6.1.15. Anti-blocking system of brakes (ABS)

The anti-blocking system of brakes (ABS) operates pressure in contours of brakes of all wheels for prevention of blocking of wheels at heavy braking. ABS provides:

– controllability the car at emergency braking;

– a car stop at emergency braking without leaving from the chosen trajectory of movement.

At failure detection in system diagnostics of malfunction and inclusion of a mode of safety is provided, the brake system works as standard.

The hydraulic and electronic control unit receives signals of sensors of speed of the car, a condition of a paving, the direction of movement and frequency of rotation of wheels.

The electronic control unit defines optimum frequency of rotation of a wheel.

Application of electronic system of distribution of brake forces in comparison with installation of the proportional valve provides ideal distribution of pressure in contours of lobbies and back brakes. As a result efficiency of braking considerably raises and blocking of back wheels is prevented.

Functional improvement of parameters of the main brake system.

Compensation of various factors of coupling a wheel with the road.

Exception of installation of the proportional valve.

Instructions on malfunction by means of a control lamp.
