EB+ 4.0
The latest trailer brake system
which offers a new modular approach
EB+ 4.0 is a new global electronic trailer brake system, covering multiple applications and markets. Newly developed trailer brake platform, with a new type of approval. The newly developed EB+ 4.0 trailer brake platform utilises a modular design strategy, where several separate functional modules can be configured into a system with the desired functional scope.
For example, the EB+ 4.0 can be equipped with a Safe Parking+ feature and Emergency Override feature. The integration of the spring brake control module into the EBS unit optimises the flow performance and allows fast spring brake application. Engineering grade plastic is used for most of the components in the new platform. That provides the end-user with a weight advantage and contributes to a smaller CO2 footprint. EB+ 4.0 modular design also improves the serviceability of the system, by offering the possibility to replace modules or retrofit them when the demand arises in certain markets.
The EB+ 4.0 system applies or releases the brakes by responding to electrical signals received from the brake pedal, which responds by using solenoids to modulate air pressure in a closed compressed air system connected to axle-mounted brake actuators. That design is maintained for service brakes. But unit’s new modular design provides additional features, as well as facilitating hardware and software customisation. Thanks to a new optional valve bank, extends electronic control for the first time to the parking (spring) brake side of the double-diaphragm brake actuator. Previously, connecting the red Suzie coil between truck and trailer would automatically release the parking brake if the red knob of the park and shunt valve is not activated. Now, the system provides additional control of that process, via the EBS ECU (electronic control unit) and an extra solenoid valve. The EB+ 4.0 supports a 12V and 24V voltage supply of the vehicle, thereby making it suitable for customers in all global markets.
Four different versions are available: a basic EBS with two modulators and two wheelspeed sensors with no emergency brake override; a basic EBS with emergency brake override; a premium EBS with two additional electrical interfaces, which can be extended to eight sensors and four modulators; and an additional modulator, which is used to map larger systems. As Standard, EBS+ 4.0 comes in a 2S/2M configuration suitable for fitment to three-axle semi-trailers.

What sets us apart
The EB+ 4.0 trailer brake platform utilises a modular design strategy, where several separate functional modules can be configured into a system with the desired functional scope. For example, the EB+ 4.0 can be equipped with a Safe Parking+ feature and an emergency override feature. The EB+ 4.0 is a 12 / 24V system with integrated roll-over control, intended for fitment to semi and centre axle trailers using air braking systems with air / mechanical suspension.
EB+ 4.0 is a new trailer brake system that offers you a new modular approach to specification as well as customisable application software.
