Anti-Lock Braking Function

Intelligent Trailer Safety Feature
  • Optimizes trailer control during emergency braking by preventing its wheels from locking and slipping on the road.
  • Wheel speed sensors automatically detect when a wheel is going to lock
  • Intervenes automatically and adjusts the brake pressure accordingly
 
Anti-Lock Braking Function

Rollover Stability Support

Intelligent Trailer Safety Feature
  • Helps stabilize the trailer in critical situations, significantly reducing the risk of dangerous rollovers.
  • Simultaneously monitors trailer wheel speed, lateral acceleration and cargo load
  • Detects when a trailer wheel is lifting and may lose contact with the ground
  • Automatically releases the brakes when the vehicle restabilizes
 
Rollover Stability Support

SafeStart

Alarm and Brake Interlock
  • Integrated features into trailer Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Roll Stability Support (RSS) that help prevent unsafe operation or unwanted trailer movement.
SafeStart Alarm
  • Helps prevent accidents and violations by sounding an alarm when the vehicle exceeds a preset programmed speed with the dump body extended
  • Product can help to prevent vehicle damage

SafeStart Brake Interlock
  • Automatically activates the trailer brakes when the sensor detects the control panel is open or the access point is not closed properly

TailGUARD

Intelligent Trailer Safety Feature
  • A rear blind spot detection system with active braking; now available for a wide range of applications. Active braking is enabled when paired with our Roll Stability Support on trailers.
  • Monitors stationary and moving objects behind the tractor and trailer to activate vehicle brakes and prevent collision
  • Activated when reversing, sensors monitor approximately 6 feet behind the vehicle and trigger trailer brakes automatically if the brake is not applied at 2 feet from the object
  • Protects equipment and facilities, improves rearward visibility and reduces risk for unintended collisions
