controllers are members of a family of electronic
Antilock Braking System (ABS) devices designed to help improve
the braking characteristics of air braked vehicles - including heavy
and medium duty buses, trucks, and tractors. ABS controllers are
also known as Electronic Control Units (ECUs).
the braking characteristics of air braked vehicles - including heavy
and medium duty buses, trucks, and tractors. ABS controllers are
also known as Electronic Control Units (ECUs).
Bendix ABS uses wheel speed sensors, ABS modulator valves, and
an ECU to control either four or six wheels of a vehicle. By monitoring
individual wheel turning motion during braking, and adjusting or
pulsing the brake pressure at each wheel, the EC-60

able to optimize slip between the tire and the road surface. When
excessive wheel slip, or wheel lock-up, is detected, the EC-60

independently, and with greater speed and accuracy than a driver.
independently, and with greater speed and accuracy than a driver.
In addition to the ABS function, premium models of the EC-60
™
controller provide an Automatic Traction Control (ATC) feature.
Bendix ATC can improve vehicle traction during acceleration, and
lateral stability while driving through curves. ATC utilizes Engine
Torque Limiting (ETL) where the ECU communicates with the
engine’s controller and/or Differential Braking (DB) where individual
wheel brake applications are used to improve vehicle traction.
