vehicle can be individually programmed for each type of body fitted, which can include road sweepers, tar sprayers, refuse collection vehicles or any special-bodied vehicle such as a fire truck.
“CAN communication is standard, so it both listens and talks to the vehicle electronics allowing CV Stop to operate as one with other vehicle safety systems,” added the company
“Event or error data is also output to MDVR vehicle camera recorders, so if there’s an incident, we have an onscreen marker of how the system reacted, while you’re watching actual video footage. This vital safety feedback allows operators to examine in detail any near miss in the operating environment and provides hard evidence should it be required.”
