According to ESCO, its Brake Safe is a simple, accurate and effective means of providing a visual of air-brake stroke travel, which helps drivers and fleets comply with CSA 2010 (Subpart C 393.53 “automatic brake adjusters & brake adjustment indicators”).
It is easily installed and takes the guesswork out of determining brake adjustments, the maker said. It totally eliminates the often difficult and always time-consuming procedure of crawling under a power unit or trailer to perform the daily pre-trip inspection measurements of brake adjustments, ESCO noted.
The Brake Safe system is available in two universal formats. One fits all power unit steering and drive axles while a second fits all trailer axles. Brake Safe can be installed on a brake chamber in 10 to 15 minutes using basic shop tools, the maker added.
