Control Unit

Control unit computes the acceleration, deceleration and slip factors as generated from rotating wheels through 4 speed sensors. Control unit program can determine correct response behavior of system based on these computations. Control unit response is sent by electronic signals to electromagnetically operated valves in ABS hydraulic unit.

The Control unit contains electronic monitoring circuits. These monitoring circuits ensure proper operation of the ABS. If the control unit detects a defect in the wiring harness or any electrical part of the equipment, the monitoring circuit will switch off ABS, permitting normal use of standard brake system. ANTI-LOCK indicator light will glow.
