STABILITY SYSTEM REDUCES JACK-KNIFE OR ROLLOVER RISK
Sudden red air-line loss on a trailer can lead to an articulated lorry jack-knife. The Haldex EB+ trailer brake control and dynamic stability system can prevent this occurring. Haldex has produced a CD video that demonstrates the system. The video looks at the problems of sudden red air-line loss on a trailer and the potential dangers associated with it. It shows the Haldex EB+ stability control system using a pair of laden articulated lorries with stabilising safety out-riggers completing a range of tight manoeuvres.
